2020年美国总统大选投票从爱荷华州吹响号角，正式进入紧张激烈的初选角逐。从五个早投票州开始，到“超级星期二”（大选年三月份的第一个周二，同一天内有最多的州同时初选投票），再到7月份正式决出各党的总统候选人。民主党的各候选人在经历了长达一年左右的竞选造势之后，现在是进入让选民“打分”的“考场”环节。共和党本次大选的党代表候选人毫无悬念则是竞选连任的川普。近期，我们将根据选情，陆续刊发针对不同候选人的介绍，帮助读者朋友们深入了解大选信息。
整整一年前，2019的2月10日，明尼苏达美国国会参议员艾米·克洛布查（Amy Klobuchar）在大雪纷飞中宣布参加2020年美国总统民主党候选人的竞选。
我来美国35年， 几乎都在这个雪飘时间可以长达6个月的地方度过，其中10年是共和党全国委员会资助人士，20年是民主党派驻总统选举投票站的监票人员。我个人认为共和党和民主党的基本理念是一样的， 否则美国不会这样伟大。所以就总统选举来说，什么党不是第一重要，最重要的是竞选人的人品。
这就是我在一年前的那个严冬的下午，来到源于明尼苏达州的密西西比河中的一个小岛， 参加艾米宣布参选的群众集会的原因， 因为艾米是一位正直勇敢理智文明的政治家。
我无需繁述艾米的政绩，有目共睹有案备查。我只想根据我的亲身体会，告诉大家，艾米参议员的团队，是最乐意帮助所有有正当需求民众的团队。我曾经为一位需要帮助的非公民人士，特意地给明州的两位联邦参议员（2民主党）和八位众议员（5民3共）同一天投出同样的求助信，艾米的团队是最快答复而且是唯一跟踪结果的。因为信中说明是非公民人士求助，并不直接涉及到选票的事情，所以其他八位有快慢不同的回应，仅有那个已经被选下的共和党女众议员根本没有理睬。
我还想告诉大家，艾米对新移民社区倾力支持，从学区安排到社区集会，从经济补助到文化多元化，就如她在下面的演说中提到：“我们必须克服的最后一个障碍是共同前进。停止散布恐惧，停止仇恨。我们可能来自不同的地方。我们可能以不同的方式祈祷。我们可能看起来有所不同。和爱不同。但是所有人都生活在共同的梦想中。”
下面是艾米宣布竞选大会上的演讲，仅供参考。
大家好！欢迎来到繁盛岛。我们在哪？我们不会让寒冷阻止我们，对吗？你们还觉得冷吗？
民选领导人不仅应该去舒适的地方，还应该去不舒适的地方，这是我（选择零下十多度的室外作为竞选开启场地）的用意。
我的先生约翰、女儿阿比盖尔（John and Abigail）和我，一起感谢我们出色而辛勤的团队，他们将令人难以置信的人们聚集到明尼阿波利斯市。
我们的代表团来自全州。感谢我的朋友蒂娜·史密斯参议员，州长沃尔兹和副州长佩吉·弗拉纳根，她是美国任职最高的印第安裔。还要感谢市长，专员和议员。
谢谢达德利D.，您和歌王普林斯一起旅行了很多年，明州的非裔之声乐队，教士拉比·齐默曼......感谢来自全国各地，以及明尼阿波利斯和圣保罗双子城的朋友。
今天我们聚集在密西西比河上，这条河是美国的大河，直通美国中部和腹地。它的名字取自美洲印第安人的“水之父”一词。
它发源于北方。和你们中的许多人一样，小时候，我很激动地说我已经到过了伊塔斯卡湖，跃过密西西比河。
然后它流到这里，到双子城，然后到我妈妈出生的威斯康星州，变得越来越宽。
然后到爱荷华州……许多明尼苏达州人冬天喜欢去的南部一点的地方。至少我是如此。
然后再到伊利诺伊州，一个产生了从亚伯拉罕·林肯(Abraham Lincoln)到巴拉克·奥巴马(Barack Obama)，等许多杰出总统的地方。
