I think that's the kind of politics that has lead to gridlock and an ineffective Washington.

It's an outrage.

I don't accept this future.

We need to reclaim the American dream.

America is the sum of our dreams.

I believe that Americans want to come together again behind a common purpose.

And because I wouldn't be standing on this stage today if it weren't for the dreams of those who came before me.

I support a packer ban and strict enforcement of antimonopoly laws, because when meatpackers own livestock, they can drive down prices and manipulate markets.

We need to seize opportunities in rural America to secure our energy future and save our planet.

We will reclaim the American Dream for working families across the country.

For far too long, politicians entrenched in Washington have listened to special interests while shutting out rural Americans.
