For being a self-proclaimed foreign policy expert, Joe Biden sure gets a lot of facts wrong about foreign policy.

Most recently, claiming Iran has a population of 40 million people when it& #39;s actually over 80 million
It& #39;s not the first time he has messed up country populations...like when he said one of his plans would put 720 million women back into the workforce despite a US population of only 330 million
Biden also suggested a few weeks ago that Venezuela bordered Bolivia, which is actually 100s of miles away
It& #39;s not just populations and geography...After directly saying, “if I have any expertise, it’s in American foreign policy,” Biden referred to the G7 as the G8
Maybe that& #39;s why he keeps getting the big stuff wrong, like when he has repeatedly claimed that "China& #39;s not a problem"
Or when he opposed the raid on Osama bin Laden
No wonder President Obama& #39;s Defense Secretary Robert Gates said Biden has been wrong on nearly every foreign policy issue in the last 4 decades
And another fact wrong from the self-proclaimed expert.

In what was billed as a major foreign policy speech, Joe Biden confuses Iraq and Iran.

"The Iran parliament, the Iran parliament voted to eject all Americans and coalition forces from the country"
