Joe Biden bursts from twilight of career の上に biggest 行う/開催する/段階

Former vice president Joe Biden has become the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee with Bernie Sanders' decision to drop out of the race

Former 副/悪徳行為 大統領,/社長 Joe Biden has become the presumptive Democratic 大統領の 指名された人 with Bernie やすりを削る人/削る機械s' 決定/判定勝ち(する) to 減少(する) out of the race

He has been scarred by 悲劇 and failed 大統領の runs, つまずくs while speaking, and is 77. But that same backstory, coupled with 無敵の Washington experience, is 正確に/まさに what Joe Biden bets will 勝利,勝つ over Americans tired of his polar opposite -- Donald Trump.

If Trump brought brash and bombast to the White House, 難破させるing everything from 条約 to international 条約s along the way, Biden 申し込む/申し出s 安心.

Best known as the 副/悪徳行為 大統領,/社長 under Barack Obama, he wants 民主党員s -- and maybe wavering 共和国の/共和党のs -- to feel they can rewind to pre-2016.

With his white hair, 井戸/弁護士席-削減(する) 控訴s and every bit the 空気/公表する of a longtime 上院議員 Biden is the fatherly or grandfatherly 人物/姿/数字 静めるing a nation on the 瀬戸際 of a nervous 決裂/故障.

So while Trump derides him as "Sleepy Joe," Biden bets that after the 共和国の/共和党の's 騒然とした 統治する, Americans wouldn't mind a bit of a 残り/休憩(する) after all.

Tr ump succinctly 要約するs his politics as "winning, winning, winning."

Biden, who became presumptive 民主党員 指名された人 Wednesday after the 撤退 of Bernie やすりを削る人/削る機械s, (人命などを)奪う,主張するs to be reaching for something deeper: "a 戦う/戦い for the soul of America."

- Long road -

Trump is 73, but Biden will turn 78 すぐに after the November 選挙, which would make him the oldest 大統領,/社長 ever to take office.

Elected one of the youngest 上院議員s in US history, then 副/悪徳行為 大統領,/社長 for eight years under America's first 黒人/ボイコット 大統領,/社長, Biden is like living history.

Along with those successes have come humiliating flops, 顕著に his 1988 and 2008 White House 企て,努力,提案s when he failed to 勝利,勝つ a 選び出す/独身 明言する/公表する 最初の/主要な.

Even this time, his run looked 運命にあるd for 災害 after losses to the fiery やすりを削る人/削る機械s in Iowa, New Hampshire and Nevada.

But Biden (機の)カム roaring 支援する in South Carolina's 最初の/主要な on the strength of 圧倒的な 支援 from African-American 投票者s, a 決定的な base of Democratic support.

"For those who have been knocked 負かす/撃墜する, counted out, left behind, this is your (選挙などの)運動をする," Biden 宣言するd.

- Human 味方する -

Biden's message is built 大部分は on his 協会 wi th the still popular Obama and his 穏健な politics in a time of 同志/支持者 divide.

But where he stands out の中で other Washington old-timers is in showing a painfully human 味方する that contrasts starkly with Trump's all-征服する/打ち勝つing, never-疑問ing style.

Biden's first wife, Neilia Hunter, and one-year-old daughter, Naomi, died in a car 衝突,墜落 in 1972 while Christmas shopping, just weeks after Biden had 反抗するd the 半端物s and won 選挙 to the 上院 from Delaware.

The 事故 left his two sons, Joseph "Beau" Biden III, 4, and Robert Hunter Biden, 2, 不正に 負傷させるd, and the 30-year-old Biden was sworn in to the 上院 beside their hospital beds.

Biden met his second wife, Jill Jacobs, a schoolteacher from Pennsylvania, in 1975 and they married two years later. They have a daughter, Ashley, born in 1981.

Both boys 回復するd from their 傷害s and Beau followed his father into politics, becoming 弁護士/代理人/検事 general of Delaware a nd 熟視する/熟考するing a run for 明言する/公表する 知事 before dying of brain 癌 in 2015 at the age of 46.

For all of his エリート Washington status, Biden's perseverance has struck a chord with many Americans in more humble 職業s. On Wednesday, during an online Q&A with 支持者s, he returned to the 主題, 引用するing Britain's World War II 首相 Winston Churchill: "If you´re going through Hell, keep going."

- The other son -

Biden retells these family stories so often that, にもかかわらず his obvious grief, they have become part of a political brand.

But his younger son Hunter is another 事柄.

With a checkered career as a lawyer and lobbyist, Hunter Biden got a lucrative salary serving on the board of a Ukrainian gas company (刑事)被告 of 汚職 while Biden was 副/悪徳行為 大統領,/社長.

Hunter Biden, who has 認める to alcohol and 麻薬 中毒, was never 告発(する),告訴(する)/料金d in any 罪,犯罪.

The ウクライナ共和国 事件/事情/状勢 was at worst, Biden 同盟(する)s say, bad 視覚のs.

Trump, however, believed he'd 設立する a 立候補-殺人,大当り 欠陥. Last year, he 押し進めるd ウクライナ共和国's then new 大統領,/社長, Volodymyr Zelensky, to 調査/捜査する Hunter's past and sent his own lawyer, former New York 市長 Rudolph Giuliani, on 隠しだてする dirt-digging 使節団s.

It was this zeal that 結局 led to Trump's 告発 on 告発(する),告訴(する)/料金s that he used his 外交政策 力/強力にするs to try and 利益 his reelection (選挙などの)運動をする.

Trump calls the 告発(する),告訴(する)/料金s, which were thrown out by the 共和国の/共和党の-led 上院, a "hoax."

But although the 告発 is now over and ウクライナ共和国 has 静かに moved on, 拒絶する/低下するing to 調査(する) Hunter, Trump will undoubtedly weaponize the 問題/発行する at every 適切な時期 権利 up to 選挙 day.

- 'Uncle Joe' -

Joseph Robinette Biden Jr was born on November 20, 1942 and raised in Scranton, Pennsylvania, in an Irish-カトリック教徒 family. His father was a car salesman.

Biden touts his blue-collar roots on the (選挙などの)運動をする 追跡する and 解任するs that he was 妨害するd as a child by a stutter so bad he was cruelly 愛称d "Dash."

He overcame the 条件 a nd (機の)カム to see it as a blessing that he said 許すd him "insight into other people's 苦痛."

As "Uncle Joe," he is known for his personal warmth and folksy manner. But he also has a propensity for public gaffes, and his often rambling 配達/演説/出産 on the (選挙などの)運動をする 追跡する has raised questions over his mental agility.

Biden's 10年間s-long political career will make it 平易な for Trump to 最高潮の場面 errors and embarrassing moments, not least the 民主党員's support for the now hugely 人気がない Iraq war.

But longevity has also given Biden an advantage -- there are few 骸骨/概要s left in the closet. And in a time of 騒動, his (人命などを)奪う,主張する to experience may 証明する alluring.
