Let me be clear: To me, this may not be the most important issue to most of my constituents. I know that. I realize that. Jobs are more important. The economy is more important. But America has always been and, I think, always should be more than just about business. It has to be about morality and ethics as well. In this case, the morality of a genocide, or the immorality of a genocide--the immorality of keeping people enslaved, literally enslaved at a recent point in the history of Sudan--is something that, I think, only America is qualified to stand up and scream about.
