well-meaning man with a poor memory if you read because he couldn't allegedly remember the year that beau died if you read the acknowledgments of promise me dad the very first paragraph i'm going to i'll just paraphrase i don't have in my head he says like look this a very difficult period for me to revisit. and as such, some of my memories were foggy and i had people help me kind of reconstruct the period and establish chronology and that seemed so understandable and relatable to me. any one of us of any age who has lived through the the slow illness and death of a loved one knows that the mind plays tricks on you. you don't want to remember certain things. you know did. my sister die in 2009 or 2011. i remember. i don't know. right. and and i just think of being so fiery and defensive about that moment. i thought if had said something like that, that he had already written, you know, i would have understood it really well. so i think acknowledging that section is like can tell you a lot. sometimes it's it can be know funny or it can be profound. i want one thing so obviously i think you

beau dies in 2015 . agonizing decision about whether to run in 2016.nd then, and i take president biden absolutely at his word, charlottesville happened. he is watching the television where neo-nazis are protesting. remember why they were there? protesting the removal of a statue of robert e. lee. the torches and the chaos of that moment, and the incumbent president's reaction sing their refined people on both sides. it brought a question to president biden which is, it can happen here. it has happened here so much. so often. the forces that we have to contend with, the extremism and racism and isolationism, protectionism, those forces are part of the american character and always will be as long as americans are human beings. the task of democracy, the task of the rule of law is to manage our appetites and our ambitions in a way that will enable us to get just enough right. president biden gave -- has given 50 years and still is, trying to get things just right enough with the rest of us. he reengaged at that point. remember what happened when he was

but the truth is, it's a long complicated relationship and you go back to the summer of 2015 when beau biden, joe biden's son died and he was thinking about making a last-minute jump into the race for the democratic primaries. the way that he remembers and has written about what happened then, is that obama was not encouraging the way that obama feels that interaction went, is that he was trying to get biden to focus on grief and things think about how hard the campaign would be. but now, if people that i've talked to, who know biden said to me, if obama were to step in and say to joe biden, i think maybe you should and run in the words one person said that this would be what would likely happen as joe biden would say. well, mr. president, you played that chip in 2015 and look what happened that brought us donald trump yeah there is certainly a lot of indications that he really does feel that way that that that is why he got in in 2020. >> all right. isaac dovere. thanks so much and joining us now to discuss further ease, biden, biographer at christmas it's whipple, author of the fight

. >> and i first came to know president biden through his son, beau.ften tell me stories about his dad. he would talk about the kind of father and the kind of man that joe biden is. the qualities that beau revered in his father are the same qualities that i have seen every day in our president. his honesty, his integrity, his commitment to his faith and his family, his big heart and his love. deep love of our country. and i am firsthand witness that every day our president joe biden, fights for the american people. and we are deeply, deeply grateful for his service to our nation. and so with that, on behalf of our president and doctor biden, i am honored to welcome all of you to the white house to celebrate the achievements of these great athletes. every one of them is a national champion, a national champion in america. tens of millions of people play a sport as a child, and the best of the best grow up to become national champions. >> listening in to vice president kamala harris's first public remarks after the big news dropped yesterday morning that

but as she had with the president's late son, beau biden, this of course, is something that the president has talked about in the past is having been a factor when he was trying to decide who his vice presidential running mate would be back in 2020 the vice president also says in her statement with this selfless and patriotic acts, president biden is doing what he has done throughout his life of service, putting the american people in our country above everything else wolf, all of the attention now is going to really be on kamala harris. this has already been the case for the last several weeks as we have been sort of in limbo, a trying to see where the president was going to land in terms of his own decision. but of course, given that things seemed headed in the wrong direction for the president for a while now, there has been a lot of speculation about vice president harris and whether an endorsement formerly would come from the president, which of course it has. and so now we are going to be paying close attention to everything that she does just in the company being days. how does she

with the landscape zalinski helped me out during the 1st impeachment, uh and uh, and any kauffman beau's. but he was the 1st to send legal aid to ukraine. so those were in the boys of his columbia room with the trunk. we don't know which way he's going to do it. oh, i mean, anyone who says why know what, what he's going to do, i think is going to be wrong. i would have thought just common sense to suggest that he doesn't want this above his administration. you know, you want to end this war as uh, as early as possible. let me just common sense because in no time it will, this will be trumps war. and he doesn't want the tag of trumps was wondering what would bring, bring it to an end as soon as possible. let me, let me differ with you on that. and i don't think we're arguing trump versus bite and so much. but the tactics of the neo cons, i think if i were a neil con, if i was sullivan, if, if i was uh, somebody at the state department of the c, i would want bite. and because i want a little old man who is barely awake. so that he can be the president, but i actually make all the decisions

. >> reporter: after his son beau died of brain cancer, joe biden said he didn't think about running for president again in 2020, until he saw donald trump enter the race. >> we're in a battle for the soul of this nation. >> reporter: that january he told me he had the experience to unite the country. >> the next president of the united states is going to inherit a divided country and a world in disarray and the question is who is best prepared at this moment to be able to deal with both of those crises. >> that seems like a bold statement from any politician in in environment right now to suggest that you might be able to heal the depth of divisiones in this country. >> we have to, lester ff. we don't we are in deep trouble. >> reporter: later that year we spoke at a town hall after his first debate with then president trump. >> i'm used to bullies, i used to stutter when i was a kid. >> reporter: democrats celebrated his win over mr. trump, and as president he had success, overseeing the end of the pandemic and passing a historic bipartisan infrastructure law. >> okay. here we go.

not it's beau's. the sites is aren't new. we've been sanctioning countries, at least since cuba and before, what's new is that the, the use of sanctions has been escalating a very rapidly and last last decade. or so it's almost uh, you know, a reflection of the loss of the us of power. the us used to be able to just look across the country and get them do what they want. now of course that's not working . so now they're throwing sanctions at these countries and sanctions, you know, in a way are saying that the, well we can't, can't get them do what we want. so slow, assign to them is kind of like the last resort to look like you're doing something . uh and of course, the se shoes aren't working. a good best case is probably russia in china. but i would also say that, you know, maybe in a st, choose our work in general because if you look at the, it's not heavy any effect on russian and economy rather sure everything. in fact, the new year actually economy. the sanctions did work in the sense that they drove russia out of the
