President Obama Delivers a Eulogy Honoring the Life of Beau Biden
“He did in 46 years what most of us couldn’t do in 146.
He left nothing in the tank. He was a man who led a life where the means were as important as the ends. The example he set made you want to be a better dad, or a better son, or a better brother or sister, better at your job, the better soldier.
He made you want to be a better person. Isn’t that finally the measure of a man -– the way he lives, how he treats others, no matter what life may throw at him?”
– President Obama
Today, the Biden family, President Obama, and Americans across the country paid their final respects to a good man who loved deeply, and was loved in return.
A veteran of the Iraq war, the Attorney General of Delaware — and most importantly — a dedicated father, husband, and son, Beau Biden was a compassionate, empathetic, public servant who cared about what matters most in life, the people and country he loved.
President Obama delivered a eulogy in honor of Beau Biden at St. Anthony of Padua Church in Wilmington, Delaware:

In this week’s address, the President recognized Immigrant Heritage Month, an occasion that allows us to celebrate our origins as a nation of immigrants. The basic idea of welcoming people to our shores is central to our ancestry and our way of life. That’s why the President asked everyone to visit whitehouse.gov/NewAmericans and share stories of making it to America.
And as we celebrate our heritage and our diversity, the President promised to continue to fight to fix our current broken immigration system and make it more just and more fair, strengthening America in the process.

The Terms of Trade: Questions and Answers on the President’s Trade Deal
As Congress moves forward in its work on America’s trade policy, you may be hearing a lot of back and forth about the process and substance of the new, high-standards trade agreement the Administration is negotiating, the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP).
The President is committed to ensuring that when we do trade, we do right by American small businesses, American workers, and people across the globe. Scrutiny is important – after all, as President Obama has said, past trade deals haven’t always lived up to the hype. And many people who care deeply about this issue are raising important questions on what the trade deal is about and how it will impact our country.
But, if you’re listening to the discussion, it can be hard to understand what the questions mean and what the answers are. So here’s a quick rundown on the buzz you might be hearing about TPP, and some answers to questions you might be asking:
Is this trade agreement being kept secret from the American people?
The TPP negotiations are still ongoing, so there is no final agreement to review. But public input is vital to the process, and that is why the Administration has taken new steps to share our priorities and get feedback throughout the negotiation process. We’ve:
- Published detailed summaries of U.S. objectives in negotiating all aspects of the agreement
- Solicited public comments on negotiation aims, priorities and concerns, including through the Federal Register
- Held public hearings inviting input on the negotiations
Congress’ voice is critical as well. In addition to more than 1,700 briefings with Congress, the trade promotion legislation they are currently considering will lay out specific and public negotiating objectives for the Administration.
Most importantly, the American people will be able to review every single word in the TPP and any trade agreement before the President signs it. As the President said: Every comma, every period, every semicolon. In fact, if Congress passes trade promotion authority — for the first time ever — it will be required by law that the agreement be made public for a minimum of 60 days before the President signs the agreement and for additional months before Congress votes on it – and we believe that’s a good thing.
