President Biden addressed the nation Wednesday night standing at the feet of Abraham Lincoln Memorial during a televised and star-studded celebration of the historic inauguration. Biden said "We're good people. Unity forces us to come together in common love that defines us as Americans.” The 46th president urged the public to come together, saying it's "the only way we'll get through the darkness around us." The inaugural program, called Celebrating America, featured several tributes to the extraordinary efforts by nurses, doctors, teachers and other frontline workers who have stepped up throughout the coronavirus pandemic. In her first remarks to the nation as vice president, Kamala Harris echoed the president's call to unite in the days ahead.Harris said "In many ways this moment embodies our character as nation. Even in dark times, we not only dream, we do. We shoot for the moon and then we plant our flag on it, We are bold, we are fearless and ambitious. We are undaunted in our belief that we shall overcome that we will rise up. A great experiment takes great determination. The will to do the work and then the wisdom to keep refining, keep tinkering, keep perfecting." Although much of the program hit several somber notes, the two-hour show was interspersed with several performances by a variety of singers, musicians, artists and actors. First rating reports indicate that yesterdays inauguration was the most watched Presidential inauguration in history.
