Our Ideas Need To Become Part Of

The Republicans Are Many Things, But They're Not Dumb. And If Millions Of People Begin To Stand Up And Fight Back, They're Going To Be Thinking Twice About Doing Very Bad Things.

At A Young Age, I Became Very Aware That Not Only Did My Family Have To Struggle But That Families Around The Country Were Struggling As Well. Also, Being Jewish And Having Lost Relatives In The Holocaust, I've Always Been Aware Of The Meaning Of Prejudice. These Are Things That Have Remained With Me Throughout My Political Career.

I Think What The American People Are Saying Is Enough Is Enough. This Country, This Great Country, Belongs To All Of Us. It Cannot Continue To Be Controlled By A Handful Of Billionaires Who Apparently Want It All.

We're Not Going To Give Tax Breaks To Billionaires And Then Cut Back On The Needs Of Our Elderly Or Poor Or Kids Or Education. We're Not Going To Privatize Social Security - In Fact, We're Going To Strengthen It. We're Going To Provide Quality Education For Every Kid In America, From Preschool Through College. We Have To Take On These Corporate Leaders Who Are Selling Out The American People, Whose Allegiance Is Now Much More To China Than It Is To The United States. If We Have The Courage To Take These People On, I Think We Can Overwhelm George W. Bush And His Friends.

We Need A Very Progressive And Strong Agenda To Bring People Into The Political Process Because I Worry Very Much About The Future Of The American Democracy Where So Many People Are Giving Up.
