Joe Biden: "I’ve never been more optimistic about America’s prospects in my entire career"

"For everything we’ve been through, I’ve never been more optimistic about America’s prospects in my entire career.  My word: I’ve never been more optimistic.  Just remember who in the hell we are.  We’re the United States of America.  There’s nothing — nothing we’ve ever set our mind to that we’ve not been able to do.  Nothing!"

That's what Joe Biden said in his 7 October 2022 Remarks on the Economy and the September Jobs Report.

Speaking in Detroit on the "Electric Vehicle Manufacturing Boom in America", President Joe Biden said, "You know, you all know I’m a car guy.  I’m here because the auto show and the vehicles here give me so many reasons to be optimistic about the future.  And I really mean it.  Just looking at them and driving them, they just give me a sense of optimism, although I like the speed too. 

In my book, Optimism "The How and Why",  I quote President Biden:

"I’m always optimistic."

"There is overwhelming reason to be optimistic.”

"Democracy begins and will be preserved in we, the people's habits of heart, in our character: optimism that is tested yet endures, courage that digs deep when we need it, empathy that fuels democracy, the willingness to see each other not as enemies but as fellow Americans."
