He falls asleep at conferences, but here's what Biden says about sex

President Joe Biden has declared that the key to a long and lasting marriage is "good sex," according to a new book about the nation's first ladies that spotlights his 47-year romance with Jill Biden

"The American Woman, The Transformation of the Modern First Lady, from Hillary Clinton to Jill Biden," was authored by New York Times White House Correspondent Katie Rogers and came out this week.

The section on sex comprises only a few paragraphs in the 276-page book, but it has already made headlines.

Rogers writes that Biden chose not to run for president in 2004, saying he had little interest in running because he preferred to stay home with his wife and have sex while the kids were asleep.

"I'd rather be at home making love to my wife while my kids are asleep," he said.

The book describes the anguish Joe Biden experienced when his first wife, Neilia, died in a car accident in 1972 along with their daughter Naomi.

He and Jill married in 1977, but it took five proposals from Biden to get Jill to agree. / CNA
