Biden reacts to Kobe Bryant's death: 'It makes you realize you gotta make every day count'

Biden said he didn't know Bryant well and "only met him a couple times."
"But you know it makes you realize you gotta make every day count," he said. "Every single solid day, every single day count."

The presidential candidate was set to speak at the Urban Dreams, a nonprofit serving the underprivileged, when the crowd was informed of Bryant's death, with reports from NBC News saying that led to "audible gasps."
The audience was then led in a moment of silence for his passing.

The former Los Angeles Lakers guard died at 41 in a helicopter crash outside of Los Angeles, according to multiple reports. The other four passengers on the helicopter also died


Thank-you Joe ...for person that you are....
