ELM GROVE, Wis. - Patrick Proctor Brown says the war in Afghanistan was lost within a year of its start. Biden, the father of an Iraq War veteran, often closes his speeches with a short prayer for U.S. troops. It also heaps pressure on Biden to fulfil policy promises and perfect the political outreach to veterans getting underway. Biden also flipped New Hampshire’s Rockingham County, home of Portsmouth and the U.S. Navy’s oldest continuously operating shipyard. “And Afghanistan is a yesterday.”___Associated Press writer Lolita C.
