"stuttering is the only thing that good people think its still okay to laugh about" is the truest thing ever

As a stutterer, I whole heartedly appreciate this Man. We’ve spent years listening, observing, sitting back....more than most, learning with honed senses, the nuances associated with spoken communication. You, Future President Biden, are the champion, the bar, and the Voice that will reverberate throughout my drive. Thank you Sir.

He might not be the person some people want as President, but he is the kind of person we need after 4 years of chaos.

This man is truly a decent human being.

I'm 38 and I've stuttered since preschool. Nothing has worked for me, therapy, hypnotherapy etc. It causes me great pain to this day and I find it better not to talk that much because of being laughed at or mocked. But I take great comfort from other famous stutterers out there like Emily Blunt, Bruce Willis, Rowan Atkinson, & Samuel L Jackson. And others I didn't even know about like Julia and Eric Roberts, Nicole Kidman, Sam Neill and Elvis Presley. We're not alone guys, we're stronger than most people 💖

First U.S President in five years to have a friggin heart.

I stuttered as a teenager, and I was bullied for it in school. It still hurts after all these years when I think about it, and I can totally relate to what Biden said about the humiliation and being ashamed. It is very inspiring to see a former stutter become Vice President, and now President.

What an incredible speech. I don't stutter, I don't really know anyone with a proper stutter, but here I am in tears. People say much about President Biden's gaffes, but this speech makes up for any other speech he might have messed up.

13:24 bet those people felt like idiots right after Biden called them out.

Man watching this has greatly impacted my view of Biden. I didn't realize what an empathetic and caring man he truly is. I started tearing up when he started to tell off parents laughing at stutters. I will always remember his quote about stutters being the only disability that people still laugh at. I'm excited and hopeful to see President Biden lead our country. Thank you so much for uploading this video.

I’ve always been afraid to read out loud in class. This makes me conquer my fear, God bless you people

we the people don't care about you stuttering its your good heart that counts Mr. VP we appreciate you!

Damn I’m almost in tears man, that pain we have is something else , but we gotta be strong and have that will power to improve every day

Best speech about stuttering ever! So inspiring and powerful! Wow!

Thank you Joe for speaking out.. truly from the depths of my heart.. You nailed it.. tears streaming down my face. You were lucky to have such a supportive mother.

I cried so much whenever Joe Biden talks about stuttering. His speeches resonates so much to me. Thank you for never being ashamed and thank you for giving us hope. My wish is to talk on stage one day just like you Mr Biden 🙏🏻😊

I like how he always says he's Jill's husband.

14:42 I don’t agree with virtually any of his politics but he’s 100% right about this.

Years later now ,its president Biden. I applaud him for overcoming his speech and speaking well and in control despite all the pressures and stress being president.

I’ve been suffering from stuttering since I was a little boy. I’m 38 now. I can’t say enough how hard it is to live with this disorder. I’ve been laughed at and mocked many times. People who don’t understand think there is something wrong with me. People fear what they don’t understand. My stutter does not define who I am as a man. This speech really touched my heart. 😢

Sad yet uplifting at the same time. Thank you so much for this!

I love this speech, has truly moved me deeply. As a mother of a special needs kid I will watch and rewatch.

As a mother of a stutterer.. i felt his pain.. i wanted to do anything to take it away..i fought many battles for him.. today he is 24 successful confident and living his best life.. he MAKES ME PROUD.. IT NEVER HELD HIM DOWN.. it got him down at times.. however he OVERCAME IT.... picking on someone because of this disability is gross.. just as gross PICKING ON ANYONE WITH A DISABILITY.....WE have to be better people 👍🏻

Thank you so much American Institute of Stuttering for all the work that you do. As a stutterer, life has its ups and downs. Through educating society on the challenges of stuttering is a huge impact and I can’t thank you enough!

I suffer from Tourretes and a stutter, and I'm also a grown man. It's so embarrassing when I'm tired at work, I get stared at, pointed. But knowing my President stutters like me, that's what gives me the confidence I need when I feel down. Knowing that if Joe can make it, I can.

Thank you Mr. President for your empathy and good heart, I cried watching this. I've been stuttering since I was a child and stuttering has been really hard to deal with and overcome, all the jokes and bullying that made me feel so bad about myself,and made me think that i am different, but as I grow now I see that it won't affect me to live as a normal human being. :) Thank God that He gave us great people as examples for us stutterers to not be intimidated and not be discouraged despite stuttering. :)

This speech is honestly incredible, I hope it helped make a difference for some of those in the audience.

golden words ever said about stuttering​. this speech will be remembered forever. 14.05 explains the pain of stutter soo real as never explained before.

Thank you Mr President. ❤

I have heard this amazing speech many many times and I have a big interview at work today ... I couldn't sleep for the last 4 or 5 nights i am so afraid of not being able to answer the questions i will be asked or present my work ! I decided now on the way to work to listen to this speech again. I do feel alot better now thank you joe really thank you . From an Iraqi living in Ireland

I’ve been stuttering since I had a serious accident when I was 8. I went to speech therapy for about five years and had to wear an eye patch over my left eye for 5 or so years. Even now I stutter now & believe certain employers have rejected me due to being nervous and stuttered. I’m sorry to hear our US president also stutter as well. If he can become president, then others can accept those who stutter for jobs, instead on rejecting them. Thank goodness there are some good people who understand and accept them for their good qualities.

