Nice story about Joe visiting the Football Hall of Fame
I guess he saw a former football player's memorial (the player was in the Vietnam War as well) and got very emotional as the player came to the hospital to visit Beau and Hunter after they were in the car accident. I love Joe, he is not afraid to show emotion unlike McLame who seems like a robot or Shrub who just seems confused all the time. Here is the link:

2. Thanks for the link
That's a great story. I also admire his ability to show emotions. Biden is a good man.

6. This is very important, believe it or not!

Aside from the beauty of it, a more political issue:

The overwhelming majority of NFL players ( who vote or affiliate with any party) are Republicans. If Obama/Biden can get through to them, they would be very influential.
