" Honored that the New York Times

 used the closing lines 

of my remarks 

to explain this whole debate: 

'In Hawaii we are all minorities,

 and we all deserve 

the same dignity

 and respect.' "

Hawaii Rep, Chris Lee 

"A small group of thoughtful people
 could change the world. 
Indeed, it's the only thing 
that ever has." 

Margaret Mead

"You can stand tall 
without standing on someone. 
You can be a victor 
without having victims. "


 Harriet Woods

"Well you walk into a restaurant, 

Strung out from the road 

And you feel the eyes upon you 

As you're shakin' off the cold 

You pretend it doesn't bother you 

But you just want to explode 

Most times you can't hear 'em talk, 

Other times you can 

All the same old cliches, 

"Is that a woman or a man?" 

And you always seem outnumbered, 

You don't dare make a stand."

Bob Seger

Progressives

are used to being

outnumbered.

Abolition, 

Public Health & Safety,

Worker Rights,

Women's Suffrage.

People were vilified,

lives were ruined

families divided

over these issues.

But much has changed.

A tide is turning,

a humane, pragmatic tide.

The Angry Right, 

Angry Fundamentalists

and Corporate Interests

are all doing shocking stuff

for one reason:

The coming tsunami

scares them!

So stop feeling outnumbered.

Don't panic about GMO extortion.

Just keep going!

We need a new mentality

for this new day.
That does not emerge
overnight.

Stand Up Tall,

Share & Celebrate,

Include-

This is what we do,

and our outlandish dreams

become consensus 

reality!

What say YOU?
