MY husband and I watched what may go down in history as a great inaugural speech on Wednesday!

Mr Biden was the voice of reason, and appealed to the American people to think carefully about their attitude to returning America to the values that once made the country respected throughout the world.

Warning everyone that there is hard work to be done to repair the damage done by the outgoing administration, run by a person whose only plan in life is to feather his own nest, satisfy his huge ego, and stir up dissent to further these selfish ends.

I have no axe to grind about the different political parties in the states, but surely Americans can see this man has the best interest of the people at his heart and will support him.

Good luck Joe Biden !
