Biden said he wants to report that "democracy has prevailed, democracy has delivered, and now democracy must be preserved."

"We're facing an inflection point, one of those rare moments in history when the decisions we make now will determine the fate of our nation and the world for decades to come. That's not hyperbole. I mean it literally. We're in a battle for the very soul of America," he said. 

He spoke about what occurred in Charlottesville, Virginia, in 2017 and how it motivated him to run for president again. 

"I ran for president in 2020 because of what I saw in Charlottesville," he said. "Extremists coming out of the woods, carrying torches, their veins bulging from their necks, carrying Nazi swastikas, chanting the same exact antisemitic bile that was heard in Germany in the early ’30s, neo-Nazis, white supremacists, the Ku Klux Klan, so emboldened by a president then in the White House that they saw as an ally [that] they didn't even bother to wear their hoods."
