Jesus, I miss his eloquence, his comfort in relating to people.
Hes speaking at Harry Reids memorial. And I miss everything about having that kind of intelligence and grace in the forefront of government.
I love Joe. Hes a good president and good for this time. Still, everything in me relaxes when I am reminded there are people like Barack Obama in the world.

(6,690 posts)There are many with a good heart, good mind and willing to work hard for America and maybe even sound good behind the mic. However, they might not be willing or able to put themselves and their families into the chain saw of national politics.
I am surprised and exceedingly grateful that the Biden family was willing to brave the gauntlet for the good of America. I hope we never forget the sacrifice that was made.

(25,816 posts)he and Joe both have their hearts in the same place. I believe that, if Obama had not been half black,
and therefore resented by so many for his skin color, that he would have been more forceful in his
kickback against the white supremacist crowd. He was walking a racial tightrope, and did it with grace
and dignity.