然后，河水蜿蜒流向圣路易斯，在这里您会看到一个大拱门，这是纪念我们国家的先驱者的门户。
继续前往肯塔基州和田纳西州的孟菲斯。小马丁·路德·金博士四月一日去那里参加环卫工人捍卫尊严的斗争。他在山顶讲道如何看待应许之地。
然后到阿肯色州和密西西比州。一直到新奥尔良，这里充满了抗争精神。
密西西比河……所有的支流将我们……彼此相连。成为我们共同的故事。
这个国家就是这样建立的，爱国者看到的更多的是团结他们而不是分裂他们。
这就是这座城市-米尔市-和我们国家沿着这条河以及我们国家的铁路和公路繁荣发展的基础，人们的共同信念是共同享有繁荣，这将为所有人带来更好的生活。这就是我们成为世界民主灯塔的方式，每个人都在其中发挥作用。
离我们这里下游约一英里的地方，在一个美丽的夏日，一座大桥塌陷到密西西比河。那天我说过，在美国中部不应该坍塌任何一座桥。那也不是我们国家最交通繁忙的桥梁之一。约翰、阿比盖尔和我几乎每天都开车经过，离我们家仅几步之遥。但是悲剧就是发生了。
Pioneer Press
忽然，全国的注意力放到了我们州。那天，美国以非常深入的方式看到了每个人（的奉献）都很重要。每一个人。
在下班的消防员中看到了它，他们一次又一次地潜入浑浊的水中，在数十辆卡车和汽车中寻找生还者。
在兼职卡车司机保罗·埃克斯塔特(Paul Eickstadt)的故事中看到了这一点。他牺牲了自己的生命，猛转方向盘改道，拯救了一辆满是孩子的校车。
他们在学校工作人员杰里米·埃尔南德斯(Jeremy Hernandez)那里看到了它，那辆校车在坠落了30英尺后摇摇欲坠地悬挂在护栏旁，他从那辆奇迹校车上救了每个孩子。
后来，我们通过跨党派协作获得联邦资金，并在短短一年多的时间里重建了I-35W桥。
那是社区。那是大家一起的故事。那是平凡的人在做非凡的事情。
但是，由于政治中的琐碎和恶毒的一面，整个国家的这种社区意识正在经历分裂。我们都厌倦了一次次的（政府）关门，僵局和哗众取宠。
今天我们要说，够了。
我们国家的管理必须脱离混乱干扰，建立在机遇之上。不沉迷于错误所在，而是无保留地朝着正确的方向前进。这必须从我们所有人开始。
我家人的故事就像你们许多人一样。我妈妈和爸爸这边的前人，他们带着手提箱只身来到了这个国家。但是他们在这里安家。
当时天很冷。（也许不像今天这种冷）。
他们不认识任何人。但是，像许多移民一样，他们希望他们的家人过上更好的生活。
我的祖父在铁岭以北的地下1,500英尺处的矿井中工作。他没上完过高中。但是他把钱存到地下室的一个咖啡罐里，供我的父亲上大学。
我90岁的父亲今天也与我们在一起，他从维米林初级学院获得了两年制学位，然后在明尼苏达大学毕业。后来成为一名记者。
作为年轻的美联社记者，他曾为1960年约翰·肯尼迪(John F. Kennedy)竞选总统。他报道了1968年的党代会。他采访了从迈克·迪特卡(Mike Ditka)到休伯特·汉弗莱(Hubert Humphrey)到罗纳德·里根(Ronald Reagan)到姜·罗杰斯(Ginger Rogers)的所有人。新闻自由对父亲来说不只是个抽象的好主意。他捍卫拥抱过它。他的职业生命建立于上。
我的母亲，一个自豪的工会成员，在郊区教二年级，直到70岁退休。现在已经长大的她的学生们在街上遇到我时，依然走过来告诉我她是他们最喜欢的老师。
因此，今天，在我们国家心脏地带的密西西比州河上的小岛上，当我们必须修复民主的心脏并重申我们对共同价值的承诺时，我作为矿工的孙女、老师和记者的女儿，作为明尼苏达州第一位竞选参议员成功的女性，，郑重宣布我参加竞选美国总统。
