In two days Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr. (Joe Biden) will take the oath of office as president. Rather than reciting words written for him by people half his age, he would do well to embrace the words of the second inaugural address by Abraham Lincoln in 1865 at the end of the Civil War. A war, not a riot.

"With malice toward none with charity for all with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right let us strive on to finish the work we are in to bind up the nation's wounds, to care for him who shall have borne the battle and for his widow and his orphan ~ to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves and with all nations."
