I want to see that pic of Joe Biden shaking hands with Lincoln in 1865.
He can remember it like yesterday.
He was a wee lad, just out of High School where he lead his Rounders team in the state championship. He was fresh out of training and he had joined the Delaware 1st Grenadiers. It was a slave state a border state, but he loved America and he Loved old Abe.
He was stationed in the Capital City, they called DC that in those days, and he had the rare occasion to carry correspondence for General Winfield Scott Hancock, old Hancock the Superb himself, when he happened upon Mr.Lincoln on the steps of the U.S Capital Building.
He noticed that President Lincoln had dropped a piece of paper on his way into the building. Being a good Pro-Union Soldier he retrieved the paper and made his way into the Captital and returned the document to the President.
It was actually the only copy of the Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution that Lincoln had.
Joe actually was responsible, in at least a small way, in freeing the slaves.
Ah, yes. The good old days when Joe was young.
