On this Fourth of July, a thought to share. Our nation was born in a revolution by “We the People” & premised on a revolutionary faith: that it is the people, the everyday man and woman, who make democracy possible. They built this country, not the self-proclaimed elites

So we must confront entrenched power & force new debates. We must challenge those - big govt, Big Tech, the multinational corporations, the leadership “elite” - who have ignored & disdained the middle for too long. And we must stand up for what unites us as a nation

You are the greatest senator of all time. I say that with the same sincerity you have for actually helping the middle. You're spare parts.

"Made the nation"? You mean "slaughtered indigenous people and enslaved human beings?" Were slaves considered "the great American middle" that you speak of? Because they're the ones who "made the nation". In the middle were the overseers.

Again, start voting like you mean that. Tax breaks for corporations and the rich do not benefit the average American. Access to affordable healthcare, education, equal employment opportunities, voting rights are important too. Stop efforts to take those things away.
