The United States: Nation that Needs to be Rebuilt Itself, Joe Biden, and Kamala Harris

Once more, the world is set to alter. Americans picked the 46th president of the United States in one of the most closely contested elections in history at the conclusion of a year marked by unfathomable occurrences. The two new faces of the White House are Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. Tens of millions of people's hopes were sparked by their triumph, but they still face a difficult task. It will be intriguing to see how they attempt to lead the United States out of its most precarious situation in recent memory. Knowing Joe Biden and Kamala Harris' White House will look like best comes from understanding who they are and what they have accomplished thus far. Because politics and power don't change people: they reveal them for who they are. Jensen Cox then draws a portrait of the new presidency by going through the extraordinary biographies of the two protagonists, and the moments that have marked their lives. From the 1972 election campaign, with which Joe Biden became the youngest United States senator, to the vice presidency alongside Barack Obama, from Kamala Harris' childhood in the West Coast African American ghettos to her career as a lawyer and prosecutor that l 'led her to write her name in American history even before she became the first woman, first person of color, and first Indian-American vice president of the United States of America. The victories, the defeats, the mistakes tell us something not only about the type of president and vice president who will rule the greatest world power, but also of the lessons they have learned throughout their lives, of how they have faced adversaries and obstacles. Above all, those victories, defeats and mistakes are representative "of a community that goes far beyond their people". Because "in their qualities and their limits, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris resemble America".
