For goodness’ sake, I’m sorry, I have to jump in because I’ve heard a little bit about that,” Clinton told PEOPLE in a joint interview with her daughter last week, after they were asked if some female voters would be less than enthusiastic about Biden as the Democratic nominee, given his behavior.“I mean, I don’t think that the Twitterverse is the American electorate, but there are lots of vocal voices that say all kinds of things,” said Clinton, 71. She said that Biden, 76, who is a leading contender to challenge President Donald Trump in next year’s election, “is a thoroughly decent human being who has served our country honorably and well for decades.” “You could take any person who sticks their little head above the parapet and says, ‘I’m going to run for president,’ and find something that … a little annoying habit or other kind of behavior that people are going to pick apart and disagree with,” she continued.

Of course former Vice President Joe Biden has a reputation for being handsy and a hugger with women and girls; being quite shameless about intruding on women and girls’ personal spaces. The media treats that aggressive sexual behavior as ‘Biden being Biden‘ because he is a gregarious pro-abortion liberal who deserves sympathy because he lost his first wife and a son to tragic early deaths.

Biden’s behavior at the ceremonial swearing-in ceremony for U.S. Senators on January 6, 2015 drew widespread attention, mainly for photos of the 13-year-old daughter of Delaware Senator Chris Coons (D) leaning away from Biden’s attempt to plant a kiss.

However, a C-SPAN video of the swearing-in ceremony shows the then 72-year-old Biden doing more than trying to steal a kiss from a young girl in front of her parents. At least two other incidents show Biden fondling the chests of young, pubescent girls. Another incident shows Biden using a Bible to entice a reluctant girl to stand next to her so he could touch and hug her.

The C-SPAN camera operator at one time zoomed in after Biden fondled a girl’s hair with both hands, bent over to kiss her on the top of her head then returned his hands to her shoulders and then slid them down her shoulders with Biden’s right hand fingers touching her chest.

NOTE: Each embedded video is set to start at a different point even if from the same video, with the exception of the ending C-SPAN video.

Another incident shows Biden’s right hand sliding down a girl’s shoulder and then his fingers creep over toward her breast. The girl elbowed Biden and stepped away from him, but Biden grabbed her and put his right hand back over her breast.

The first girl is a niece of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky (R). The girl with the sharp elbow is apparently a relative of Senator Steve Daines of Montana (R).

In another incident from that day, Biden is meeting Colorado Senator Cory Gardner and his wife and 11-year-old daughter. The daughter puts herself on the other side of Biden from her father. Biden reaches out to shake her hand and tries to pull her toward him such that the resisting girl stumbles in her heels. Biden then asks her to hold the Bible for the swearing-in of her father to get her next to him so he could fondle her. Biden drags her over by the arm and positions her close to him with both hands on her. Biden hugs her with his right arm after the ceremonial swearing-in, pulling her hip to his crotch. Biden then holds the girl near him for the family photo session and keeps his left arm around her waist during the photos. Biden finishes by leaning over and whispering in her ear.

Note: Watch Biden’s hand beginning at the 1:32 mark. He actually rotates his hand up to touch the side of the 11-year-old girl’s breast.

CNN’s Jeannie Moos reported on and excused Biden’s fondness for young girls, saying, “There’s nothing pervy here. The V.P. knows he’s on camera at these swearing-in ceremonies and the parents are right there as he leans in for a kiss.”

A video clip shows then Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions (R) gently swatting away Biden’s hand as he reached down to touch a girl child whose hair had got caught in the family bible. Sessions then quickly moves the girl away from Biden.
