Democratic presidential candidate Barrack Obama selected Senator Joseph Biden as his vice presidential nominee. Senator Biden is, without exaggeration, the worst possible pick for those who are hoping for anabolic steroid law reform (or any type of drug law reform for that matter). Biden was instrumental in the passage of the Anabolic Steroid Control Act of 1990 and the Anabolic Steroid Control Act of 2004 which he authored. His legislative record shows that Biden has been on an anti-steroid crusade for at least two decades.

Senator Biden has admitted that his anti-steroid zealotry originated with his failure to make the sports team in college; he was certain he was outperformed by some steroid user! As a senator, he has used his power and influence to get back at those superior athletes in sports who may have been using steroids. Of course, he is only figuratively punishing those athletes from his college days by criminalizing anabolic steroids for all individuals who use steroids for non-medical purposes.

Steroid.com has been critical of Senator Joseph Biden for some time for his crusade against anabolic steroids. Several “Injected” episodes have explored Biden’s anti-steroid fanatacism and the consequences of the Anabolic Steroid Control Act.
