Biden addressed students, faculty, staff and others during an appearance hosted by UofL's Mc- Connell Center. With the center's namesake, Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky), seated on the same dais, Biden was candid about the disagreements that he and McConnell have con- cerning how to move the country forward, but noted, too, that Re- publicans and Democrats basically agree on the issues that need to be addressed.
