As a result of rising costs on everything from health care to gasoline, more and more Americans can't afford to put food on the table.

To help address this, we need to stand up to the special interests, bring Republicans and Democrats together, and pass the Farm Bill immediately.

It is now our moment to keep that promise - the promise of America - alive in the 21st century.

I am running for President of the United States because I want to give every American child the same chances that I had.

I want to lead a new era of mutual responsibility in education.

There is no reason we can't and shouldn't replicate this all across America.

I know that if we bring early education programs to these communities; if we stop waiting until high-school to address the drop-out rate and start in earlier grades; if we bring in new, qualified teachers; if we expand college outreach…

I have presented a smart, progressive and ambitious agenda to provide every child in America with a truly excellent education.

We are honored to have the support of such a dedicated leader in the community.

We are not a ‘these kids' nation.

We are not a 'these kids' nation.

Every child deserves what the wisest parents want for their own youngsters.
