(131,231 posts)you didn't mean, but older people are often called "cute" or "adorable" or something like that, especially when they do something normally clever like a younger person would be expected to do (as if that old person shouldn't be able to do that thing, like a dog riding a bicycle, so it's surprisingly cute when they do), which really sets my teeth on edge. I'd call him warm, smart, competent and kind.

(9,941 posts)I can't imagine how he does it but I'm sure glad he does. He is probably the only person with the gravitas to take on this time in history.
I personally would have preferred a younger person but he was necessary.

Some people just are able to retain their energy as the years pile up.
Lucky for all of us Biden is one of those people because like you say he has the gravitas and Experience to lead us through these Extreme Times of Crisis.. that Fascism is knocking on the Door Loudly!

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
