He knows that making the right decisions requires more than a President. It requires a majority in Congress that will also make the right decisions for America's families-a Congress that will put families first. They have been unwilling to do a Patients' Bill of Rights, a Medicare prescription benefit, reducing class size, campaign reform, and gun safety. When I was majority leader, we met with the Republican leadership almost daily-to communicate, to find consensus, to overcome our disagreements so we could actually do something. They don't communicate.
Democracy deserves better.
When we were in the majority, we made some errors. I promise you that if we win a majority we will be humble about our beliefs and listen to the beliefs of others. We will work with the Republicans to try to find consensus and bring all Americans along-together. We will lead the country to be more tolerant, more open, more inclusive. Don't believe them.
