it matters. our democracy is more than a system of government. it s the very soul of america. it s how we ve been able to constantly adapt through the centuries. it is why we ve always emerged from every challenge stronger than we went in. it s how we ve come together as one nation united. just as our fallen heros have kept the element of faith with our democracy, we must keep faith with them. because of them, all of them, we stand here today. we will never forget that. we will never, ever, ever stop working to make a more perfect union, in which they live and which they died for. that was their problem. that s our promise. that s our promise today to them and our promise always. good morning. welcome to morning joe. it is tuesday, may 28th. that was president biden marking memorial day at arlington national cemetery with a somber message about freedom, democracy, and honoring those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. it certainly is a day for reflection
