  Welker : This is about leadership, gentlemen. Imagine this is your Inauguration Day. What will you say in your address to Americans who did not vote for you? You’ll each have one minute. Biden : I will say, ‘I’m the 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. I’m going to give you hope. We're going to move. We're going to choose science over fiction. We're going to choose hope over fear. We're going to choose to move forward because we have enormous opportunities, enormous opportunities to make things better.   We can grow this economy. We can deal with a systemic racism. At the same time, we can make sure that our economy is being run, and moved, and motivated by clean energy, creating millions of new jobs. And that's the fact, that's what we're going to do.

The reasons why we celebrate Thanksgiving on the fourth Thursday of November every year

Image
  It is known that Thanksgiving is a federal holiday in the United States celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November. Outside the United States, it is sometimes called American Thanksgiving to distinguish it from the Canadian holiday of the same name and related celebrations in other regions. The dinner often consists of foods associated with New England harvest celebrations: turkey, potatoes (usually mashed and sweet), squash, corn (maize), green beans, cranberries (typically as cranberry sauce), and pumpkin pie, but has expanded over the years to include specialties from other regions of the United States, such as pecan pie (the American South) and wild rice stuffing (the Great Lakes region) as well as international and ethnic dishes. In 1621, the Plymouth colonists from England and the Native American Wampanoag people shared an autumn harvest feast that is acknowledged as one of the first Thanksgiving celebrations in the colonies. For more than two centuries, days of than...

Image
  The Golden Globe Awards are awards presented for excellence in both international film and television. It is an annual award ceremony held since 1944 to honor artists and professionals and their work. The ceremony is normally held every January, and has been a major part of the film industry's awards season, which culminates each year in the Academy Awards. The 1st Golden Globe Awards, honoring the best achievements in 1943 filmmaking, were held late on January 20, 1944, at the 20th Century Fox studios in Los Angeles, California. A group of Los Angeles-based foreign journalists came up with the idea for the Golden Globes to help the distribution of cinema to non-U.S. markets. They initially created the Hollywood Foreign Correspondents Association in 1943. By then, the Academy Awards were well-established and the organization realized what a good idea it would be to have a similar award ceremony, to honor film contributions from American and foreign cinema.
