When speaking to reporters at the White House, Biden opened with, “How silently, how silently, the magnificent gift is given.”
Despite not mentioning the child’s name, the president remarked of a “child” who was born on Christmas.
“We look to the sky to a lone star, shining brighter than all the rest guiding us to the birth of a child, a child that Christians believe to be the Son of God,” he said.
As he celebrated Christmas, President Biden urged us to embrace the “light” and bring peace into our lives. He reminded us of what we can gain from cherishing this joyous holiday season beyond presents and treats – a chance for reflection on hope that endures through even dark times.
“That light is still with us, illuminating our way forward as Americans and citizens of the world, a light that burned at the beginning and at Bethlehem,” he said.
The president urged Americans to set aside their political differences and work as a country of shared values this Christmas. He urged us to remember that, even during tense political debates, we can all work to uphold our shared convictions.
“I sincerely hope this holiday season will drain the poison that has infected our politics and set us against one another,” he said.
Regardless of their political views, Americans were exhorted by Vice President Biden to work toward harmony and understanding. He urged everyone to look past political differences in order to unite as one nation that is stronger than its divisions.
“And look. Really look at each other. Not as Democrats or Republicans, not as members of team red or team blue, but as who we really are. Fellow Americans,” he said.
The president has advised us to be kind to one another over this Christmas season in order to spread happiness and love. Let’s unite as a nation and extend a gesture of goodwill, no matter how modest.
“It might just be the best gift you can ever give,” he said.
