By Toby Harnden In Charlotte, North Carolina PUBLISHED: 20:58 EST, 6 September 2012 | UPDATED: 22:48 EST, 6 September 2012 Vice President Joe Biden has declared that ‘America is coming back’ and delivered a powerful personal appeal for he and President Barack Obama to be re-elected to continue ‘a mission we will complete’. Biden, known for his verbal miscues, stuck closely to a script in which the White House had helped draw up with the aim of his offering personal testimony about Obama’s character, determination and dedication. ‘Folks, tonight, I want to tell you about Barack Obama,’ he said. ‘The Barack Obama I’ve come to know. I want to show you the character of a leader - who had what it took, when the American people stood at the brink of a new Depression. A leader who has what it takes to lead us over the next four years - to a future as great as our people.’
