DOVER, Del. (AP) _ Democratic vice presidential nominee Joe Biden received
five student draft deferments during the Vietnam War, the same number of
deferments received by Vice President Dick Cheney, and later was
disqualified from service because of asthma as a teenager.
Officials with Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama's campaign
released Biden's Selective Service records at the request of The Associated
Press. Less detailed records were available from a National Archives
facility in Philadelphia.
