Joe Biden: "We are America, second to none, and we own the finish line"
"You got a glimpse of what an incredible fine young man Beau was," he said. "...As Ernest Hemingway once wrote, the world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong at the broken places."
Biden spoke about Hillary Clinton as a smart and passionate leader, noting he's known her for more than 30 years and has worked with her in the Senate and over weekly breakfasts when she was Secretary of State.
"Everybody knows she's smart, everybody knows she's tough--but I know what she's passionate about," he said. "I know Hillary. Hillary understands, Hillary gets it."
"There's only one, only one person in this election who will help you. There's only one person in this race who will be there for you," he continued. "...It's her life story: she's always there, she's always been there."
The vice president then turned his attention to GOP nominee Donald Trump, saying the idea that he cares about the middle class is--in signature Biden fashion--"a bunch of malarkey."
"His cynicism is unbounded," he said of Trump. "His lack of empathy and compassion can be summed up in the phrase I suspect he's most proud of having made famous, 'You're fired!'"
Biden continued, saying Trump "doesn't have a clue about the middle class, not a clue"--prompting chants from the crowd of "Not a clue! Not a clue!"
More than his inability to help the middle class, Biden said, Trump would be dangerous for U.S. national security.
"No major party nominee in the history of this nation has ever known less or been less prepared to deal with our national security," he said. "We cannot elect a man who exploits our fears of ISIS and other terrorists, who has no plan whatsoever to make us safer."
