Leadership in action
A sign of Joe Biden’s leadership is his “go big” plan to confront the coronavirus and revive our COVID-sickened economy.
On Thursday, Biden asked Americans to “imagine a future” beyond the virus. Devoid of a moderate Democrat’s typical shyness about government spending, he talked like a progressive, pledging “historic investments” in vaccinations and public relief, coupled with jobs creation in “infrastructure, manufacturing, innovation, research and development, clean energy.”
Then there was this: “Imagine a future made in America.” Sound a little populist? He went on: “We’ll use taxpayers’ dollars to rebuild America, buy American products, support millions of American manufacturing jobs.”
It sounds good. Like the beginning of leadership in unity.
