I voted Republican all my life until 2016, but I am proud to support Joe Biden in 2020.

Biden stuttered as a child. Classmates called him “Bye-Bye,” mocking the way he said his name. It taught Joe to "be mindful of ppl in situations where their difficulties do not define their character, their intellect... You can’t let it define you.”

Joe married his wife Neilia in 1966. Their son Beau was born in 1969, followed by Hunter one year and one day later. Their daughter, Naomi, was born the following year. #MeetJoe