This video describes my stutter/blocks perfectly. Well said speech! 34 and deal with it daily. People will never understand the frustration and pain

Love you 😍 President I stutter sometimes and I love your confidence ...u r such an amazing person

I think, he is the most humble politician that i had seen . India needs such politicians , who are so humble and down to earth . I am also an stammerer , and i am doing my speech exercises daily for 1 hour also i conduct the "practical tests" on myself on daily basis .

My Physics teacher made me say my name in front of the whole class in high school once. I couldn't do it until the end of the class. I am 30 now and still remember it like yesterday. I had a lot of embarassing moments growing up.

You are amazing human being it doesn’t matter people making fun of or even claiming he has dementia I will vote for you.

That was awesome, The pain of stutter make tears in my eyes.. 😥😫

6:39 I couldn't help but cry

Thank you 🙏🏾

wow....impressive speech. I rarely see inspirational speeches but this rates. You can overcome stuttering but not old age...

You break my heart coz you talked about my case exactly . Thank you for your encouragement

13:20 best part of his speech. What a fool to laugh at Biden when got stuck for a second.

It is a best motivational speech I have ever heard.

im a mild stutter and also have a lisps i didnt know joe biden stutters its really inspiring.

Joe's story is inspiring for pepole who stutter, thank you Joe for this great support speech.

Can you ever imagine Trump speaking like this about anything? This man's humanity inspires me

I am revisiting this after the allegations of touching inappropriately. It still brings tears. There is pain on all of us and Joe assures us that there is nothing to be ashamed of. He has over come!

God bless sir praying for u to have long life and happy life god bless america❤❤❤

You are already my PRESIDENT MR BIDEN...may God richly bless you...thank God for you...you make me proud to be a black American women...you make me feel like you truly care about others and that what makes me seen and heard never to hide in the darkness of invisibility..Again thank you Mr President. Carolyn from coconut creek Florida .

Congratulations on your courage.

Now he's President. :)

You are proof that everything in one's life can.be overcome, all stutters will.agree with you You are genuinely a humble kind person. , with true respect and empathy Wish you.every happiness and good health always. Stay blessed 🙌 forever ❤🙏

Today's argument regarding Biden is his poor ability to string his thoughts together. Biden is very articulate in this video, the only stutter is his imitation of it. He is telling a story and does it with ease.

Joe Biden my inspiration

We need to make him president .. to give hope to all the boys and girls who have a stutter.. i have a stutter and it has affected me to this day and I'm 40 years old sometimes I want to order something on the menu but cant say the word so I order something that is easier for me to say..

It hurts so much to Know everything Inside, want to make an empact, have something very good to argue but can't say it out. This is the condition of we stutterers. This video is very helpful. I pray and wish that we all overcome the stuttering one day.

Not being able to talk completely is better than having a stutter 🥺

A fish called Wanda was funny to many people but for me and for many people with stammer it was painful to watch because the pain and suffering was real. Making fun of a guy who is suffering is not a joke

Feeling a lot motivated after watching this video... It seems as if my stuttering's got some light which could take me away from darkness... It's hard and it feels when you are laughed at your stuttering.

"His words are so good they need repeating "..😁❣

Brilliant speech ! :)

Relate much how he practice the words to say before he speak up infront of the person..but until now Im still struggling everytime I get nervous I stutter so bad until there's no words to come out it really breaks my heart why other people are way much better in speaking infront of the people..

17:41 alright I just realised now that I'm not the only one

He is the inspiration for the millennium people....

I wish I had the same type of family as you did sir. On the contrary, when I told my father that I stutter, he responded with "you deserve this". 🙂

I have stuttering problem I am trying to speak clearly but I can't 😔 everyone laughed at me. But some true friends and my parents they listen they understood me very well what problem I suffered from.. they advise me to speak slowly and clearly but I can't 😔 some people they can't hear my voice what I wanted to talk them.. they can't understood my words. I felt very sad on that time.. the main reason behind this problem is my nervousness I felt anxiety and fear to speak someone else people asking me do you have any physically handicapped certificate? R u a handicap?. When I hear this I......😔😓 please help me to overcome this problem 😔 plz plz

Great way to start a new year !! Happy new year everyone !

