Democracy is not what we hate the most and what we fear the most. We need to stand up.

My campaign filed the bill back in 2002 in the Democratic legislature, 85% Democratic, they could have prevented any possibility of a split vote.

I think we're at a really unique moment right now because the American people are waking up to the fact that it is a race to the bottom between these two corporate parties that are sending jobs overseas, putting downward pressure on wages, starving people out of healthcare, locking an entire generation into unpayable predatory student loan debt.

Democracy needs to start with an open Presidential debate. So come on out and let's take back the promise of our democracy.

Hillary Clinton, like Bill [Clinton], you know, they're not the solution to the crisis.

I was recruited to sort of be the doc to advocate for communities that were struggling with polluting incinerators, polluting coal plants, toxic waste sites, etc.

Democracy cannot function just on who do we fear the most, you know, or who do we hate the most; we need an affirmative agenda.
