On official visit to Mongolia, VP Joe Biden is gifted with a horse

During his tour of China, Vice-President Joe Biden stopped in Mongolia, where someone presented him with a gift horse. "As dictated by Mongolian tradition, Biden then entrusted it to the care of a local herder. (Sorry, no pool photos of him wrestling it into the overhead on Air Force Two). One of Biden's aides solemnly informed reporters that in Mongolia 'a horse is one of the most meaningful gifts that can be given." (The New Yorker)
