    He's not the best at reading the teleprompter, and the random jump cuts made me laugh.

    Still a good message though, regardless of whether or not I feel some of these top political "it gets better" videos seem a bit contrived, but one would think that if someone in such a position as him and others use the phrases "I promise" and stuff to LGBT Youth saying "It gets better", they would be more politically supportive of LGBT Equality.

    -Biden voted in favor of the Defense of Marriage Act but against the Federal Marriage Amendment. He supports states rights to establish civil unions.
    -Biden voted in favor of "Don't Ask Don't Tell", but more recently said that it would soon be repealed, adding that "no one asks if you're gay in a foxhole".
    -Biden favors adding sexual orientation to the criteria for a hate crime.

    Not a horrible rep concerning LGBT rights, but it could be better.
