KEY BLOCK----- I like this at first read. From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Megan Rooney Sent: Friday, August 28, 2015 8:01 AM To: Speech Drafts Subject: REVISED draft of this morning's DNC remarks Hi all -- HRC called Dan and me late last night to say that she wasn't feeling the speech, it didn't feel energized enough, she didn't want Iran in there, she didn't want to say so much on guns, she wanted to say more about the Dem legacy... etc. So Dan and I started cutting and tightening and amping up the energy (we hope). She has this how and just emailed to ask that you all see it. She speaks in less than four hours so if you have thoughts, please send 'em asap. Thanks! ** HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON REMARKS AT THE DNC SUMMER MEMBERSHIP MEETING MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA FRIDAY, AUGUST 28, 2015 Hello Democrats! Thank you, Stephanie, and thanks to all the other elected officials, party leaders and grassroots organizers. Every day, you’re helping strengthen families and communities across our nation. You’re showing why we’re so proud to be Democrats. We’re Democrats because we believe in an America where no matter who you are or where you come from, you should have an equal shot at success. That’s the America we love. That’s the America we’re fighting for. And that’s what’s at stake in this election – whether our country keeps moving toward opportunity and prosperity for all, or whether we let Republicans rip away the progress we’ve worked so hard to achieve, here at home and around the world. This election is going to be about who best understands the pressures facing our families… who has the right vision for America’s future… and who has the skill and tenacity to lead us there. That’s an election we Democrats can win every time. We’ve come a long way these past six and a half years. Thanks to the hard work and sacrifice of the American people – and the leadership of President Obama -- we’ve come back from the worst economic crisis of our lifetimes. We’re standing again, thank goodness. But I know we can do more than stand. We can run. Today families are stretched in a million directions – and so are their budgets. Costs for everything from prescription drugs to childcare to college are going up faster than wages. At a time when more women than ever are their family’s main breadwinner, too often they’re still not paid equal to men. And millions of Americans are being held back by student debt. I’ve talked with young people who work like crazy and do everything right but nonetheless are putting off starting a business, buying a house – even getting married – because of the loans hanging over their heads. That’s not how it’s supposed to be in America. In America, if you work hard and do your part, you should be able to get ahead and stay ahead. That’s the basic bargain that made this country great – and that Democrats have worked so hard over the years to strengthen and defend. That bargain is what kept my grandfather going to work in the same Scranton lace mill every day for 50 years. It’s what led my father to believe that if he saved and sacrificed, his small business printing fabric in Chicago could provide us with a middle class life. And you know what – it did. When my husband made that bargain mean something again in the 1990s, we had the longest peacetime expansion in history, a balanced budget, and the first time in decades when we all grew together – not just those at the top, everyone. When President Obama did it, we pulled back from the brink of depression, saved the auto industry, ended Wall Street abuses, and provided health care to 16 million people. The basic bargain works. If everyone does their fair share, and everyone gets a fair shot, our whole country succeeds. And that success doesn’t just go to a few people at the top – it’s widely shared. Democrats have proved that again and again. Now it’s up to us to renew that bargain for a new generation. To do what we know works – and what we know is right. We’ve got to make sure that every American gets a shot at their dreams and the chance to live up to their God-given potential. That’s what I’ll do as President. On my first trip this spring, I met a single mom who’s juggling a job and classes at community college, all while raising three children. She’s doing what she has to do to give herself and her kids a good life. And she doesn’t expect anything to come easy. But she did ask me: Is there anything we can do so it isn’t quite so hard? It’s because of people like her that I believe that raising incomes for hardworking families is the defining economic challenge of our time. I’ve made it the focus of my campaign. And it’ll be my mission every single day in the White House – that’s a promise. Now, I know that these aren’t new fights for you. They’re not new fights for me either. My first job out of law school wasn’t at a big firm – it was at the Children’s Defense Fund. A few years later, I started an organization called Arkansas Advocates for Children and Families. My whole life, I’ve worked to even the odds for people who have the odds stacked against them. That’s what we Democrats do. That’s why we’re here. It’s what keeps us working and fighting, through every up and down – because of the values we share, and the country we love. Democrats believe that Americans deserve a raise. And women deserve equal pay. We’re the ones fighting to help families afford college and make sure you can refinance your debt. Democrats understand that you can’t go to work if you can’t find childcare. We believe that you shouldn’t have to lose your paycheck or your job when you have a baby or someone in your family gets sick. We believe that everyone deserves access to quality, affordable health care. And we’re the ones standing up and saying that Obamacare is here to stay. We’ve come too far and fought too hard to let anyone try to tear it down now. We’re the ones who want to make Social Security even stronger than it already is. Who’ll fight any attempt to weaken America’s commitment to our seniors. Who believe in a pathway to citizenship for the millions of immigrants who love this country and contribute to it every single day. Democrats believe that no matter who you are or who you love, America has a place for you, and your rights are just as sacred as anyone else’s. That’s what it means to be a Democrat. Those are the values we cherish. And it’s time to stand together and defend