President-elect Biden is working on his inaugural address with family and adviser Mike Donilon, a transition official tells NBC News. The address will emphasize themes from his campaign: unity, healing and a vision for the many crises the country faces.

Jan. 17, 2021, 8:47 PM UTCAs President-elect Joe Biden prepares to take office facing more crises than any other president in modern American history, the stakes for his inaugural address couldn't be higher.

A Democratic source said that while some of the most famous lines in American political history are from inaugural addresses — Abraham Lincoln's"malice toward none, charity toward all," Franklin D. Roosevelt's"only thing we have to fear is fear itself," John F. Kennedy's"ask not what your country can do for you" — most Americans probably couldn't recall major lines from most of the rest.

that, if he was elected, he would use his address to say:"I'm an American President. I represent all of you, whether you voted for me or against me, and I'm going to make sure that you're represented."

Just say I accept period. 👍🏿

It shouldn’t be that hard. 😳🤔👍🏿

Biden should let James Carville take a look at the final draft before he delivers it. Loyal Americans were attacked, and for the very best of reasons are in no mood to sing Kumbaya at this moment, & even the ever parsing Carville has finally wised-up to that political calculation

No unity without accountability first.

Feel sorry, but at the same time, optimistic about the future. Biden inherited a mess from Trump, and it’s going to be a difficult and painful process to bring this country back, at least in some part, to the grandiose world status it once had.

Persistence and compromise... Persistence and compromise...

That’s great but let’s get him & Harris sworn in in safety first & foremost.

No cursing! No adlibbing please! Stick to the script!

Senile oldman.

Healing for Democrats. Not healing for country. Wait to see if he legislates from a moderate position or one like Obama who blamed bible carring, gun tooting Americans for all the ills like middle class families in love with SUV's instead of subcompact cars for climate change

And a special thanks to my crack head son Hunter

How are those prompt cards coming lol

The solution here is to re-enact an inauguration before cameras were invented, when it was just the open prairie, wind and a selective ribbon, few good men in the room, short signing. Since when do pop singers make a difference?

Make sure to give him directions to the White House while you are at it.

It is inconceivable that this fraudster could do the right thing

JoeBiden Please avoid the 'empty chair across the table' statement. Its been overused. We dont want sympathy. We want action and positive motivation! No sorrow speeches. We've had enough of that all year long! Thanks Mr. Pres. Elect Biden! You'll do great!

Unity? Healing? As I predicted, nothing about equal justice under the law which is definitely one of the main crises we face. You cannot heal if those who injured you remain free to keep doing so. Don't ask Black people to unite with racists and fascists.

I hope it’s short, he won’t be able to go for long at all. Doesn’t matter in the end because it will be the least attended and viewed inauguration in history.

And accountability. We must bring the lies, misinformation and crimes into public view. And those responsible must be held accountable. Strength, not extortion, will bring true unity.

He says those things but his actions are different.

Yay the racist is out of office!!

I love the slogan... build back better

If Trump is not held accountable in the name of reconciliation, JoeBiden will lose my vote

First let's hope he can remember the name of the country he's president of

Hey trumpets, drew brees shouldnt have made that comment about the dumb ass flag huh? 🤣🎉 enjoy that L...especially you Louisiana trumpets 🐶😂

We really don’t seem to be taking this Capitol attack very seriously! What Law enforcement is doing right now is nothing compared to what needs to happen! They must round up everyone who helped incite it like laurenboebert , Trump, Giuliani etc! They declared War in America!

Let's go America!
