I've made the preservation of American democracy the central issue of my presidency.

I believe in free and fair elections and the right to vote fairly and have your vote counted.

There's something dangerous happening in America.

There's an extremist movement and does not share the basic beliefs in our democracy.

All of us are being asked right now, what will we do to maintain our democracy?

History's watching.

The world is watching.

And most important our children and grandchildren will hold us responsible.

The Vice president and I have supported voting rights since day one of this administration, and I ask every American to join me in this cause.

America's still a place of possibilities where the power resides with We the People.

That's our soul.

We are the United States of America.

There is nothing beyond our capacity, and we act together.

I'm Joe Biden and I approve this message.
