Americas New President Jr Biden

Have been following CNN avidly, 
Learnt a great deal about American politics
Your Ex -President, an arrogant man to his core,
As opposed to a dedicated, humble, proud,
Soul searching man, President Joseph
Robinette Biden Jr. a Vice President before,
During President Obama’s Administration.
He has gone through so much grief,
Wife, daughter and son, their lives so brief.
He understands compassion 
It has become his passion,
To unite his country as one, no racism
All for one and one for all, only patriotism
His promise to Black lives matter
Was an easy decision, 
His Cabinet, an integration
Of every color creed and nation.
An elegant First Lady and wife Dr Jill Biden,
Will always be by The President,s side
For ever, and ever, with pride,
And with Vice President Kamala Harris
At his right hand,
How purposeful, never boring,
Or disturbing,
His Administration will be,
The world looks forward to this with glee!
We have a wonderful President too,
Have much respect for his handling
Of the Pandemic, President Cyril Ramaphosa,
A refined, gentle man who also
Rules his Rainbow Nation, with Pride.
Hope President Biden comes to South Africa
Soon, I would love them to meet,
That would really neat,
For our Country has magic scenery 
And traditions to behold,
For the brave, free, mighty and bold!

I really do hope and pray Jen , Cyril does a good job for all South Africans. I thought he was much like Trump in regards to he had his own money or wealth so his motives should be altruistic. After reading your Early Addiction poem it inspired me to write my own version which i hope you will read at some point please

I have to agree with John Watt here. I really hope that Biden doesn't go along with the track record of most of the Democrats. God Bless My Friend. JB

You write these words with the positivity and optimism that are your signature trademark dear Jenny. We in America do hope there will be a return to decency and civility, and a striving for unity and the common good. Well said, my friend! Blessings and hugs ~ John

Hi John, I hope all the good you hope for becomes a reality, things have changed so much for the American people, you have all gone through a lot. South Africa would be an option for Americans to move to, it is an amazing country, think about it, I know of one family already that have applied to move here. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

WoW! Jennifer, You've penned an excellent tribute to President Biden and his administration. He as has his work cut out for him. They are folk that’s upset that he won the presidency, but he did. There was an election, and he won , and he is my new President, and he has my support. Have a wonderful day, my friend from across the pond:-) Alexis

Thank-you Vijay, i don't know too much about American politics, but have been listening to the Trump drama for months, so picked up about the democrats as well. What happened at Capitol Hill the world was shocked about and as for the impeachment not going through I hope whoever is/are responsible will get his/their dues! Thank you for an awesome comment. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer

Your wisdom amazes me.. I am thrill that Trump is out. They are saying that he left the virus in limbo, He left it with no authority to distribute and other things he felt to do.. Like you said he was only thinking and looking out for himself . I hope they do impeach him so he can go to jail ...

And now no impeachment my friend, and a chance he could become America's president in 4 years time - well politics never satisfy me, results of whatever Governments promise hardly ever come true, we can only pray this one goes awry as well. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer

Hello Jennifer … to an outsider it’s like a breath of fresh air, however, the new President certainly had plenty of healing to do - thank you Jennifer - Lindsay

I think the vaccine will help us all - it has been given to many thousands perhaps millions, but the problem is the poorer countries who can't afford the vaccine for their people will infect the countries that have had it. Borders should be closed until everyone is vaccinated. Lives first, Economy 2nd. I hope we settle down too dear friend Arturo. Be blessed and safe, love Jennifer.

I am not enamored of him or the vice president. Two faced they are, same as all the others. Also, I do not drink the CNN poison. However, I am sure that many in the world are very happy today to see a "new day" and a new way. I can only pray it will not be the disaster I expect. Your poem is a sweet tribute to the new president and to your own.

The ceremony was unreal and that young girl who read a poem she wrote poem a little like a Rap tune, was just amazing. Planet earth should after this Pandemic think of harmony and communication with sincere dialogue. Thanks for a wonderful comment. Hugs and Blessings, Jennifer.
