Harry Reid: “We need to reaffirm the importance of learning American history and maintaining civic understanding.”

He has no regrets. He says he had to do it to save Obama’s presidency because of what the Republicans were doing to obstruct the president’s confirmation of judges and other legislative things.

I didn't make it in life because of my athletic prowess. I didn't make it because of my good looks. I didn't make it because I'm a genius. I made it because I worked hard.

The country is better off having a real democracy, not a fake democracy. Sixty percent is not a democracy.

But the purpose of politics that Harry Reid understood very well is to get stuff done.