我为希望自己的工作得到认可和奖励的每个人而努力。
我为希望为孩子们创造更美好世界的每位父母奔波。
我为所有想要接受良好教育的学生而奔波。
对于每个想要负担得起的处方药的老年人。
对于每个工人，农民，梦想者，建造者。
对于每个美国人
我为你们而竞选。
我向你们保证：作为你的总统，我会正视你，我会告诉你我的想法。我将专注于完成工作。这是我一生努力的方式。
无论如何，我的领导都将发自内心。
让我直言不讳：长期以来，华盛顿的领导人一直处于观望状态，而其他领导人则试图弄清楚如何应对我们不断变化的经济及其对我们生活的影响，如何应对新技术同时带来的破坏性，收入不平等，政治和地理鸿沟，气候变化以及我们世界的动荡。
暂时，让我们停止将这些困难视为前进道路上的障碍。让我们将这些障碍视为前进的必经之路。
这就是我想说的。
每天都有隐秘的力量在努力使人们更难以投票，试图用大笔钱淹没我们的声音。
现在该组织起来了。是时候闪光了。是时候恢复我们的民主了。时间到了，美国！
是时候通过宪法修正案，推翻公民联合法案（Citizen United,点击前文），并从我们的政治中驱逐黑钱。
现在该通过恢复《投票权法》来停止歧视性行动了。
是时候通过我的选举法案了，让每个18岁的年轻人自动进行投票登记。
您会看到他们向我们设置的巨大障碍和投票限制，既是障碍，又是我们的道路。
还有另一个：气候变化。
在应对气候变化方面，人民站在我们这一边。为什么？因为像你我一样，他们相信科学。
因此，在我执政的前100天，我将恢复清洁能源规则和汽油里程标准，并制定全面的立法，以投资于绿色工作和基础设施。
在我执政的第一天，我国将重新加入国际气候协定。
障碍？不，他们是我们的道路。
还有另一个挑战：进入信息技术革命时代，太多的政客陷入困境。
各位，这个问题不只是马上来了，而且是就在现在发生着。如果您还不知道hack和Slack之间的区别，那就是从信息高速公路掉队了。
作为总统我该怎么办？
当涉及到隐私时，我们需要将一些信息管理规则纳入法律。
当您的身份被盗、数据被挖掘时，高科技公司一直在告诉您，“别担心！我们支持您！”
我们的法律必须与破坏法律的人一样复杂。我们必须改善我们国家的网络安全并保证网络中立。
我们要保证到2022年实现每个美国家庭通互联网，来消除信息鸿沟，这意味着美国农村也要做到。嘿，如果冰岛能做到这一点，我们也可以在美国做到。
我们需要为今天的工人培训明天的工作，并通过提前计划来增强我们的经济。这意味着要重视教育并认可两年制学位，有更多专科学位证书。
是的，这意味着全面的移民改革。时间到了，美国！
顺便说一句，我们应该消除那些由富人和为富人设计的税收漏洞，减少债务，使工人更容易负担起托儿，住房和教育的费用。我的意思是共同繁荣。
但是，如果人们负担不起医疗保健服务，我们将无法达到目标，这意味着要实现全民医疗保健服务并降低处方药的成本。
上周，我邀请出席国情咨文的客人是妮可·史密斯·霍尔特(Nicole Smith-Holt)，她今天再次与我在一起。
妮可的儿子阿莱克(Alec)是一位来自南部郊区的26岁的餐馆经理，他已经超过能随父母一起买医疗保险的年龄。
阿莱克是糖尿病患者，在发薪日三天前，他已经无法负担胰岛素的费用。他试图节省开支。可悲的是，没有用。他去世了。这种耻辱在美国永远都不该再发生。（胰岛素只是）一种已经存在了近一个世纪的简单药物。
什么是改变的障碍？大型制药公司认为华盛顿是属于他们的。好吧，他们不拥有我。而且他们不拥有妮可。
