The priest or lay minister can say either of the two things while applying the ashes"
 
"Remember, man thou are dust and unto dust thou shalt return."
 
"Turn away from sin and be faithful to the Gospel."
 
These apply to anyone who is a sinner -- including Biden.  So, do you see that you, also, might receive the ashes in a Catholic Church?
