4. A couple of my favorite parts of the speech:
"Democrats, America needs a fighter because this campaign is about something much bigger than celebrity politics, who's up and who's down. It's about a great moral test of our time. Twenty generations of Americans have passed this simple but profound test: Can our generation leave this country better for our children than it was when our parents gave it to us? In the best of times and the worst of times, in the middle of wars and droughts and depressions like we've never seen, they found a way to leave the country better than it was given to them. But, now, let's be honest with ourselves. We – this generation sitting here today – may be the very first generation of Americans since the founding of our republic to fail this test



"We have to fight for our future—for our America. Because when we look our children in the eye, what will we tell them? Will we be forced to say that we left this mess to them, because the challenges were just too great? Or will we be able to look at them and say that in the face of great challenges, we changed our country. We rose to the day. We fixed a broken system and made our country stronger, safer and more prosperous than ever before. This is our moment."

Remember when Democratic Candidates used to talk like this?


Edwards 08

5. I don't remember JFK...
I was three months old when he was killed.

I think what most of us born from that time on remember is the Camelot "aura"...the promise, the passion of a better world...Edwards instills this sense in me and gives me hope.

6. Very well put.
I was three when we lost JFK, in fact my first memory in life is my mother watching his funeral.
