Special Midweek episode. First dozen minutes are a free preview. This is a special historical dive episode. We searched for a similar figure to former president Joe Biden, but could not find one in America. We did find one. He was a generation ago and across the pond: former French president Francois Mitterand. Moderate Catholic boys from middle class families who had chameleon like qualities, very long journeys to the top prize, personal failings and family scandals and finally, ends as frail men shuffling off the biggest stage. Biden’s prostate cancer diagnosis is only the cherry on top considering Mitterand hid his prostate cancer from his nation.
