“What happens to one of us, affects us all.”
From the movie Desert Flower, the story of Waris Dirie
I became a Democrat on July 12, 1960.
I have been a party faithful for over fifty years. I have fought to secure equal rights for minorities and women, I have helped feed and cloth needy people in ghettos, I have marched against the Vietnam War, I have advocated Democratic principles and I have supported Democratic candidates, and I have voted a straight party line since the day I was old enough to vote.
