When I heard Joe Biden speak these words as he accepted the Democratic nomination for President, I was filled with hope for our country for the first time since November 9, 2016. It is easy to get depressed about the current state of affairs, but the other day it occurred to me that this is actually one of the most hopeful elections of our lifetime. So many of us have had our hearts broken by the current administration and our faith in the institution of democracy itself shaken, but the fact that we still feel it is worth fighting for...well, that fills me with confidence that we can and will do better. This Election Day, please be an ally of the light and we can begin the necessary steps of driving out the darkness in this country.
