Why I am a Democrat...
I choose to belong to a party of inclusion A party that includes the affluent
and the working perspective. A party that looks out for the "least amoung us" whether we be old, minority, women, immigrant,
sick, children...
I am a Democrat because I too believe in the fundamental right of all Americans to participate
in our nations prosperity.
I beleive in a government that enhances the lives of its citizans with affordable health care,
cleaner environment, strong living standards, and an innovative educational system. Most of all I am a Democrat because
I believe in the will of the people.
I am a Democrat because I believe in the lives of the everyday people that make up our country...
I am a Democrat because I know Democrats put the people first, and the country is a better place
when a Democrat is in office...
I believe in a clean environement...
Democratic Governor Adlai Stevenson at the 1952 Convention, "what counts now is not what we are
against, but what we are for. Who leads us is less important than what lead - what convictions, what courage, what faith
- win or lose."
I am a Democrat first and foremost because Democrast embrace diversity, equality, and individualism...
I am a Democrat because we are a party that passionately believes in suporting the goals and
ideals of those folks in America whose voices must be heard the most- mothers, fathers, children, teachers, police officers,
nurses, students, the ederly, the middle class, the working classs, the poor, the homeless, the hungry, the sick, and the
needy....
"We have always known that heedless self-interest was bad morals;
we know now that it is bad economics.
Out of the collapse of a prosperity
whose builders boasted their practicality
has come the conviction that in the long run economic morality
pays."
Franklin D. Rooosevelt
(Second Inaugural Address, January 20, 1937)
