Joe Biden has been in the public spotlight for nearly half a century, having first been elected to office in 1972. He's no stranger to American voters, who elected him as the 46th President of the United States in November 2020 after 36 years in the United States Senate and two stints as Vice President under Barack Obama.
The father of four (Hunter, Ashley, and late children Beau and Amy) is as well known for his landmark career legislation, including the 1994 Violence Against Women Act, as he is for his relatable blue-collar roots. He's often the subject of viral memes about his perceived "bromance" with Obama, or the signature aviator sunglasses he's worn since he was a lifeguard in the 1960s. Here are ten additional facts about the president that you may not be aware of:
#5. He overcame a childhood stutter.
Biden claims he was bullied mercilessly as a boy in Scranton, Pennsylvania, because of a "debilitating" stutter. In a 2008 speech to the American Institute for Stuttering, he said, "I can think of nothing else that has ever stripped me of my dignity as swiftly, as profoundly, and as thoroughly as when I stuttered in primary school."
In his 2008 memoir, he told about how a nun teacher mocked him, calling him "Mr. Bu-bu-bu-Biden," prompting him to walk out of class one day. "If you ever speak to my kid like that again," he added, "I'll come back and rip that bonnet from your head." His mother, Catherine Finnegan Biden, later addressed the instructor, he said, telling her, "If you ever speak to my son like that again, I'll come back and rip that bonnet off your head."
Biden has stated that he overcome his stammer by reading and reciting Irish poems in front of a mirror to monitor and control his facial deformities, especially those by William Butler Yeats. He can still recite long parts of Irish poetry from memory to this day.
#4. He was a high school football star.
Biden, who played wide receiver and halfback for the unbeaten Archmere Academy football team in 1960, was a leading scorer on the elite Catholic school's undefeated football team. In November 2020, one of his teammates, Michael Fay, told The New York Times, "He was the man who was the main pass catcher." "Throwing the ball was nearly a sin when we were seniors in 1960. But in eight games, he caught seven or eight touchdown passes, which was a lot back then."
Biden's former coach, E. John Walsh, praised him as "one of the best pass receivers I had in 16 years as a coach" in 2008.
#3. He has two dogs.
Champ and Major, Biden's two German Shepherds, will be joining him and his wife, Jill Biden, in the White House in January. Major was rescued from the Delaware Humane Association as a puppy by the Biden family in 2018. Champ, who was named by their grandchildren and is now 12 years old, has already spent time at the White House, visiting the family in Washington, D.C. during his tenure as vice president under former President Barack Obama.
Champ and Major may have a kitty roommate in their new home. Following Dr. Biden's indication that she'd "love to get a cat" if her husband were elected president, CBS Sunday Morning's Jane Pauley revealed in late November 2020 that the plan to get a cat was already in the works.
#2. He is a car aficionado.
As a wedding gift, Biden's father, Joseph Biden Sr., a former car dealership manager, financed a green 1967 Corvette Stingray, which the president still drives. As a Christmas present, his boys had the engine restored. "I adore this vehicle. In an August 2020 Twitter video, Biden said, "Nothing but amazing recollections." "I think about my father and Beau every time I walk in." "Oh, my God, could my father drive a car."
#1. He’s a practicing Catholic.
Biden, who keeps Beau's rosary in his pocket and attends Sunday Mass on a regular basis, will be the United States' second Catholic president after John F. Kennedy. He included the Catholic song "On Eagle's Wings" during his November 2020 presidential victory address, which he stated was important to his family and his late son Beau, who died of brain illness in 2015.
"It encapsulates my faith, which I feel also supports America. And I hope and hope that I can offer some relief and comfort "Before delivering verses from the song, he informed the audience. "And he'll carry you on the breath of dawn, raising you on eagle's wings. Make you glow like the sun, and he'll hold you in his palm.