我们正在合作通过有效的法律，从其他国家引进有竞争力的安全药物。停止大型制药公司通过向代理公司(generic companies )付款，让产品绕道市场竞争的做法。我们将借力于4300万老年人的谈判能力……这是很大的谈判能力……并废止了禁止在养老医保(Medicare)下谈判药品价格的法令。
我一直坚信在工作中不要害怕或有偏好。这就是我作为参议员的职责，也是我作为检察官的职责。这不仅意味着定罪，而且意味着保护无辜者。
这就是为什么我将始终坚持倡导刑事司法改革的原因。
这就是为什么在一个我们都重视狩猎和捕鱼以及户外活动的州，我不惧怕与包括许多枪支拥有者在内的绝大多数美国人一起挺身而出，站起来对抗枪支游说集团，推进普遍的背景调查和常识性控枪立法。时间到了，美国！
一个更安全的世界不仅仅是靠我们在国内所做的这些。即使您想将自己与世界其他地方隔离，世界其他地方也不会允许您那样做。
机遇来临之际，国际问题正在敲响我们的大门。
我们需要与我们的盟友站在一起并保持坚强。我们需要明确目标。我们必须尊重我们的前线部队，外交官和情报人员……他们每天都在那里冒着生命危险为我们服务……他们配得起比推特外交好的政策。
我们必须克服的最后一个障碍是共同前进。停止散布恐惧，停止仇恨。我们可能来自不同的地方。我们可能以不同的方式祈祷。我们可能看起来有所不同。和爱不同。但是所有人都生活在共同的梦想中。
在明尼苏达州，我们拥有全国最大的索马里人口。我们为这个社区感到骄傲。几年前，在仇恨言论盛行的时候，一个索马里裔美国人一家四口出去吃饭。有个家伙走过去，低头看着他们，说：“你们四个回家。回到你的家乡。”
小女孩抬头看着妈妈，说：“妈妈，我不想回家。你说我们今晚可以出去吃饭。我不想在家吃晚饭。”想想那个小女孩的天真。她甚至都不知道他在说什么。因为她只认识一个家。那家就是我们的状态。她只知道一个家，而那个家就是美国。
美国伟大的诗人沃尔特·惠特曼(Walt Whitman)曾经写过这些话：“我听到美国在唱歌，我听到各种各样的颂歌。”对惠特曼来说，这些是技工，木匠，泥瓦匠和制鞋匠的歌。
今天，这些颂歌仍在演唱。现在，它们也是我们姐妹兄弟的歌曲，是不同信仰，种族，信条和生活方式的合唱。
E pluribus unum. （美国国徽上的拉丁语箴言）”合众共享“，这不仅仅是座右铭。它是我们民主的北极星。这是这项努力的指南。
我想请您加入我们的竞选。这是一个来自于老百姓的团队。我背后没有政治机器。我不为金钱利益集团说话，但是我却是这样的：我有毅力(grit)。
我有家人，我有朋友，我有邻居。
我有愿意在深冬出来支持我的所有人，也有愿意花时间观看我们今天集会的人们，以及愿意站起来并说出人民重要性的所有人。
我要你不要低头也不看别的。我要你抬头。看着彼此。展望未来。让我们站起来，应对当今的挑战。
让我们越过鸿沟，穿过坚固的桥梁，到达更高的地方。
正如一位宗教领袖本周提醒我的那样，追求善良，我们必须相信，善良将占上风。我相信，您也相信。
因此，让我们作为一个不可分割的国家团结在一起，在上帝的带领下，追求美好。
谢谢您，愿上帝保佑美利坚合众国。

Here is her entire speech to launch her presidential campaign, as prepared for delivery:
"Hello everyone! Welcome to Boom Island. Where are we? We don’t let a little cold stop us, do we? Like are you guys even cold?
