Introduction
Kumbaya! Join me as I examine what roles Biden has taken part in American democracy in the big picture, a dive quite deeper into his story and a recap of what the part of American public more-or-less his generation may have forgotten about his political career, as well as what present generations in general (my generation) may likely not know about this noble man, father and politician.
A disclaimer: Scope of this text does not cover his role in liberating different individual marginalized communities and groups in depth as those are his journey that necessarily takes up a story for another day.
But despite that,
May this be of value to inspire the example that Biden had lived.
“We must be truthful to call them [most Republicans] out for their being pro-capitalist, ultra-rich, and anti-underprivileged fellow[wo]men at the same time,
“and, on racial aspect, anti-underserved, marginalized individuals as well.”
Since Biden has assumed Office as #POTUS, many bad actors in US society alone had been blurting out cynical criticisms of his every official actions, as with his speeches too. Fiendish silhouettes of all forms in the background of political and civic landscape are “always” waiting to maliciously justify how much he’s doing wrong to the American people, as if one is in the right in demanding perfection from him who’s still just a human being and doing his best within the bounds of rule of law—and considering, too, that in fact, Joe Biden, (just dig beneath all the smokescreen of lies intentionally demonizing his character and you will see that) he is trying to do his best for the public’s interest—though not as eloquent as he is unlike in his younger years.
But, especially that almost everyone nowadays seems to forget even what just happened a short time a little earlier than any given moment (as if some sort of lack of presence of mind, even significant discussions in earlier in conversations worth noting many seem to have difficulty having in mind in active thought-process), that, quite oblivious to many, Biden has a long history of proving how much he is concerned for many’s vulnerabilities and on notions that have to do with inclusivity. I don’t think that any person reasonable enough—and aware enough about his background—wouldn’t credit how significant his life-long political career had been; humble beginnings as a 27-year-old Council Member of New Castle County in 1970, then he represented Delaware in the U.S. Senate spanning 36 years before he served as Vice-President of the United States during Obama’s lead in state-federal governance.
It must be said that such type of politicians Obama and Biden are belongs to statesmen and -women who have “democracy and rule of law as a way of life,” especially democracy.
PERSONAL EXPERIENCE WITH DEVASTATING LIFE’S CHALLENGES
Biden has undergone losses just like normal people have, unlike those his stature but (completely) lacking true relatability to those experiencing human difficulties and struggles, even feasting on economically disadvantaged’s unfair situations in fact. (Where has true fairness, justice and foundational democracy in America gone to recently?, I wonder.).
Upon assessment, if you come to think of it, Biden’s character, apart from consciously, that is, more than usual people would consciously commit to) and understand, does fundamentally identify with the grieving ones, those broke, the low in spirit, things, more specifically, weaknesses that make anyone law-abiding very much human, still; i.e., a capability to understand and feel with sensitivity, and relate to what those going through grief and irreplaceable loss/es may be feeling, including agony. Simply, a conduct of putting one’s foot in shoes of another person’s downcast situation. He’s gone through that too.
RESULT OF PERSPECTIVE ON AND FAMILIARITY WITH LOSS
Joe’s political career had always been characteristically capitalized on inclusivity, not exclusivity inherent in a lot of right-wing politicians who we must be truthful to call them out for their being pro-capitalist, ultra-rich, and anti-underprivileged fellow[wo]men at the same time, and, on racial aspects, anti-underserved, marginalized individuals as well.
Accounts of Biden’s selfless advocacy for different peoples—and not only fellow humans but other forms of life and nature as well had been a life of fulfilment and “going out of oneself” for Biden. I am sure that today those stretches of his concern outside his self is well-know and thus I leave it to publications more dedicated at covering with a closer look his such lead, but never those who stalk the President in efforts just to try to invalidate his credibility.
AN ADVERSARY OF ANARCHY
Aside from inclusivity, Joe Biden’s brand also means cracking down on bullies. He has grown up standing against bullies in ways characterized with rule of law, even up to his political career he remained so. As a matter of fact even up ‘til today Joe’s brand is the same confrontation against bullies, i.e., taking on against Putin’s coercive stunts, especially his and Russian alienation over sovereignty of smaller, neighboring nation’s borders.
In Putin’s most present, “delirious” devouring (I have to say this adjective emphasized with quotation marks; someone has to) of Ukraine's border, Biden was exactly the right and most qualified person for the role of lead at calling out Putin’s bullying of smaller nations. (Besides the United States voted, implied and, especially, express, by many prominent, noble views and philosophy had shaped the US’s role in the world fundamentally so albeit being a Superpower too like authoritarian [as contrast], other police states.) Moreover, during Obama’s time Biden, as Vice-President, already had information about Russia’s doings under the command of you-know-who-likes-alienating-his-neighbor’s-doorstep, and militarily gatecrashing multiple former Soviet republic’s previous captives.
As a person who’se character has strong emphasis on democracy and rule of law, no wonder Biden inevitably goes head to head against an authoritarian dictator, i.e., those fundamentally in despise of against values of democracy and it’s associated values for free speech, of expression and of the press—of course, necessarily—within the bounds of rule of law.
