I have to say that the words “President-elect Joseph Robinette Biden Jr.” have a stirring ring to my eyes and ears.<\/p>\n

The networks and major media organizations have made a call many of us wanted to hear, that we have new president of the United States.<\/p>\n

I am a happy fellow at this moment.<\/p>\n

We’ll get to unpack all the reasons for our happiness in the weeks ahead. The end of Donald Trump’s tenure as president is just around the corner. He likely won’t concede the race, at least not in the immediate future, which to be honest doesn’t bother me near as much as I thought it might.<\/p>\n

His refusal to concede and to offer a full cooperation with the new president and his team will inflict some damage to the nation’s image abroad, but it will cast most of the shame on Trump.<\/p>\n

What’s more …<\/p>\n

Let’s not forget a key historical moment that occurred just a little while ago: the election of Kamala Harris as the first woman vice president. Indeed, she embodies a historical trifecta as the first woman, the first black woman and the first Indian-American woman.<\/p>\n

And so there you have it.<\/p>\n

President-elect Biden pledged to heal the country. He has been through emotional hell in his own life, so he knows all about what it takes to heal a shattered heart. He has buried two of his children and his wife. He has climbed out of the depths of despair.<\/p>\n

Joe Biden now stands at the political pinnacle.<\/p>\n

This is a good day for the nation we love.<\/p>\n\n