JOE Force THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF the U. S. A. 💪💪💪💪💪💪

I actually relate to our next president a lot, I also went to Catholic school and suffered through and triumphed over a handicap, though one I wouldn't know about until a few years ago- Asperger's. Joe knew about his condition, it was obvious, but I also 'practiced' in similar ways to him in front of the mirror. It was more when I was older, like in high school and beyond, but I sort of studied and took in interactions I saw on TV and in the movies and apparently became better and better at fitting in and being 'normal' the older I got up til now. But it was much worse when I was a young kid. My eyes would water if I had to stand up for myself or speak to others (the last time it happened was when I stared down a bully in early freshman year of high school). I felt depressed if not suicidal while at school as a 4th and 5th grader- and no young child should ever be made to feel that way. I grew to think people saw me as 'different' in a bad way and developed narcissistic tendencies due to that. Teachers realized I'd zone out and called on me on purpose, leading me to shut down and just stare at them, hole up until they passed and refused to speak. By college I was 'normal' enough, but suffering a lot of remedial depression issues from my struggles and suffered far worse in college even if I had mastered 'normalcy'. By the end, the mental illnesses that come with autism intensified to the point to where I couldn't even carry out a proper job search and had to go work for the family business and finally get therapy, which I had to fight my parents a lot through to get the amount of help I really needed to basically build back an entire lifetime... and unlike Joe my story is far from over. I'm only a little bit better from after college, almost three years ago. Catholic school's rigidity managed to help people like Biden and I stay more focused and go through the motions to cope, but not heal. The alternative, I suppose, would have been to grow up "special needs" and probably have worse narcissism due to everyone knowing... or perhaps not. I'll never know. But then consider that I am one of the highest-functioning autistics possible, and so imagine what it must be like for those who are WORSE than me... I was spared all the common and nearly-universal symptoms such as meltdowns, so I was very lucky. Joe Biden's certainly an inspiration for me. I also have political, if not presidential, ambitions. While I would not be the first president to have Asperger's (historians believe Thomas Jefferson, John Quincy Adams, Abraham Lincoln, and William Howard Taft had it, while I would also include John Adams, Richard Nixon, and Donald Trump), I'd be the first one to be open about it. By that time, it would likely be less of a stigma. Because Joe's right- there are still a lot of things out there that are made fun of that shouldn't be. Autism, in the end, is just a more colorful and vibrant way to take in the world once it's mastered. I'm a lot closer to mastering it, and I never even knew I had it until two years ago. I'm 25 now.

I don't know Joe Biden that good, apart from that he's a stutterer just like me. As someone who stutters he beat that egocentric screaming loudmouth and ended up being President. Huge rolmodel for everyone out there who stutters. Respect.

Thats our next president. Wow. I am not an American but cant wait to see him take the oath and occupy the strongest office in the world. And prove all those stutterers and non-stutterers wrong who think stutterers cant be something they want to be.

I stutter and people dont understand that its a struggle to try to speak to people trying to get the words out and can't

Stuttering people actually try to say good things that why it's worth repeating

I used to be a heavy stutterer as a kid. At some point somewhere after I finished school I started stutter less and less, idk why. But stuttering in childhood definitely fucked up my ability to communicate with people and engage in conversations.

I been stuttering sicie grade school I been call kind of name like dummy or freak I 66 old and I find crying how can people be so mean to make fun of someone who stutter and still hurts alot

I didn't stutter, but grew up with a major speech impediment and kids can be mean, so I know the pain.

this is such a great speech. i am in tears. i am so proud of him for always standing up and advocating for himself and others. especially children who need to see people like them in media, in society who are unapologetic and successful not in spite of whatever it is that makes them different to someone else. he touches on so much here and his character and soul is fully on display. he's such a lovely person and the exact type of person who should be representing human struggles like disability. you can tell he's all in here. he's feeling what he's saying. he holds little joey so close. i like that he criticised the people who laughed aswell. it was calm but firm. thank you, always, president biden. 💙

Thank you sir! Really appreciate!

My adult child cant say words at all. (Well, shes learned to say "uh uh!" ) but she is very social friendly hapoy and popular. Thank God! She communicates nonlinguistically quite well! ( and they say that about 80% of true valid communication IS "nonverbal" ) and she laughs Alot !

Hard to believe he stuttered b4, as he is quite fluent. A tiny few stutters overcome their affection and ruins their life. As a stuterer, I know how hard it is.

Is there a transcript of this somewhere? It's fantastic

I use to stutter at a young age it was a little hard but Now I'm okay and I look back in the memories and laugh

Can not stop crying

Please do you offer Therapy for kids in Houston TX ? My son needs help.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️this was amazing

13:22

im a stutterer and i dread the day i meet someone else who stutter

We are people first. "People who stutter"

Great speech. Did not see that coming. Also, what is the cure for stuttering? (not looking for a 'go to a speech therapist' answer)

Omg this was so good!!!!!!

This is great :)

Do AIS also support/offer treatment to other speech impediments such as ‘cluttering’?

Life is so hard.

thank you Mr Biden😀

I am the ex Stutterer. Alhamdu Lillah I have fixed my stammering and I am writing a book as well where I have mentioned all the possible technics and my personal observations; through which I have overcome/ fixed my own stutter. I am coming to the USA Insha Allaah during March 2024. I would like give an speech on this precious platform. If you give me an opportunity

Biden, Harris 2020!

That's a President

Very moving. Deserves to be president

Change VP to President

13:20 Owned.
