god bless america. god bless america. god bless america and god bless donald trump. do me a favor now, i want to pray for a minute or two. if you have a hat, i see they are the most beautiful hats, take your hat off. i want you to not bow your head today, i want you to look up to the lord as we pray. lord, we thank you for the gift of america. for the gift of donald j. trump. lord, we thank you for the gift of every life here with us around the world, in the bellies , all the life you give us in the image and likeness of god, we thank you, lord. today, lord, we gather in this hallowed place, we make it wholly right now in your name because we ask you, lord, bless us in our work. it totion, lord, you gave us as a gift and you said you will have this nation founded on judeo-christian principles and framed by a declaration and the constitution. or will not be led by cnn cable news or fake news. lord, you said to us if you take this american nation, lord, you said to us, and you serve me in righteousness, i will give you prosperity and joy and i will give you for the wor

i think the choice in this election is whether america remains america.cheers] it is whether we are going to chart a course, and michigan will play an outsized role in this decision, so here me out. it is whether we are going to chart a course based on our american heritage of faith, family, and patriotism, and freedom. whether we are going to let joe biden and the democratic party surrender our country to the radical left, shutdown our economy, topple our heritage of freedom and values into an avalanche of socialism and decline. so let me say to all of you from my heart. for everything that has always made america unique and exceptional and great, for the freedom that generations of americans have fought to defend, we've got to decide right here and right now that joe biden will never be president of the united states. we are to reelect president donald trump for four more years. [cheers and applause] [crowd chanting "four more years"] >> when i got the phone call four years ago to join this ticket, i said yes in a heartbeat. because i heard and saw in t

let's keep america great. god bless america.plause] >> fight for president of venezuela. >> you should see the view from up here. you guys are awesome, awesome. [applause] i am from arizona, i do not need a plane to fly back with the enthusiasm and energy that is coming off of you. keep it up, keep it up. [applause] we want one simple thing. what's that? four more years. four more years, four more years, four more years. [crowd chant] >> let me get serious. week in the state of arizona, state senator for i whatever that is worth. am a last week our senate president in arizona sent our secretary of state, a democrat freeaid let's have independent inspection of the , polls. she said no. no. in fact, we found out that in 2017 she said you are supporting donald j. trump. [booing] my message to you this afternoon is simple. arizona 11 electoral votes and madam chair where we are back there, arizona is ready to cast 11 electoral votes for the next president of the united states. trump!j. it is time that each one of us, no matter where

america that faces facts. america that overcomes challenges. america where we see justice and equality for all people. america that holds fast to conviction that out of pain comes possibility. out of frustration comes progress. and out of division, unity. you all know in our finest hour, that is what we have always been. and that is who we shall be again. for i believe that this a grim season of division, dehumanization will give way to a year of immunity. why do i think so? because america is a nation not of adversaries but of neighbors. not of limitations, but of possibilities. not of dreams deferred, but of dreams realized. i've said many times, but this is a great country. we are a good people. this is the united states of america. and there has never been anything we have been unable to do when we have done it together. think of what we come through, as a nation. how many things we have come through. centuries of human enslavement. cataclysmic civil war. exclusion of women from the ballot box. world wars. jim crow. the long twilight strugg

that is the person america elected, and that is also america at its best. mr. president-elect, thank you for giving this kid from the heartland an extraordinary opportunity to serve the country i love. mr. kerry: mr. president-elect, vice president-elect harris, thank you, mr. president-elect, for your generous words. most of all, thank you for the trust and responsibility of this appointment. i will do all in my power to live up to your expectations and to this moment for our country and the world. i begin by thanking my family for empowering me and encouraging me to take this task on. secretary-designate blinken, we have worked together many years on the foreign relations committee and at foggy bottom. it will be a huge pleasure to partner with you again. you will be a terrific secretary. mr. president-elect, you have put forward a bold, transformative climate plan. but you have also underscored no country alone can solve this challenge. even the united states, for all of our industrial strength, is responsible for only 13% of global emissions. to end this cr

god bless america. that's who we are. that's what america represents to the world. however, imperfectly. now we have to proceed with follow measures of humility and confidence. humility because as the president-elect said, we can't solve all the world's problems alone. we need to be working with other countries. we need their cooperation. we need their partnership. but also confidence. because america at its best still has a greater ability than any other country on earth to bring others together to meet the challenges of our time. and that's where the men and women of the state department, foreign service officers, civil servants, that's where they come in. i have witnessed their passion, their energy, their courage up close. i have seen what they do to keep us safe, to make us more prosperous. i've seen them add luster to a word that deserves our respect, diplomacy. if confirmed, it will be the honor of my life to help guide them. and so thank you all, and may god bless america. >> good afternoon. mr. president-elect, madam vice president-elect, thank you for plag

