This article describes how proud we Delawareans are of Sen. Biden, and includes this particular comparison to show how important he is:
"No one else except Caesar Rodney, who was there at the founding of the nation, is historically more significant than Joe Biden," said Carol E. Hoffecker, a Delaware historian and author of "Democracy in Delaware."
Ah yes, Caesar Rodney, the man so well remembered in Delaware that when his image was put on the state quarter people were overheard commenting, "Why on Earth did we put Paul Revere on our quarter?" and "I don't know why they chose Caesar Rodney. It's not even the largest high school in the state!"
