I Salute President Biden and Vice-President Harris – Part 1

As I write this article, I hold in my hand ten (10) pages of fact sheets listing some of the great accomplishments of the Biden-Harris Administration.

I make the bold assertion that President Biden will not receive credit, honor and admiration for these great accomplishments in his lifetime. I hope I am wrong. I pray that history and historians will be fair and just to President Biden and his administration. At this moment, democrats, republicans, writers and media are occupied with the full and complete pardon granted to President Biden’s son, Hunter Biden. Let me say without hesitation, I am glad the President granted this pardon! I liken this to the parable of the Prodigal Son found in the Gospel of Luke 15:11-32.

Let me return to the history-making… history-bearing, global significance of the past four years. I do not believe that any president since Lincoln, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and Truman have faced more national and global challenges than Biden.

Let me list a few of President Biden’s accomplishments for the immediate moment. Hopefully, history will give long-term examination and just consideration on a far more comprehensive basis:

  1. Small Businesses; the fastest rate of Black-owned businesses in 30 years.
  2. SBA-backed loans to Black-owned businesses more than doubled.
  3. Over $69 billion to small and disadvantaged business in 2023.
  4. Helped more than 37,000 farmers and ranchers who were in financial distress.
  5. Created a $27 billion Greenhouse Reduction Fund.
  6. Transformational initiatives in housing to eliminate discrimination and help thousands get FHA-insured loans.
  7. Approved over $136 billion in student loan debt cancellation.
  8. The largest increase in Pell Grants in 10 years.
  9. Delivered over $7 billion to support HBCUs. I pray this will continue and be greatly increased for years to come.
  10. Secured $130 billion to help students get back to school and recover after the historic challenge of COVID-19.
  11. President Biden secured a 30% increase in child care assistance funding in 2023. Black families comprise 38% of families benefitting from this program.
  12. President Biden secured $1 billion additional funds for Head Start.
  13. President Biden increased Black enrollment through the Affordable Care Act by 49%.

All the above listings are a mere short list out of a catalog of great life-saving achievements of the Biden Administration. I have not touched Foreign Policy, NATO, and his recent historical visit to Angola. This list of greatness is highly abbreviated! We should be lifting up the greatness of the Biden-Harris Administration rather than demeaning the President’s compassionate act of giving a pardon to his beloved son, Hunter Biden.

May we forever remember the eternal teaching: “Blessed are the merciful for they shall obtain mercy.” President Biden is a leader of faith, wisdom, courage and historic achievements. He has done so much that is great in such a brief time. To ignore all of the above and demonize one act of love, mercy, compassion and constitutional authority is seriously “missing the mark.”
