Biden and Buttigieg, two devout Christians - Biden a Catholic and Buttigieg initially Catholic and now Episcopalian.

I had the good fortune to know Beau. He was a fraternity brother at my University and good friends with friends of mine and I got to know him. Also met Joe and Jill over the years and the couple of times he spoke at graduations and was on Campus for events.

Biden was sincere when he said this and meant it....I felt it and it made me cry.

and once it ended I went back to the beginning and watched again (it was about 12 minutes).

I'm sure it'll be on Youtube sometime later tonight.
