Joe Biden

I'll be honest, what gets me about Joe Biden isn't the polish, it's the sheer stubbornness. Here's a kid from blue-collar Scranton who showed up in the Senate at thirty and basically never left Washington, riding that Amtrak back to Delaware like a commuter dad. Decades in the Senate, eight years as Obama's VP, and finally the top job in his late seventies, which is wild stamina by any measure. But what really sticks with me is the grief running through his story, the losses he's lived through and written about so plainly in books like Promise Me, Dad. Whatever you think of his politics, you can't fake that kind of resilience. He's the guy who keeps getting knocked down and just keeps showing up, and I find that weirdly admirable.
