A number of US media reported today that US Vice President Joe Biden might’ve fallen asleep during President Barack Obama’s speech on Wednesday at George Washington University where the President spoke of the administration’s plans for tackling the national debt.
However, others believe that the vice president simply closed his eyes so that he may better focus on what Obama was saying and was most likely simply lost in thought for the 25–30 seconds when he had his eyes closed.
Biden has not yet commented publicly on the matter.
