Note
.  Obama, carrying out his vice presidential search, met with Sen. Biden during this visit (presumably on August 6th).  In an Dec. 22, 2008 appearance on CNN's Larry King Live, Biden described the meeting:

...then I got squirreled out to -- he was campaigning in Minneapolis-St. Paul.

And I got a phone call, would go masquerade myself out there?

They provided a plane for me and snuck me into this hotel.  And we spent three-and-a-half hours talking about the role of vice president.

And he said, "Well, it's down to you and somebody else."  And he said, "I'll give you a call later."
