I sent $25 to his campaign yesterday. He is not perfect, but he has empathy and life experiences that make him such a great candidate. He has the best shot at winning the rust belt states.

Speaking to those whove endured unimaginable loss, Biden said, Find a purpose, something that matters, particularly if its something connected to the loss you just had. . . . I get up in the morning and I think to myself every morning, is [Beau] proud of me? Am I doing what he wants? And Im sure that its the same way with you and a whole lot of other people.
He added that at a moment there will come a time when you think of the person you lost, and it takes a long while. But youll get a smile before you get a tear, and thats when you know youre going to make it. And so many people have gone through what Ive been through without the help I had.
Often chided for gaffes, Biden, we see, can be downright profound when discussing loss. Wrapping up, he explained, Sometimes its really dark, but there is hope. And think about what it means for those family members you have left they need you. They need you. And look, folks, thats why I think that it matters the stories of these people, for the public to understand that this is not just a statistic. This is this is who we are, who they are. I mean, its a and it really is about, you know, sort of reweaving that social fabric that holds a society together honesty, decency, hope, leaving nobody behind, giving hate no safe harbor.
