To me, what socialism means is to guarantee a basic level of dignity. It's asserting the value of saying that the America we want and the America that we are proud of is one in which all children can access a dignified education. It's one in which no person is too poor to have the medicines they need to live.

When people feel like they are being spoken directly to, I do feel like... they'll do things like turn out in an off-year, mid-year primary.

Our democracy is designed to speak truth to power.
