Joe Biden Stutter?

Joe Biden Stutter? I've watched old clips of Biden from the 80s & 90s and he doesn't stutter, he enunciates well and clearly. I'm unsure why people are claiming he stutters?...

Stutterers in Movie /TV

Stutterers in Movie /TV Watch 'Billy' in 'One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest`, what a tough watch. Love Jack Nicholson's reaction. I don't think the actor in `A Fish Called Wanda' got it totally right...

Most of the "stutters" in books aren't very realistic (and other media too). And you make a good point about commedic effect. What would you do with a book about someone that had something else...lik...

Stuttering may seem like a restrictive, frustrating, and tear jerking disability. The most powerful person in the world, Joe Biden, is one of the 1%, and he overcome stuttering. The richest person in the world, Elon Musk, stutters during presentations to this day.

The movie is in pre-production, right? If anything, his comments are a good thing and might enact change. I agree with him (and you). I don't have an issue with the actress chosen. Literally she's su...

I'm a Packers fan. I was a fan of Aaron Rodgers for a long time. That was wavering lately. Now with this, I don't know how I support him - taking digs at the public speaking of a public figure who is well know as a person who stutters. Not to mention that it reinforces bullying of PWS.
