I've taken to saying President Biden. Not VP Biden.

Not Joe Biden. Not former VP Biden.

President Biden.

In emails. On the phone. Face to face conversations. At home talking with my husband. When referring to him for any reason - President Joe Biden.

President Joe Biden talking with protesters.

President Biden talked with Mr. Philonise Floyd.

President Biden to attend the funeral of George Floyd.

When anyone says, "He's not President yet".

I reply, "You see anyone else behaving like a President?"


It's a small gesture. Maybe even a meaningless one. But people can already see a clear difference in the response to the killing of George Floyd. They see the difference in the response to the protests. They're struggling under Trump's response to the pandemic. They've witnessed the last three and a half years. They've felt each of those days.

Let them hear the difference. Let them read the difference. When you post to Facebook. When you tweet. Anywhere you share on social media. When talking to people. Say it outloud to yourself.


President Biden.

President Biden.

President Joe Biden.


President Biden has already assumed the role. He is already bridging the chasm caused by Trump's inability to see the world beyond his own ego.

America is without a president in the White House. But America is not without a President.

President Biden said this.
President Biden said that.
President Biden did this.
President Biden did that.

He's already acting like a president.

Come November, let's make it official.
