I like that she's pointing out China's investment as a percent of GDP compared to the US. Hope that doesn't go over the head of most voters.

Imo: I think that ad could be played in every last congressional district. It's about time that someone from our party started asking "Why aren't we going to work?" it piggy backs the worst congress in history theme.

But such spending would help Obama so the GOP stands in the way. Are you going to reward them, America, or punish them for hurting you?

I'd like to see that message at some point in the race at the national level.

Meantime, let's seal that Warren for Keynoter deal.

Interstate and Intrastate mass transit. Repairing the old one-person-one-car road/bridge system makes no sense in a world at or in a climate tipping point.

Citizens United. I'd like to read the full text of any such proposed amendment. If there's any threads here about it, I'd appreciate a link.
