Joseph Robinette "Joe" Biden, Jr. (/ˈdʒoʊsᵻf rɒbᵻˈnɛt ˈbaɪdən/; born November 20, 1942) is an American politician who is the 47th and current Vice President of the United States, jointly elected twice with President Barack Obama, and in office since 2009. A member of the Democratic Party, Biden represented Delaware as a United States Senator from 1973 until becoming Vice President in 2009.
Biden was born in Scranton, Pennsylvania, in 1942, and lived there for ten years before moving to Delaware. He became an attorney in 1969, and was elected to the New Castle County council in 1970. Biden was first elected to the Senate in 1972, and became the sixth-youngest senator in U.S. history. He was re-elected to the Senate six times, and was the fourth most senior senator at the time of his resignation to assume the Vice Presidency in 2009. Biden was a long-time member and former chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee. He opposed the Gulf War in 1991, but advocated U.S. and NATO intervention in the Bosnian War in 1994 and 1995. Biden voted in favor of the resolution authorizing the Iraq War in 2002, but opposed the surge of U.S. troops in 2007. He has also served as chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, dealing with issues related to drug policy, crime prevention, and civil liberties, and led the legislative efforts for creation of the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act, and the Violence Against Women Act. He chaired the Judiciary Committee during the contentious U.S. Supreme Court nominations of Robert Bork and Clarence Thomas.

President Barack Obama surprised Vice President Joe Biden with the Presidential Medal of Freedom with distinction at a farewell tribute to the outgoing vice president on Thursday.
[Verse 1:]
If I had a choice I rather my higher power decide to take me first,
I think the other way around would only make me worse,
Rarely was I ever trusted without the suspicions,
And very few could ever love me without the conditions.
Those are the ones I care to treasure, ones I wouldn't dare sever,
A bunch of my peers efforts been fair weather,
The deaf have great vision and the blind man could hear better,
Figured since I lost all my senses that I would fear better.
I'm not the social type, nothing about him socialite,
Designed the prototype, how to unloved overnight.
Flip side, I die for my niggas, put it the simplest,
You give me your all and I'm a send it back with interest.
This is for my niggas that helped me before I suggested,
I'm just trying to send the flowers before you could jest it.
The man in fact that I've become you had a hand in that,
And I'll give ya'll the world but I'm sure that ya'll would hand it back.
[Chorus:]
We will never be apart,
It's like two bodies livin' with one heart
Together like a lock and key,
Without you, there is no me.
Things will never be the same,
If you weren't here with me, I couldn't see,
Livin' in a nothin' place,
Wherever you go, you know I'm goin' with you (with you, with you...)
[Verse 2]
I mean... She was on the phone tryin' to sound relaxed,
But the words comin' out her mouth ain't have the sound to match.
Voice tremblin' as if you were barely holding on,
Meanwhile trying to be strong to protect your second born.
Shit was scary to me, if something happened to you,
What'll happen to us, like I'm living vicariously.
I seen your life flash, right past, my reaction buried deep inside,
If you go, they'll have to bury me alive.
How would I survive, fuck 'em mum you meant more
Life coach and mentor, just a grim thought makes skin crawl,
Single mother, held it down when my pop was locked away,
Cried every time I gave my mom a gift on Father's Day.
But I'll be here for you, like you were there for yours,
And she was layin', decayin' all the days spent prayin',
Gospel music playin', a few days from death,
But always felt us on our way in, we were like her safe haven.
You always thought you were her least favorite child,
Only sibling that showed up, you at least make her smile.
At least make her proud, not an obstacle that's too hard,
True stars strive to be half the person you are.
Ain't never neglect, so I'll forever respect,
I more than owe my life to you, I'm forever in debt (CHECK!),
I mean my mother got cancer in her neck,
But I'll be behind you every step, what the fuck did you expect.
[Chorus:]
We will never be apart,
It's like two bodies livin' with one heart
Together like a lock and key,
Without you, there is no me.
Things will never be the same,
If you weren't here with me, I couldn't see,
Livin' in a nothin' place,
Wherever you go, you know I'm goin' with you (with you, with you...)
[Verse 3:]
I'm like... Damn, how you always know better than me,
Amazes me when you show me what I never could see,
So the break up never really was a plan to me,
In retrospect I think I was complacent with insanity.
We were so exhausted, bored with, tortured,
But since I couldn't picture my life without you I fought it.
Like we could get through anything too much pride in us,
Better off without each other, Id've been depriving us.
At times you see people in ways you shouldn't portray 'em,
Cause they ain't living up to a title you shouldn't of gave 'em.
Headshot pointblank range committed murder,
Honestly thought I couldn't move on, then went further.
Used to want to see you suffer for the pain you caused,
Now when I see you gain, I applaud.
What I'm tryin' to say is, don't complain about your path and where it took you,
'Cause you might end up with somebody to sing this hook too.
[Chorus:]
We will never be apart,
It's like two bodies livin' with one heart
Together like a lock and key,
Without you, there is no me.
Things will never be the same,
If you weren't here with me, I couldn't see,
Livin' in a nothin' place,
