Here’s a good clear example of Biden notetaking/handwriting...
I’d post the pic but it’s AP.
Why no wedding ring....
It looks like Biden has “AA” in a few entries.
could be “Axe Axelrod,” ??? That is David Axelrod’s nickname:
“The rumpled, over-50 Axe, as nearly everyone calls him...”

GregNH: It doesn’t look like Biden is wearing a wedding ring in either picture (AP or the one in the thread). Maybe he doesn’t wear one.
