DETROIT, Michigan.-President Joe Biden told a jubilant crowd at a campaign rally Friday in Detroit, Michigan that "I am running and we are going to win," quashing speculation that he will quit the presidential race against Republican former President Donald Trump amid mounting pressure from some key Democrats regarding his age at 81, and his mental acuity, or what some naysayers say is the lack thereof.

Crowd members repeatedly yelled "we love you," "we got your back," and "four more years," as the president spoke at the rally podium, an indication that the race is heating up as the Nov. 5, 2024 presidential election nears and Biden and Trump, the respective nominees for the Republican and Democratic parties, are neck and neck in several polls, Trump seeking a comeback win for his 2020 election loss to the incumbent president.

“I’m the nominee of this party because 14 million Democrats like you voted for me in the primaries,” Biden said. “You made me the nominee, no one else. Not the press, not the pundits, not the insiders, not donors, you the voters. You decided, no one else, and I’m not going anywhere.”

Biden preached on a similar list of things that Vice President Kamala Harris mentioned in her keynote speech at the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Inc national conference in Dallas, Texas on Wednesday, including protecting education, social security, medicaid, medicare and the Affordable Care Act, lowering insulin and other drug prices, reducing inflation, and tackling street assault weapons and gun violence.

President Biden told the upbeat Detroit crowd that "Motown is Joe Town," and that "We are going to beat Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans. Donald Trump is a loser."

Biden's campaign rally on Friday in the largely Black city of Detroit in the swing state of Michigan, a state he won over Trump in 2020, comes as both he and Trump are courting the Black vote leading up to the presidential election, both bragging during CNN's June 27 presidential debate about what they claim to have done to improve the lives of Black Americans.
