On Sunday, President Joe Biden did an extraordinary thing.
Democrats its time to come together and beat Trump.
That was another act of leadership, a steadying message to a reeling nation.

What was the path from here?
There are so many worthy Democrats who might declare their intentions to run.
And then, in minutes, another statement, this time from Vice President Harris.
Earn and win: Its rare in our current state of politics to hear the music of sound judgment.
Harris has it in great supply, plus formidable intelligence, not to mention a tireless energy and drive.
We have 107 days until Election Day, she wrote.
Together, we will fight.
And together, we will win.
And now we have 105.
We wholeheartedly endorse Kamala Harris for president.
We do so in a wave of excitement for Americas future.
She would also send a powerful message about womenthat they should have the freedom to make their own choices.
And of course there is who she is.
The first presidential candidate of South Asian descent, a Black American, a woman.
Harris would represent so many firsts as presidentbut that is not the reason to vote for her.
This choice isnt a choiceit never was.