MORE ON HIS LIFE’S CHALLENGES, HIS EARLIEST STRUGGLES IN FACT
For the sake of genuine honesty, maybe this is literally and currently the least among his traits presented in this blog, by public awareness as context, matter-of-factly.
Biden, in relation to his crackdown against bullies mentioned above, had stuttering at early stage of his development. As he was growing up, he had to deal with the struggles of being afflicted with stuttering, along with bullies that may lurk like vampires sucking optimism out of weaker human beings’ peace of mind as their source of pleasure. And he coped.
That had been how his life was as he grew up. The procedural process in his social environments taught him a commitment to stand up against bullies and this character of his had been deeply ingrained in his character. Less people know this about the President, lesser, still, as regards physical affliction he’d undergone.
But of course the Joe Biden brand is also characteristic of perseverance, that is, in dealing, too, with his disability, his perseverance to overcome it.
HIS BRAND’S WAYS OF MAKING A WAY
Everyday he practiced reciting reading materials in front of the mirror to correct his speech. And over time, he did really make a difference.
This affliction from his earlier life is still quite indicative today in some of his speeches when he sometimes blabber inaudible words which his critics would be more than happy to make fun of, unreasonably attacking his competence on his job as President of the United States. But despite fractional moments when a glitch is waving at how he speaks, notice what his sudden effort to get the words across or by immediately repeating so indicates; he perseveres as best as he can to deliver that particular part to continue the flow of his public address.
What life Biden had lived had made him see from the perspective of people who experience difficulties and struggles. It had shaped how he connects with depth to those who’re undergoing hardships.
As with loss.
AN EVEN GREATER BROKENNESS: GRIEVING HIS FIRST LOSS OF A LIFETIME
In 1972, upon winning his first opportunity to serve as Mayor, a life disaster had struck his family. His wife, Neilia, and children had undergone a fatal car accident, leaving him widowed and lost his daughter, Naomi Biden, too, while his kids, Hunter and Beau, hospitalized. He had to persevere continuing to serve as Delaware’s Senator while at the same time looking after them at Wilmington General Hospital. announcing that the moment he failed as a father to his children, he would resign from his official position—as their conditions were severe from the crash, and, in fact, he had to operate governin his official functions in the hospital that time for six months.
That magnitude of loss of a lifetime grieving for loss of his wife and daughter and medical incapacitation of his kids at that time had given Biden the perspective to understand from the point of view of those in principle psycho-socially handicapped due to dilemma of people important to them. That was what made more appropriately justified, figuratively metaphorical, his particular role predicated upon symbolically addressing recognition of certain public and personal grievances as Vice-President during Obama’s term as President, especially an envoy sent to particular communities where Obama, clearly being a Black President, would have otherwise enraged the constituents of a predominantly white sector or community instead of evolving the appropriate collective reaction. (And I do think that their contrast of essentially white (not red necks) and black Democrat/moderate, was the right mix of public servants in the top US Executive official positions.)
Biden hadn’t only been fundamentally an icon for Persons With Disability in truth, but for grievances as well, essentially.
THE LIFEGUARD HE EVER IS
During Joe’s young adult years he'd had duty as a lifeguard, i.e., dealing with diverse groups of people. This part of his upbringing before he came to politics had inculcated on him much people skills; the socialization process of being exposed to differing people of and groups with diverse backgrounds, aside from his character basically understanding from point of view of struggling, broke people to begin with, had instilled in him more interpersonal capabilities to connect with others, diametrically opposite an untouchable, non-relatable somebody who grew up as an arrogant, spoiled rich-kid.
In fact this background of Joe Biden also made, in part, why it was appropriate for role of Presidential envoy to send State recognition of public and personal grief as this had to deal with immersing closer with people down to the community just like when he was that young adult lifeguard.
That immersion to a variety of differing citizens with differing backgrounds had made him a naturalist as regards public dialogue with broader, diverse types of people, and dialogue that—it must be said—does not feel distant. Occurring side-by-side with this socialization process is his attainment of understanding of other people’s shared experiences and living conditions.
Being a public’s lifeguard now that he’s President Of The United States, metaphorically manifests itself in what his student loan forgiveness saving citizens who’d been drowning in debt from predatory student loans, and of the world’s lifeguard like in approving exportation to Asia emergency US federal oil reserves to lower oil prices which had been felt here in Asia.
With the life of good examples Joe had been yielding from the past up to present, in fact, divine examples, as his deeds had shown God-fearing deeds of what Divine wisdom may want for the better of weak, vulnerable and marginalized, innocent people and communities, philosophically; but we must keep in mind that he’s still an imperfect human being essentially of nature that, universally, may somehow still do something in error, inevitably. But just consider how much far improved his temperance, virtues and prudence is compared to those who are innately corrupt in heart, soul and spirit, and those anarchic commentators who fiendishly want to tear down his credibility so just they’d be beneficiaries of or profiteers from downfall of when those representing democracy, equality and similarly great principles and virtues, but never as use twisted for anarchy and those against rule of law to be operating under privilege.
Final Note:
I’m an advocate of democracy, and of freedom of speech and of expression.
