Note: on this Inauguration Day, I wish new President Biden all the best. I pray he is successful at doing what is best for the United States of America, reuniting our country in true unity, and helping to create a strong US economy with millions of new private sector jobs. I would like nothing better than seeing him serve out his entire four year term, with a strong body and clear mind. Godspeed, Joe Biden.
