When Resigning Is A Class Act

Today Joe Biden cemented his legacy as a great human being, as well as the consummate politician. He turned down his nomination for another term as President. 

He wanted to run. He wanted to win. Most of all he wanted to see the democrats continue with the momentum he has created in the last three and a half years. When it became clear to him, he was not the strongest candidate to lead the party, he withdrew, despite having won all the primaries. 

That's not bravado. That's bravery. That's not ego. That's compassion.
