On the final night of the @demconvention, Joe Biden officially accepted the Democratic presidential nomination.⁣

Speaking before a row of flags in his home state, Delaware, Biden gave a speech urging Americans to have faith that they could “overcome this season of darkness,” and pledged that he would seek to bridge the country’s political divisions in ways President Trump had not.⁣

“The current president has cloaked America in darkness for much too long — too much anger, too much fear, too much division,” Biden said. “Here and now, I give you my word: If you entrust me with the presidency, I will draw on the best of us, not the worst. I will be an ally of the light, not the darkness.”⁣

The party has offered @joebiden less as a traditional partisan standard-bearer than as a comforting national healer, capable of restoring normalcy and calm to the U.S. and returning its federal government to working order. He has campaigned as an apostle of personal decency and political conciliation, and as a transitional figure who would take on some of the worst American crises — not just the coronavirus outbreak but also economic inequality, climate change and gun violence — before handing off power to another generation.⁣

That rising generation, defined by its diversity and in many cases by its liberalism, was evident on Thursday, as it has been throughout the week — the program leading up to Biden’s address included speakers such as @senduckworth, an Asian-American military veteran; @keishabottoms, one of the country’s most prominent Black mayors; and @pete.buttigieg, the first openly gay major presidential candidate. And after his acceptance speech, Biden and his wife, Jill, were joined by his running mate, Senator Kamala Harris, and her husband, Douglas Emhoff on stage.⁣

The former vice president said that while he is a Democratic candidate, he will be “an American president.” And in an implicit contrast with Trump, Biden said he would “work hard for those who didn’t support me.”⁣

“This is not a partisan moment,” he said. “This must be an American moment.”⁣