When I said that elected leaders should go not just where it’s comfortable, but also where it’s uncomfortable, I meant it!
John and Abigail and I want to thank our amazing and hard-working team who put this event together, the city of Minneapolis parks, and all the incredible people who are here.
My friends Sen. Tina Smith and Gov. [Tim] Walz. Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan, who is the highest ranking Native American state official in our nation. Our congressional delegation from all over the state. And thank you, mayors and commissioners and legislators.
Thank you Dudley D., who traveled with Prince for many years, Sounds of Blackness, Rabbi Zimmerman... Thank you friends from around the country, from greater Minnesota, the suburbs, and yes the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul.
We are gathered here today on the Mississippi River — America’s great river, running straight through the middle of our country, through the heartland. It takes its name from a Native American word for “The Father of Waters.”
It starts small up north. And like many of you, as a kid, I got a thrill out of saying that I had gone up to Lake Itasca and jumped clear across the Mississippi River.
It then gets wider as it flows down here to the Twin Cities, then into Wisconsin where my mom was born.
And then down to Iowa...a place where we in Minnesota like to go south for the winter. At least I do.
And then to Illinois, a state that boasts a lot of extraordinary presidents, from Abraham Lincoln to Barack Obama.
Then the river meanders down to St. Louis, where you’ll find a big arch, a gateway that honors our country’s pioneers.
Onwards to Kentucky and Memphis, Tennessee. Where Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. went one April day to join sanitation workers fighting for their dignity. Where he preached about the mountaintop and how he’d seen the Promised Land.
And then to Arkansas and Mississippi. All the way down to New Orleans where the spirit of resilience abounds.
The Mississippi River… all our rivers connect us… to one another. To our shared story.
For that is how this country was founded, with patriots who saw more that united them than divided them.
And that is how this city — the Mill City — and our country prospered, right along this river and our nation’s railways and roads, grounded in the common belief that prosperity shared leads to better lives for all. And this is how we became the world’s beacon of democracy, one in which everyone matters.
We start in this place where about a mile downriver, on a beautiful summer day, a big bridge collapsed into this river. I said on that day, that a bridge just shouldn’t fall down in the middle of America. Not one of the busiest bridges in our state. Not a bridge just a few blocks from our house that John and Abigail and I drove over nearly every day. But it happened.
And suddenly the eyes of the nation were on our state. And that day America saw in a very visceral way that everyone matters. Everyone.
They saw it in the off-duty firefighter who dove into the murky water, over and over again, looking for survivors among dozens of trucks and cars.
They saw it in the story of Paul Eickstadt, the semi-truck driver, who sacrificed his own life by veering off the road to save a school bus full of kids.
They saw it in the school staff member, Jeremy Hernandez, who rescued each and every kid on that miracle school bus as it hung precariously next to a guardrail after plummeting thirty feet.
Later, we worked across the aisle to get the federal funding and we rebuilt that I-35W bridge — in just over a year.
That’s community. That’s a shared story. That’s ordinary people doing extraordinary things.
But that sense of community is fracturing across our nation right now, worn down by the petty and vicious nature of our politics. We are all tired of the shutdowns and the showdowns, the gridlock and the grandstanding.
Today we say enough is enough.
Our nation must be governed not from chaos but from opportunity. Not by wallowing over what’s wrong, but by marching inexorably toward what’s right. That’s got to start with all of us.
My family’s story is like many of yours. On both my mom and my dad’s side, they arrived in this country with nothing but a suitcase. But they made a home here.
