In any sane society, Obama would indeed be regarded as one of the most respected and popular politicians in the world. America is, however, not such a society. Anyone from the "Obama team" is therefore not going to be able to "unite the country", through no fault of their own.

The main problem with Biden is that he is old. Otherwise his head is in the right place if he will try to unite the country as he has always done during his career. He also comes from the Obama team and considering that Obama was really fucking good all the propaganda aside that is a big plus. (He is actually considered to be the most respected/popular politician in the world right now)
