It has one of the highest drunk driving death and teenage pregnancy rates in the nation. It was not uncommon to see children walking around with no shoes, torn clothing, and scars from untreated wounds. It is shocking that these people are so accustomed to this way of living that they cannot imagine the style in which you and I live. No one, no one in America should live in such dire conditions. Once a coal mining area, this county is now without a major industry.
Few people have jobs, unemployment is rampant, and most of the people have a very limited education.
After experiencing such poverty firsthand, I was convinced that helping these people and the millions of others who live in the same destitution is one of the main missions I hope to accomplish when I am elected to office. Until that time, I plan to dedicate myself to helping this cause in any way that I can, which includes speaking and informing others about the very desperate needs of other Americans. Ladies and gentlemen, I want this coalition of parties to be successful. I want this coalition of parties to effect changes, the same changes I will effect when I am able. Ladies and gentlemen, I want to thank you for this moment which is an honor and a memory for a lifetime.
