Opinion | Biden Will Make America Lead Again

We need a president with decency and a sense of respect.

Retired Navy Admiral William McRaven is the former head of U.S. Special Operations Command, and the man who oversaw the raid that killed Osama bin Laden. He is not exactly a rabid liberal Democrat: “I am a pro-life, pro-Second Amendment, small-government, strong-defense and a national-anthem-standing conservative.”

Admiral McRaven cast his vote for Joe Biden.

“I also believe that black lives matter, that the Dreamers deserve a path to citizenship, that diversity and inclusion are essential to our national success, that education is the great equalizer, that climate change is real and that the First Amendment is the cornerstone of our democracy. ... the world no longer looks up to America ... They have seen our incompetence in handling the pandemic and the wildfires. They have seen us struggle with social injustice. They no longer think we can lead, because they have seen an ineptness and a disdain for civility that is beyond anything in their memory.”

Mornings

For many years, I arose in the morning darkness to head out to swimming practice. Even now, in order to swim before the demands of the day (and horrible traffic on Interstate 95) make such an endeavor problematic, year of habit lead me to naturally wake up at 4:30 am. I don’t always swim, but I am almost always up. Also ingrained is the habit of making up my bed and prayer as first things. I…