It was cold. (OK maybe not as cold as this).
They didn’t know anyone. But like so many immigrants, they wanted a better life for their families.
My grandpa worked 1,500 feet underground in the mines up North on the Iron Range. He never graduated from high school. He saved money in a coffee can in the basement and sent my dad to college.
My dad, whose here with us today at age 90, got a two-year degree from Vermillion Junior College, and then finished up at the University of Minnesota. He became a journalist.
As a young Associated Press reporter he called the 1960 presidential race for John F. Kennedy. He covered the 1968 conventions. He interviewed everyone from Mike Ditka to Hubert Humphrey to Ronald Reagan to Ginger Rogers. Freedom of the press wasn’t some abstract idea to dad. He embraced it. He lived it.
My mom, a proud union member, taught second grade in the suburbs until she was 70 years old. Her students, now grown, still come up to me on the street and tell me she was their favorite teacher.
So today, on an island in the middle of the mighty Mississippi, in our nation’s heartland, at a time when we must heal the heart of our democracy and renew our commitment to the common good, I stand before you as the granddaughter of an iron ore miner, the daughter of a teacher and a newspaperman, the first woman elected to the United States Senate from the state of Minnesota, to announce my candidacy for president of the United States.
I’m running for this job for every person who wants their work recognized and rewarded.
I’m running for every parent who wants a better world for their kids.
I’m running for every student who wants a good education.
For every senior who wants affordable prescription drugs.
For every worker, farmer, dreamer, builder.
For every American
I’m running for you.
And I promise you this: As your president, I will look you in the eye. I will tell you what I think. I will focus on getting things done. That’s what I’ve done my whole life.
And no matter what, I’ll lead from the heart.
Let me be blunt: for too long leaders in Washington have sat on the sidelines while others try to figure out what to do about our changing economy and its impact on our lives, what to do about the disruptive nature of new technologies, income inequality, the political and geographic divides, the changing climate, the tumult in our world.
For a moment, let’s stop seeing those obstacles as obstacles on our path. Let’s see those obstacles as our path.
This is what I mean.
There are insidious forces every day that are trying to make it harder for people to vote, trying to drown out our voices with big money.
It’s time to organize. Time to galvanize. Time to take back our democracy. It’s time, America!
Time to pass a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United and get the dark money out of our politics.
It’s time to stop discriminatory actions by restoring the Voting Rights Act.
Time to pass my bill to automatically register every young person to vote when they turn 18.
You see the obstacles they’re throwing at us with big money and limits on voting, they’re obstacles but they’re also our path.
Here’s another one: climate change.
The people are on our side when it comes to climate change. Why? Because like you and I, they believe in science.
That’s why in the first 100 days of my administration I will reinstate the clean power rules and gas mileage standards and put forth sweeping legislation to invest in green jobs and infrastructure.
And on day one, our country will rejoin the international climate agreement.
The obstacles? They are our path.
Here’s another challenge: Way too many politicians have their heads stuck in the sand when it comes to the digital revolution.
Hey guys it’s not just coming, it’s here. And if you don’t know the difference between a hack and Slack, it’s time to pull off the digital highway.
What would I do as president?
We need to put some digital rules of the road into law when it comes to privacy.
For too long the big tech companies have been telling you “Don’t worry! We’ve got your back!” while your identities are being stolen and your data is mined.
Our laws need to be as sophisticated as the people who are breaking them. We must revamp our nation’s cybersecurity and guarantee net neutrality.
And we need to end the digital divide by pledging to connect every household to the internet by 2022, and that means you rural America. Hey, if they can do it in Iceland, we can do it here.
We need to train our workers today for the jobs of tomorrow and strengthen our economy by planning ahead. That means respecting and recognizing educational certifications and two-year degrees and making it easier for people to get them.
And yes, that means comprehensive immigration reform. It’s time, America!
