As Vice President of the United States under Barack Obama, Joe Biden served 8 years as one of the most important politicians in America.  Prior to holding the Vice Presidency, Biden served several terms as a senator representing the State of Delaware.  It was during his time as a senator that he required surgery for not one, but two brain aneurysms.  The first aneurysm had ruptured, putting him in a life or death situation.  Doctors saved his life and the recovery from his brain surgeries is simply astonishing.  His ability to succeed at the highest levels of government after these aneurysms is truly inspirational.  Below are a few news articles documenting his surgeries:
