Im trying to figure out why this has become a big deal.

Who exactly did you think leaked it in the beginning ???? it was a death bead discussion, the only people in that room were either Joe and Beau, or Joe, Beau and other blood relatives.

Joe Biden is Hussein's best possible job and life insurance policy - who would want to replace Hussein with the village idiot?

No more so than Reagan lol Honestly, he's no idiot and cares more about the middle class than anyone else. I am so tired of you guys talking about mental issues when you have no idea what you are talking about

I guess he shared that about his son to help make his burden lighter. I know I knew a woman, and not that well, that talked me through the death of her husband who did hospice at home. I read later that people are encouraged to talk about it. I just decided that I should be glad she felt comfortable enough to talk to me and that I was glad to be there for her once I realized the importance to her of what she had done.

Maybe he needs public support to say that it is OK not to run because I truly don't think that in SO many ways, that he wants the job.
Good for you for allowing this woman a safe space to express her grief. I mean that sincerely. By simply listening, you provided a service to that woman that was invaluable. It's uncomfortable for most of us to talk about death, so we pretend it isn't happening, and that leaves people who are going through the experience no place to express their fear and sorrow.

As for Biden, I think the term "leaked" is pejorative in this context. He talked about his son's dying wishes because it brought him comfort to speak of him. Leave it at that.

Democrats always have a calculated reason why they do things, this is no different.
