Biden took office on January 3, 1973, at age 30, becoming the fifth-youngest U.S. Senator in United States history. He was later reelected five times. Biden calls himself pro-choice and opposed president [[George W. Bush]]'s two nominees to the U.S. Supreme court. However, he has voted in support of banning partial birth abortions and was given a 36% rating from the pro-[[abortion]] group NARAL, indicating a mixed voting record. In 1998 he voted for a Balanced-budget constitutional amendment and the GOP budget. Biden is a strong proponent of 2nd-amendment rights. He was rated F by the National Rifle Association. Biden has also voted to give Social Security benefits and citizenship to illegal aliens. On the [[War in Iraq]], Senator Biden is too the right of his fellow Democratic opponents for the [[2008 Presidential Election]]. He voted for the war in 2002, but is now a war critic. He has voted against setting a timetable for troop with drawl and is against cutting off funding for the troops on the ground. However, he opposed President Bush's plan to send an additional 20,000 troops to Iraq in January 2007. Biden is a long-time member of the U.S. Senate Committee on the Judiciary, which he chaired from 1987 until 1995 and served as ranking minority member from 1981 until 1987 and again from 1995 until 1997. He almost never supports a supreme court nominee who's not in his party and presided over two of the more contentious U.S. Supreme Court confirmation hearings ever, Robert Bork in 1987 and Clarence Thomas in 1991. Biden is also long-time member of the U.S. Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, currently the chairman.
