Campaign 2012 Tidbits (8 of 16): Biden on Obama.



From Mark Halperin and John Heilemann’s Double Down – Game Change 2012 (New York: Penguin Press, 2013), p. 73:

When the shaken vice president returned to the White House once [his son] Beau was out of the woods [from a life-threatening stroke described in the press as minor], Obama came sprinting down the hall to embrace him.  Biden would tell this story to anyone who would listen, always stressing the same takeway: “People say this guy Obama is lacking in emotion – don’t buy it.”
