Real Freedom Must Include Economic

I Think, Clearly, We Got To Work Closely With China To Resolve The Serious Problems We Have, And I Worry About Putin And His Military Adventurism In The Crimea And The Ukraine.

The Struggle To Create A Nation And World Of Economic And Social Justice And Environmental Sanity Is Not An Easy One. The Struggle To Try And Create A More Peaceful World Will Be Extremely Difficult. But This I Know: Despair Is Not An Option If We Care About Our Kids And Grandchildren. Giving Up Is Not An Option If We Want To Prevent Irreparable Harm To Our Planet.

In My View, It Is Not A Question Of Trump Having Won The Election, It's A Question Of Democrats Having Lost The Election. Democrats Need A Strong Progressive Agenda Which Says To The Working Class Of This Country, We Are Going The Stand And Fight For You, We're Going To Raise The Minimum Wage, Pay Equity For Women, We're Going To Rebuild The Infrastructure, And We're Going To Guarantee Health Care To All People As A Right. We're Going To Make Public Colleges And Universities Tuition-free.

What I Do Know Is That Drones Are A Modern Weapon. When Used Effectively, When Taking Out Isis Or Terrorist Leaders, That's Pretty Impressive. When Bombing Wedding Parties Of Innocent People And Killing Dozens Of Them, That Is, Needless To Say, Not Effective And Enormously Counterproductive. So Whatever The Mechanism, Whoever Is In Control Of That Policy, It Has To Be Refined So That We Are Killing The People We Want To Kill And Not Innocent Collateral Damage.

I Was Elected By The Democrats To Be Chair Of The Veterans Committee, Which I'm Very Proud Of. And Now Am The Rankings Member On The Budget Committee, Leader Of The Democrats In Opposition To The Majority Republicans.
