US History according to Joe Biden:

"When the stock market crashed, Franklin Roosevelt got on the television and didn't just talk about the princes of greed," Biden told Couric. "He said, 'Look, here's what happened.'"

Um, no. The television was yet a dream in the eye of American consumers, and Herbert Hoover had been elected less than a year before. But hell, Al Gore invented the internet and John McCain invented Blackberries, why couldn't FDR have invented TV?

I hear Abe Lincoln sent out the Emancipation Proclamation by text message too.
