 Green Bay-- Vice President Joe Biden will be speaking at the National Railroad Museum on Sunday. Museum Curator Daniel Liedtke is making final preparations. With "National" in the name, Liedtke says the museum has seen plenty of political-types. Senator Rick Santorum made a stop earlier in the election cycle and former presidential candidate John Kerry came here prior to the '04 election.

   Bob Kiefert is the 1st Vice Chair of the Brown County Democrats. Kiefert says now that the RNC has wrapped up, Biden and the President can rebut some of the claims that came out of Tampa. "In many years in the past we have listened to a lot of these claims and tried to be nice and I don't think we really came out as forcefully as we could,"Kiefert said.

   Tickets to the Biden event are free. Any remaining tickets can be picked up until 9AM Sunday at the Museum. Doors open at 1PM, the event begins at 3PM. The general election is nearly two months away.
