Joe Biden

President Joe Biden is the first U.S. president ever elected who is an unequivocal full stop opponent of the death penalty.

This is Jim Crow in the 21st Century. It must end. We have a moral and Constitutional obligation to act.

It`s atrocity. The idea if you want any indication that it has nothing to do with fairness, nothing to do with decency. They passed the law saying you can`t provide water for people standing in line while they`re waiting to vote.

We`re in the midst of a fourth industrial revolution of enormous consequence. This is a battle between the utility of democracies in the 21st century and autocracies. We got approved democracy works.

It’s an atrocity. The idea -- if you want any indication that it has nothing to do with fairness, nothing to do with decency, they passed a law saying you can’t provide water for people standing in line while they’re waiting to vote? You…

That`s atrocity. The idea -- if you want any indication that it has nothing to do with fairness, nothing to do with decency, they passed a law saying you can`t provide water for people standing in line while they`re waiting to vote.

We’re building back up the capacity that should have been maintained and built upon that Trump dismantled. It’s going to take time.

The way to deal with this problem... is putting together a bipartisan plan of over $700 million to deal with the root causes of why people are leaving.

I plan on making progress on all of them, but that’s going to be for the American people to decide.

Help is here, and hope is on the way.

I got elected to solve problems. The most urgent problem facing the American people... was COVID-19 and the economic dislocation for millions.

There weren't any indication that it has nothing to do with fairness, nothing to do with decency. They passed a law saying you can't provide water for people standing in line while they're waiting to vote. You don't need anything else to…

It`s an atrocity. They passed a law saying you can`t provide water for people standing in line? This is nothing but punitive, designed to keep people from voting. You can`t provide water for people about to vote. Give me a break.

Joe Biden, you owe us. Black people put you in power. You owe us. You owe us. Don’t forget, we put you in power just now.

The question for him is, is that more important, is kind of saving American democracy more important than saving the filibuster?

The elected officials. I’m talking about voters, Republican voters, agree with what I’m doing. Unless Mitch says the last thing I did is -- the last piece of legislation is so far left, well, then he ought to a look at his party. Over 50…

I believe we should go back to a position of the filibuster that has existed just when I came to the United States Senate 20 years ago. It`s been abused in a gigantic way.

This makes Jim Crow look like Jim Eagle. I mean, this is gigantic what they`re trying to do. And it cannot be sustained.

The most powerful man in the world has intellectual curiosity and a desire to want to know for its own sake.

He knows the filibuster is not being used how it should be used, how it was meant to be used.

He thinks we have to work through many channels to get more done to keep our communities safe.

He certainly wanted to know what we thought about particular issues and crises.

He was a man of profound humility, willing to engage people, to absorb their sagacity, their wisdom, their insight, their analytical acuity.

So, I strongly support moving in that direction.

But I can guarantee we can make everything better. we can make it better. We can change the lives of so many people.