it feels like we're now back on the right track america is back you have regained america all people time is static for the nation . but the other america has been out on the streets to on saturday stop the steel rallies we have been closely contested states. like here in michigan these people believe the president's on verified theories. biden's claims to be the we know we suspicion. ottilie believe they had their way in the sleigh down the track last night and them if they get it it was ill never and i encourage president trying to continue his last series. you know fight for you know this the stealing of this stuff is new in this election right now the current president looks like he's digging into his bunker as joe biden won the election and donald trump went golfing supporters cheat him on the way back to the white house for much of red america donald trump is still very much their president. i'm joined now by boris foreman he's a political scientist at college live in barra's the president elect joe biden called for unity in his acceptance speech how will he go about achieving

america is at a critical crossroads. unless we begin to change the self-destructive course that both parties are on, this mess will just repeat itself all over again in 2024. ronald reagan said, freedom was never more than one generation from extinction. we must heed those words. we cannot take the blessings of liberty for granted. we must work to secure them for our children and our grandchildren. i'm more than willing to stand up and fight for the things that really matter. but not for status quo politics. and not to perpetuate polarization and paralysis. we have to show those who have lost faith in our party and those who feel forgotten by washington that we can actually get things done and that we can make their lives better. we not only need to return to our principles, but we must reinvigorate them with commonsense solutions that work for the 22 -- for the 21st century challenges we face. we don't need another autopsy to know that we can't bring more americans into our ranks by only speaking to the folks who alread

that is the person america lacked it, and that is also america at its best. so mr. president elect, thank you for giving this kid from the heartland. an extraordinary opportunity to serve the country. and i, we've been listening in now to a number of speeches, starting with the u.s. president elect himself joe biden as well, followed by a number of his nominees, speaking about their roles, their aspirations, and then beginnings. now let's listen in to john kerry because he's been nominated to be the environmental effort of the biden administration. mr. president, elect vice president, elect harris. thank you, mr. president. elect for your generous words. and most of all, thank you for the trust in the responsibility of this appointment. i will do all in my power to live up to your expectations. and to this moment for our country and for the world. and i begin by thanking my family for empowering megan and courage in a to take this task on secretary designate blinken. we were together for many years on the foreign relations committee and at foggy bottom. and it will

that is the person america elected, and that is also america at its best. mr. president-elect, thank you for giving this kid from the heartland and extra ordinary opportunity to serve the country i love. >> mr. president-elect, vice president-elect harris, thank you, mr. president-elect, for your generous words. most of all, thank you for the trust and the responsibility of this appointment. i will do all in my power to live up to your expectations, and to this moment for our country and for the world. i begin by thanking my family for empowering me, and encouraging me to take this task on. secretary doug not designate bld i have worked river for many years, and it'll be a huge honor to partner with you again. you'll be a terrific secretary. mr. president-elect, you have put forward a bold transformative climate plan, but you have also underscored that no country alone can solve this challenge. even the united states, for all of our industrial strength, is responsible for only 13% of global conditions. to end this crisis, the whole world must come together. you

i think it's, i call it america 1st america pro america movement. i grew too, but we embraced a different kind of, of movement when we took on china, it wasn't just because the corporate interests alex on wall street wanted it. they didn't. in fact, they want biden to win because they think biden will go back to trading with china . but we had a president that put people that were different from the a republican traditional party in there. when joe biden says, let's unite, we're going to unite, you know that in the last 2 weeks of the campaign, alex joe biden ran an ad that called donald trump and his supporters. nazis, do you know how hard it is alex to? i've been called dumb. i've been called, you know, not smart. i've been called incorrect when you call us nazis and then you try to unite us. i'm not against joe biden as a man. i am against the leadership that refuses to make room for all of us. he's dividing us, he's not uniting us, and the american people feel it a lot less the professor ground, as you probably know, a football and past the run

the only thing that can tear america part is america itself, and that's exactly what trump's been tryingrom the very beginning, dividing america based on race, religion, gender, national origin. it's wrong. it's not who we are. this is not who we are. everybody knows who donald trump is. let's keep showing him who we are. [horns honking] folks. and i mean this. it's not just campaign rhetoric. we choose hope over fear. we choose unity over division. we choose science over fiction. [horns honking] and, yes, we choose truth over lies, the multiple lies he repeats. it's time to stand up. it's time to take back our democracy. [horns honking] we can do this. [horns honking] we're better than this. [horns honking] we're better than what we've been. this is the united states of america. [horns honking] god bless you all and may god protect our troops.