And by the way we should close those tax loopholes designed by and for the wealthy and bring down our debt and make it easier for workers to afford child care, housing and education. That’s what I mean by shared prosperity.
But we won’t get there if people can’t afford their health care and that means getting to universal health care and bringing down the costs of prescription drugs.
Last week my guest to the State of the Union, who is here again with me today, was Nicole Smith-Holt.
Nicole’s son Alec, a 26-year-old restaurant manager from the southern suburbs, aged off his parents’ health insurance.
Three days short of his payday, Alec, a diabetic, wasn’t able to afford his insulin. He tried rationing it to save money. Tragically it didn’t work. He died. This disgrace should never have happened in the United States of America. Not with a simple drug that’s been around for nearly a century.
The obstacle to change? The big pharma companies think they own Washington. Well they don’t own me. And they don’t own Nicole.
We are teaming up to pass meaningful legislation to bring in competitive safe drugs from other countries. To stop big pharma’s practice of paying off generic companies to keep their products off the market. We’re going to harness the negotiating power of 43 million seniors... that’s a lot of negotiating power... and lift the ban on negotiating cheaper drug prices under Medicare.
I always believe in doing my job without fear or favor. That’s what I do as a senator and that’s what I did as a prosecutor. And that means not only convicting the guilty but protecting the innocent.
That’s why I have and why I will always continue to advocate for criminal justice reform.
That’s why, in a state where we all value hunting and fishing and the great outdoors, I’m not afraid to join the vast majority of Americans, including many gun owners, to stand up to the gun lobby and put universal background checks and commonsense gun legislation into law. It’s time, America!
And a safer world is not just about what we do here at home. Even if you want to isolate yourself from the rest of the world, the rest of the world won’t let you.
International problems come banging on our door, just as opportunities come knocking.
We need to stand strong — and consistently — with our allies. We need to be clear in our purpose. We must respect our front line troops, diplomats and intelligence officers... who are out there every day risking their lives for us...they deserve better than foreign policy by tweet.
And one last obstacle which we must overcome to move forward together. Stop the fear-mongering and stop the hate. We may come from different places. We may pray in different ways. We may look different. And love different. But all live in the same country of shared dreams.
In Minnesota we have the biggest Somali population in the country. And we’re very proud of that community. A few years ago at the height of the angry rhetoric, a Somali-American family of four went out to dinner. This guy walked by, looked down at them and said “you four go home. Go home to where you came from.”
And the little girl looks up at her mom and says “Mom, I don’t want to go home. You said we could eat out tonight. I don’t want to eat dinner at home.” Think of the innocence of that little girl. She didn’t even know what he was talking about. Because she only knows one home. And that home is our state. She only knows one home, and that home, that home is the United States of America.
Walt Whitman, the great American poet, once wrote these words: “I hear America singing, the varied carols I hear.” For Whitman those were the songs of the mechanics, the carpenters, the masons and the shoemakers.
And those carols are still being sung today. They are now also the songs of our sisters and brothers, a chorus of different faiths, races, creeds and ways of life.
E pluribus unum. Out of many, one. It is more than a motto. It is the North Star of our democracy. It is the North Star of this effort.
I’m asking you to join us on this campaign. It’s a homegrown one. I don’t have a political machine. I don’t come from money. But what I do have is this: I have grit.
I have family. I have friends. I have neighbors.
I have all of you who are willing to come out in the middle of the winter, all of you who took the time to watch us today, all of you who are willing to stand up and say people matter.
I’m asking you to not look down and not look away. I’m asking you to look up. To look at each other. To look to the future before us. Let us rise to the occasion and meet the challenges of our day.
Let us cross the river of our divides and walk across our sturdy bridge to higher ground.
As one faith leader reminded me this week, to pursue the good, we must believe that good will prevail. I do believe it and so do you.
So let’s join together, as one nation, indivisible, under God, and pursue the good.
Thank you and God bless the United States of America."
