The American Promise

"I’ve got news for you, John McCain. We all put our country first."

"John McCain doesn't get it.

"For over two decades, he's subscribed to that old, discredited Republican philosophy – give more and more to those with the most and hope that prosperity trickles down to everyone else. In Washington, they call this the Ownership Society, but what it really means is – you're on your own. Out of work? Tough luck. No health care? The market will fix it. Born into poverty? Pull yourself up by your own bootstraps – even if you don't have boots. You're on your own.

"Well it's time for them to own their failure. It's time for us to change America."
