Biden spending Thanksgiving raising money for underprivlidged children.
On Thanksgiving Day, the Bidens will volunteer at the Machine Shed Restaurant, located at Living History Farms in Urbandale. This free Thanksgiving event is open to the entire Des Moines community and the benefits go towards a summer camp for underprivileged children – sponsored by the Living History Farms.

Where the politicians will be for Thanksgiving:

Michael Bloomberg serves meals, visits those who will be working on the holiday, and attends the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.

Rudy Giuliani marches in the Salem Holiday Parade in Salem, New Hampshire.

N.J. Senator Robert Menendez attends a football game between Union Hills and Emerson high schools, Mid-Town Athletic Complex, Union City New Jersey.

John McCain is in Iraq.

Joe Biden serves a meal at the Machine Shed Restaurant outside Des Moines.

Chris Dodd volunteers in Iowa.

Hillary Clinton, John Edwards, Barack Obama, Mike Huckabee and Mitt Romney celebrate in their respective home towns.

8. It looks like Dodd is too, depending on what "volunteers" means.
To be fair, I'd count McCain going to Iraq as doing good service on the holiday, too.

2. Really nice people!
They understand the meaning of giving and caring.

And by the way, what is the Clinton's home town, NYC, DC? Family get together one assumes, same with the Edwards, Obamas. Sorry, just felt snarky. I do like the other candidates, just not for president.
