of his/her way to help and be nice to all kinds of people.. "Mensch" is a very special word to describe the very best of humanity. When you refer to someone as a "mensch" it is one of the highest compliments that you can give to a person. Another aspect of the word "mensch" is that the person is.. not interested in personal gain or reward of any kind, just trying to help & respect people at that moment for whatever reason is present at that moment.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
