Joe Biden and closely allied Democratic groups raise $70 million during their four-day convention this week
Joe Biden accepted the Democratic presidential nomination with a vow to be a unifying “ally of the light” who would move an America in crisis past the chaos of President Donald Trump’s tenure.
Still, the convention leaned on a younger generation earlier in the night to help energize his sprawling coalition. And Pete Buttigieg, the 38-year-old former South Bend, Indiana, mayor, and a gay military veteran, noted that Biden came out in favour of same-sex marriage as vice president even before President Barack Obama.
Biden’s positive focus Thursday night marked a break from the dire warnings offered by Obama and others the night before.
