All of us must all rise together, or all of us will fall together!



It's about your hopes, It's about your dreams!
It's about what's possible when a new generation of Americans sand up and say:
"We are not going to settle for what is, we are going to imagine what might be."


You know, there is a moment like that that happens in the life of every generation. Where we shed our fear, and we shed our doubt, and we shed our cynicism. When we roll up our sleeves and arm in arm start rebuilding this country.

This is our moment, this is our time.

We are a self reliant people, we are an independent people, but we are not a people that turns our back on one another. We are a people that depends upon each other, that believes that all of us must all rise together, or all of us will fall together!

That is the American story!

YOU and I together we will change this country and we will change the world!

God bless America!

- Barak Obama, May 19, 2008

History Lesson on Senate Filibuster

With such courageous leaders , no wonder America is the 'greatest' nation on earth. Without some basic healthcare for aliens, you risk public health because diseases don't discriminate. (easy fix, increase criminal penalties for hiring illegals, with no economic refugees, then everyone is a citizen.) Without funding for reproductive health, like abortions, you sacrifice poor women to the alter of a religious mob. (easy fix, treat each individual patient based upon their stated religion, no christians get abortions at any stage of pregnancy, while others can choose more reasonable healthcare.) Without reasonable tort penalties for giant corporations, you risk public health in the name of profit maximization. (easy fix, keep unlimited tort penalties that can put irresponsible big corporations out of business, yet limit lawyer fees to a flat rate, so they don't get rich off frivolous law suits).
