Bluffton, Indiana, Jan 20 — Today we celebrate a rebirth of America. This country has lost more than 400,00 people to the COVID-19 pandemic, thousands of small businesses forever, and has millions of people struggling to make ends meet. On this day we welcome new leaders, leaders that enter the White House seeking a recovery that looks beyond their own personal gain.
The outgoing President failed our nation; we lost too many lives to COVID, we forfeited our position on the world stage, and we alienated our allies. The outgoing President continues to falsely claim fraud, and instigated among his followers an insurgent attack on our nation, turning what should have been a peaceful ceremony confirming the results of a fair and free election into a moment that will live in history. Now, our history books will remember him as the only President to be impeached twice.
Yesterday was the last that our nation had never had a female Vice-President. For Vice-President Harris to be a woman of color makes the event even more significant, and takes us a step closer to being a country that honors and respects its diverse population.
President Biden and Vice-President Harris enter the White House today with a diverse leadership team and a vision that will return the United States to leadership on the world stage. We will again be governed by empathy, science, equality, and we will again speak of the future, acknowledging the dangers of climate change, rediscovering accountability, and striving for improvement in our criminal justice and health care systems. This is the language that Wells County Democrats are ready to speak.
