In a surprise farewell event in Washington, President Obama awarded Vice president Joseph R. Biden the Presidential medal of Freedom.
"For your faith in your fellow Americans, for your love of country and for your lifetime of service that will endure through the generations, I'd like to ask the military aide to join us on stage," Obama said in the ceremony. "For my final time as president, I am pleased to award our nation's highest civilian honor, the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
"If you can't admire Joe Biden as a person you've got a problem," Obama said. He's as good a man as God ever created."
Biden who was all tears almost throughout the event could hardly speak during his acceptance speech as his voice was croaked from crying.
Joe Biden was described as a man with a braod shoulder who accomodates all as wellas a family who believes family comes first before work .
