WASHINGTON, May 2 (UPI) -- U.S. Vice President Joseph Biden and his wife, Jill, hosted 40 people Wednesday at a Cinco de Mayo breakfast at their official residence in Washington.
In a brief speech before the guests dug into tortilla Espanola, an egg and potato dish, and chorizo or Spanish sausage, Biden acknowledged the party was three days early on "Dos de Mayo." He said the day "exemplifies the spirit that still unites our two countries."
