Joe Biden who was sworn in as the 46th president of the United States on Wednesday in an address from the Lincoln Memorial called for unity, liberty and dignity "to unite against common foes hate violence disease and hopelessness." Watch: "America's story depends not on. One of us not on some of us bought on all of us on we the people that's the task before us the only way we'll get through the darkness around us," Biden asserted. "There are moments in our history when more is asked of us as Americans. We saw that in the Civil War, we saw that with Dr. King dreaming from these steps across the mall. We are in one of those moments now," the new US president told the nation. The American president urged citizens to come together while calling for "decency and dignity of love". "Pandemic, economic crisis, racial injustice, climate crisis are threats to our very democracy," he said. "I've never been more optimistic about America than I am this very day. There isn't anything we can't do," Biden said. "I will give my all to you," Biden said as he took office.

US Election 2020: Joe Biden holds lead over Trump among Indian-American voters

<p>Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden promised to draw on the best of American citizens and said he wanted to be an ally of light not of darkness.</p>

<p>"The current president has cloaked America in darkness for much too long, too much anger, too much fear, too much division. Here and now, I give you my word: if you entrust me with the presidency, I will draw on the best of us, not the worst. I will be an ally of the light not of the darkness," Biden said.</p>

<p>However, in the 47 years of his political career, Biden has done exactly the opposite. Biden has built his career by betraying the promises he makes. The man who is blaming Donald Trump for cloaking America in darkness was once accused of doing the exact same thing.</p>

<p>In 1971, Joe Biden was the Senate representative for the New Castle county council and was openly fighting for the cause of segregationists as an anti-busing crusader he vehemently opposed the practice of de-segregating schools for black Americans. His disdain for the black community prevailed in the years that followed but in 1993 Biden took his racist rhetoric one step further and called black Americans "predators" who were roaming free on the streets - an accusation that keeps coming back to bite him because Biden himself has been called a predator in the guise of a politician.</p>
