John Kerry said he believed President Barack Obama's administration was scandal-free during a discussion explaining his support for Joe Biden.
"I believe Joe Biden is the only person who has the set of relationships around the world, who has had this unbelievable breadth of experience as chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee and then as vice president for eight years — and in an administration, by the way, which never had a whiff of scandal," the former secretary of state said Friday on CNN.
Kerry, 76, endorsed Biden last month, citing the former vice president's experience. He also excused the Delaware Democrat's numerous slip-ups, saying, "Who hasn't done that over a lifetime? He is just honest, straightforward."