those values – because others are doing everything they can to take our country in a very different direction. Who watched the Republican debates a few weeks ago? They might have been funny, if they weren’t so scary. Seventeen candidates, all trying to outdo each other in their ideological purity – all either oblivious to how their ideas would hurt people, or just not interested. Not one of them had a single word to say about how to make college more affordable. Not a word about equal pay for women, or paid family leave, or quality affordable preschool for our kids so they can get the best start in life. No solutions for skyrocketing prescription drug costs. No promise to end the era of mass incarceration. Almost nothing about promoting clean energy or taking on climate change. And no one standing up and saying what we all know to be true: that we need to put an end to the gun violence that plagues our communities. I want to talk about that for a minute, after the terrible events of Wednesday, with two journalists killed on live television – plus a police officer killed in Louisiana. I don’t know how you can see shooting after shooting, and not come to the conclusion that something is deeply wrong. I believe we can have common sense gun reforms that keep weapons out of the hands of criminals and the violently unstable, while respecting the rights of responsible gun owners. I know the politics are hard. I know that some would rather throw up their hands or give up the fight. But not me. I’m not going to sit by while more good people die. I’m going to take this fight on. Republicans don’t want to hear any of this. They just keep talking about cutting taxes for the super-wealthy and letting corporations write their own rules. Their flamboyant front-runner has grabbed a lot of the attention – but if you look at everyone else’s policies, they’re pretty much just Trump without the pizazz – or the hair. Mr. Trump says hateful things about immigrants – even about their babies. But how many of the others disagree with his platform? Hardly any of the contenders support a real path to citizenship. Now some are talking about going after the 14th amendment. The Party of Lincoln has become the Party of Trump. And that’s a sad day for America. Of course Mr. Trump also says vile things about women. But listen to the others. Senator Rubio brags about denying victims of rape and incest access to abortion. Governor Bush says $500 million is too much to spend on women’s health. And they all want to defund Planned Parenthood. I’d like them to tell that to the mom who caught her breast cancer early because she was able to get a screening in the eye and tell her that. Or the teenager who avoided an unintended pregnancy because she had access to contraception. Or anyone who’s been protected by an HIV test. This might be the right thing to say in a Republican primary, but it’s dead wrong in 21st-century America. Now, I know that when I talk about this, some people think: “There she goes again with the women’s issues.” Republicans say I’m playing the “gender card.” Well, if calling for equal pay and paid leave and women’s health is playing the gender card, then deal me in. If you’re anything like me, you’re not going to sit by while Republicans shame and blame women. You’re not going to stay quiet when they demonize immigrants – whether they’re Latino or Asian or anything else. You’re not going to keep silent when they say climate change isn’t real, or same-sex couples are threatening our freedom, or Obamacare is the worst law in history. We can’t let them take us backwards. So we’re going to fight. And we’re going to win. It’s no secret that we’re going up against some pretty powerful forces who will say, do, and spend whatever it takes to advance their out-of-touch, out-of-date agenda. And if our democracy pays the price, well, so be it. So we have to end the flood of secret, unaccountable money that distorts our elections and drowns out the voices of everyday Americans. We need Justices on the Supreme Court who, instead of protecting every corporation’s right to buy elections, will protect every citizen’s right to vote. And, if necessary, we will pass a constitutional amendment to undo the Supreme Court’s decision in Citizens United. That’s how important this is. Make no mistake, this isn’t going to be easy. But I’ve been fighting for families and underdogs my entire life, and I’m not going to stop now. In fact, I’m just getting warmed up. If this election is about the future, we’re going to win. So I’m here to ask for your help. The other side isn’t sitting on the sidelines and neither can we. I’m not taking a single primary voter or caucus-goer for granted. We’re building an organization in all 50 states and the territories, with hundreds of thousands of volunteers. It’ll be an organization that can help Democrats win races up and down the ticket. I’ve been around long enough to know: Every office race counts. Every school board and state house and Senate seat. Every single one. So we have to compete everywhere. I also know this: When our state parties are strong, we win. It’s that simple. And when Democrats win, America wins. I hope you will join me – because we’re building something that will last, long after next November. I want to be President to take on all the big problems that fill our screens every day, at home and around the world. But I also want to take on all quieter problems that define people’s lives. Like: How are you going to do your work if you can’t find anyone to watch the kids? What happens if you lose that job you worked so hard to find? What can you do for that loved one who’s fallen into a drug addiction, or is struggling with mental illness? All the challenges that millions of Americans deal with every day… that they talk to me about every chance they get… challenges that our leaders should care about, but that don’t get nearly enough attention. I want to be President to fight those fights, too. To fight for every American, every day. To fight for you. Let’s keep working with all our hearts toward a better future for our children and our grandchildren. Because they deserve to live in an America in which everyone has a shot at achieving their dreams – where everyone gets the chance to live up to their potential – where a father can say to his daughter, “You can be anything you want – even president of the United States.” Thank you, Democrats! God bless you. And God bless the United States of America.
