You are right very touching..
Watched it yesterday.
Incredible, such bravery exhibited by him.
Did you know that at one time the Democrats were seriously considering John Glenn as a VP candidate? He was passed over as a candidate because his wife stuttered.
Seems like just another dose of political hypocrisy. Business as usual.

That was not the main reason he was passed over as I recall. Study your history and read about HIS lack luster ability to energize crowds.Carter offered it to Mondale.
Glenn’s wife was not ecstatic about him being VP, though later reversed her feelings when he considered a presidential run.
He was a great senator and a great American.

He did run, for president. He wasn't pulled, he lost too many primaries. I'm trying to imagine just how many people you would have had to interview to know if his wife played a part.
Robo Admin deamed it moved from General Chit-Chat to the Attic. I don't think it belongs in the Attic that's where As the description of the section says: The Attic is the place where we put stuff we don't want our guests to see.
This section is for topics that either start off or degrade into controversy, ranting, fights, drama, or anything else that typically generates complaints from our user base.
(So if you are about to create a new topic, and you know that it will be controversial, then please do me a favor and create it in The Attic, not in General Chit-Chat.)
The primary purpose of The Attic is to offload General Chit-Chat a bit. But topics from other sections will be moved here if deemed necessary.
All global forum rules still apply in this section. This is not a free-for-all zone, but a way to limit negative exposure for users who want to subscribe to General Chit-Chat, but don't want to be bombarded with controversial topics on a daily basis.
This is a compromise.
Each user can make a decision to subscribe to either one of both of these sections.
Political posts are only allowed in the Attic. Posting politics in any other section (Main, GCC, etc.) will result in account suspension. That includes replies in existing topics and poisoning of other users' non-political topics with political replies.
Lastly, complaints about a topic moved to The Attic will also be moved to The Attic.
Well I put it in Chit Chat because I wanted everyone a chance to see it. I know some have unsubscribed from the Attic for obvious reasons. So what come back do we have? None UHH is a dictatorship run by Trump LOL
The advantage of having a stuttering problem is that they think before speaking. Trump could use a few lessons about thinking before opening his mouth.
In college one of my math instructors, a great guy, had days when he stuttered, it was painful to watch because there was no way I could help. The Biden/Teen story is so very human. Trump would say kid you are a F-n looser, shut up. Trump-Animal; Biden-Human.

This sorry comment is one reason this topic was moved to the Attic. It's astounding how left-wingers like you go out of your way to make something all about Trump.
Sorry to offend your god, Trump. FrumCA open your eyes to this man/child president. Trump is afflicted with not stuttering rather he has foot in mouth disease. Trump would have no compassion for a boy who stutters while Biden does.

This isn't about Trump. It's a feel good story that stands alone. Open YOUR eyes to being the fool you are for posting this nonsense. You should be proud of your God...not let your TDS consume you.

At one time I worked for a guy who stuttered, but he actually turned it to his advantage. One of his tasks was to train new sales persons. He would tell them he was a good teacher because he told them everything three times.

I dislike Biden intensely but I won't let that get in the way of a good story. Your comments are out of place, misinformed and very obnoxious but I won't let that get in the way of a good story, either.
