Biden Chokes Up on Colbert

Vice President Joe Biden gave a moving interview to comedian Stephen Colbert on The Late Show on Thursday, expressing his uncertainty about whether he’s emotionally prepared to run for president after the death of his son this past year. “I’d be lying if I said that I knew I was there,” he told Colbert. “I’m being completely honest.” Biden, still reeling from the death of his eldest son, Beau, from brain cancer, told Colbert any man or woman running for president should be able “to give 110 percent of who they are,” but that he wasn’t sure he could make the commitment just yet.
