Vice-President Kamala Harris with President Joe Biden at the inauguration
economically stretched countries. He
will not be that unapproachable leader
who rules with an iron fist, but one who
will bridge gaps with bonhomie and a
gentlemanly stance.
Truth be told, behind every politician is a
wise person who helps him steer the course
and in Joe Biden’s case it will probably
be former President Barack Obama. The
pundits that conjecture attribute the pick
of Kamala Harris for the Vice Presidency to
none other than the Obamas, with Michelle
playing an active role in the think tank.
There is much to be fixed and President
Biden will not waste time on trivialities.
The next four years will mend global
relations and America will once again gain
its rightful place as a world leader.
Such is the resilience of a senior who is
defined by a core set of values that do not
deter him from his chosen path. In the
next few years, an enigmatic Joe Biden
10
will prove that age is but a number and
become the poster boy for those of us who
dare to dream with a bucket list of wishes
remaining to be fulfilled in this, our last lap
of a glorious life.
