If You Want To Be A Change

Higher Education Isn't Just A Personal Investment. It's A Public Good That Pays Off In A More Competitive Workforce And Better-informed And Engaged Citizens. Every Year, We Spend Nearly $100 Billion On Corporate Welfare, And More Than $500 Billion On Defense Spending. Surely Ensuring The Next Generation Can Compete In The Global Economy Is At Least As Important As Subsidies For Big Business And Military Adventures Around The Globe. In Fact, I Think We Can And Must Go Further - Not Just Making Public Higher Education Tuition-free, But Reinventing Education In America As We Know It.

I Think The Big Problem Is You Have A Vicious Cycle Of Wealth And Power In America That`s Just Gotten Completely Out Of Control And You`ve Seen It In Politics.

The World Of Politics Is Divided Between People Who Are Introverts - Who Lose A Little Bit Of Energy Out Of Each Interaction They Have So That By The Time The Day Ends, After 1,000 Interactions, They're Exhausted - And People Like Bill Clinton Who Are Extroverted - Who Get A Little Bit Of Energy From Each Interaction.

I Want A Shot For People Like Me To Grow Up And Do Something With Themselves.

We Are Born, We Grow Up, We Live Our Lives As Best We Can. If We Are Thoughtful We Are Good Parents And Good Partners. If We Are Wise We Strive For Integrity And Intimacy. If We Are Fortunate We Discover Love And Joy. If We Are Able, We Make The World A Little Better Than We Found It.
