The times when I feel not alive is when I feel stifled, when I feel like the emotion that's in me is not coming out. I'm too busy, too hectic. I'm serving my iPhone more than my spirit. Those are the times I feel bad.

They want the stabilization of the economy, education and healthcare for all, renewable energy and an environmental vision with an eye on generations to come.
