"Joe Biden has vowed to be a president for all Americans, even those wjo do not support him. In previous elections, such a promise might have sounded trite or treachy. Today, the idea that the president should have the entire nation's interest at heart feels almost revolutionary.
Mr. Biden has vowed to "restore the soul of America." It is a painful reminder that the country is weaker, angrier, less hopeful and more divided than it was four years ago. With this promise, Mr. Biden is assuring the public that he recognizes the magnitude of what the next president is being called upon to do. Thankfully, he is well suited to the challenge _ perhaps particularly so.
In the midst of relenting chaos, Mr. Biden is offering an anxious, exhausted on something beyond policy or ideology. His campaign is rooted in steadiness, experience, compassion and decency."
