It's why I supported his candidacy and vote enthusiastically for his rise to POTUS. I believed not only would he win but that he could lead us out of the darkness that Trump and his minions tried so hard to impose on the Nation.

It's been an uphill battle but President Biden has pushed and pushed and pushed and never stopped believing in our better angels. His is a voice for the future, not the varnished over past, the rewritten histories the GOP is so eager to impose on the public mind. It's a voice of optimism and hope but also a voice willing to call out the anti-democratic forces, the Trumpster's Magat strain that threatens our very foundations.

It was direct. It was passionate and true. It was pure Joe Biden.

Bravo, Mr. President. Bravo!