i have long talked about the battle for the soul of america. we must restore the soul of america.r angels between our better angels between our better angels between our better angels and our darkest feelings. it is time for the better angels to prevail. tonight, the whole world is watching america and i believe that at our best, america is a beacon for good. we will not only lead by example the power but by the power of our example. i want to talk about the style of the speech. max, you have watched a lot ofjoe biden speeches over the years. this was full of energy and rhetoric. a lot of energy, lewis, they have tried to make him seem energetic, the way he i’u ns over him seem energetic, the way he runs over the stage, speaking perhaps more loudly, more stronger than usual. full of energy, clearly, that is the message they want to get out, that this is going to be an energetic, young administration with senator harris and this is a different rhetoric than the one we have been hearing. i'm thinking back to president trump speaking about american carnage and the waste of the heartl

music: this is america by childish gambino. america isn'tjust a place. it's an idea. enduring power of the american dream is that it's universal. the craving for a better life. i'm the last mohican. donald trump said the dream was dying and he'd make america great again. i know that we will win! they want to rob you of your hope. but how great is america now as trump seeks re—election? the guy in the white house right now is crazier than a loon. welcome to arizona, america's backyard with mexico and a state threatening to swing to the democrats in the presidential election after backing donald trump in 2016. here, the issues of immigration... the worst of the worst is coming to this area... ..on race... the heart of people have held on to relics of the past. ..and covid—i9. people dying here in the camp? yeah. yeah, every day. gunshot # this is america #. they all highlight america's deep divide as voters choose between two very different visions for the country's future. i've been reporting from america for almost a quarter of a century. and i've never known it so di

that in america everyone in america should be able to go as far as their dream and god-given abilityo take them. you see, i believe in the possibility of this country. we're always looking ahead -- ahead to an america that's free and more just, ahead to america to create jobs with dignity and respect, ahead to america that cures diseases like cancer and alzheimer'ses. ahead to an america that never leaves anyone behind. ahead to an america that never gives up, never gives in. this is a great nation. t's always been a bad bet to bet against america. we're good people. this is the united states of america and there has never been anything -- never been anything we have not been able to do when we've done it together. folks, in the last stage of the campaign i began thinking about a hymn that mean as lot to me and my family, particularly my deceased son beau. it captures the faith that sustains me and which i believe sustains america. and the hope -- and i hope it can provide some comfort and so long lass to 230 million thousand americans who lost a loved one to this terrible virus this

this is americas, this is america, right here. it's over! this is the two americans right here., euphoric, in the belief that this is a new day, a new america. on the other side of this pen that he police have put up, donald trump's supporters. this scene, this moment is their nightmare. we stand for free and fair elections. we will have that in due time. what is your iq? back in lehigh, naomi thinks it's all over. i am thrilled. it was the longest election night in history though. please let us not go through that again. her neighbour kevin's mood — not pretty. i'm so off right now, because something's going on, man. this ain't right. this election has been stolen by them crooked democrats. i'm not gonna go out, go postal and start shooting things up. i think other people might though. i'm too old for that crap. i can't fight anymore. laughs. we'll see what happens. but i'm not... trump ain't going down without a fight, that's for sure. over the last four years here, anger and fear have grown. both sides see the other as dangerous. a third of americans now think violence may be

wants to address racism in america. but that believes we have to empower people and extend and deal with issues of inequity, economic inequity and there certainly exposed to that. and so as always, i am more hopeful today that i was at the end of 1968 having lived through those turbulent times. so having said that, i think frankly the president and his approach to issues in governance, represents a clear challenge to the continuation constitutional democracy in america. i live with that every day in congress. that has to be addressed in the selection were going to go in a very different direction. none envisioned by our founders, abraham lincoln. a lot of us are we love and care about our country. peter: we talk to your colleague and friend representative tom cole, the republican of oklahoma yesterday. he said usually talk about books quite often produced one of his great guy. he's not somebody was need jerk reaction. or in a partisan way. to every issue that comes his way. i've enjoyed our friendship. if we do share th

we have made america strong again. we have made america proud again. we have made america safe again. and we will make america great again. thank you very much, michigan. thank you. [ cheering and applause ]
