not to become the more compassionate Republicans he warned us about... Time to use the full employment laws that are on the books and get this country working again... We can't just talk about segments here or there that show improvement we need the full force of the full employment act... Our children are hungry... There can be no convention speech more powerful than one that says our children deserve nutritious meals every day three times a day, seven days a week -all year long.... Our children deserve teachers who get paid.... Our children deserve parents that are fully employed....
