For this is your home, my friend, do not be driven from it; great men have done great things here and will again, and we can make America what American must become.
This quote has been stuck in my head recently. I have not given up hope that our nation can still be rooted in democracy and move towards progressive policies that benefit its citizens.

I have talked to people who make $100,000 a year, and fight for the billionaires because they think they are close in status.

If we stay grounded in those 3 goals, maybe we can do even more
