Quote

Even in South Carolina, as badly as we did, and we did very badly, we won the votes of people 29 years of age or younger. The future of the Democratic Party, the future of this country is involving young people in the political process, getting them to stand up for their rights.

What does a political revolution look like? It means that 80 percent of the people vote in national elections, not 40 percent.
