9. Brutal, but needed.

I like the quote" don't forget the big picture." That's what we are here for, for all Americans, not just one's that look just like we do. People of color, the poor, the disabled, the ill, hungry, struggling millions of everyday people who want a better life for themselves and their families. It will never happen in a Republican admin., and all you have to look at is states like Kansas, or Flint, Michigan, or Ferguson, Missouri, the list goes on and on and on. This is not a sprint, its a marathon and we are all in it for the long haul.
