My mother believed and my father believed that if I wanted to be President of the United States, I could be, I could be vice president.

Former Vice President Joe Biden has been elected president of the United States.

It is my greatest honor and privilege to have been your president.

We will be back in some form.

We are still deeply divided.

Public health experts warned this was coming unless more was done, and here we are now. Are you proud of what happened here today?

Absolutely.

Never before in American history, has there been an uprising like this?

Of the 75 million Americans who voted for Donald Trump, I don't know how many today are feeling,

dear God, what was I thinking? But I would wager a lot more our thinking, let's carry on this

fight. Character matters. It matters. Tell them the truth matters. The 21st century is going to be

the American century, because we lead not only by the example of our power but by the power

of our example. That is the history of the journey of America.

America has tried these failed economic policies before, but we are not going back.

What a difference a week makes. Kamala Harris steps up, Joe Biden steps aside. And the optimism,

Marion, is off the Richter scale. You've felt it, you've seen it, you've watched the videos, what's your

sense of it? Is it a little over the top? Are people jumping the gun? Or is it very much warranted

that it is game on in this presidential race? Charlotte, I think almost all of the above, the race

is now wide open. The Democrats were in a sort of

a funeral march. They were just so downbeaten and disillusioned and they'd given up. They knew

because everyone knew, except for Joe Biden until he finally knew that there was no chance

that Joe Biden was going to beat Donald Trump in November.
