| 00:00:00 | CITY COUNCIL. |
| 00:00:01 | I'M ALSO A DELEGATE TO THIS CONVENTION FROM THE GREAT NINTH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT OF MASSACHUSETTS. |
| 00:00:08 | TONIGHT I THANK THE CITY AND THE PEOPLE OF BOSTON FOR BEING SUCH GRACIOUS HOSTS FOR THIS CONVENTION. |
| 00:00:14 | THERE ARE LOTS OF REASONS TO LOVE BOSTON, AND I HOPE YOU'VE FOUND THAT OUT THIS WEEK. |
| 00:00:21 | WE HAVE LIVELY POLITICS, GREAT SPORTS TEAMS, VIBRANT AND DIVERSE NEIGHBORHOODS, AND SOME OF THE GREATEST AND HARDEST WORKING PEOPLE YOU'LL EVER MEET. |
| 00:00:31 | I WAS BORN IN A PUBLIC HOUSING PROJECT RIGHT HERE IN SOUTH BOSTON. |
| 00:00:35 | MY PARENTS STRUGGLED TO RAISE AND EDUCATE ME WELL. |
| 00:00:38 | I WORKED HARD AS A PROUD MEMBER OF TEAMSTERS LOCAL 25 TO MAKE MY WAY THROUGH COLLEGE AND LAW SCHOOL. |
| 00:00:48 | TODAY MY WIFE, LOREEN, AND I ARE RAISING OUR OWN CHILDREN. |
| 00:00:51 | WE BOUGHT A HOME IN THE SAME NEIGHBORHOOD WHERE WE GREW UP. |
| 00:00:55 | I AM LIVING THE AMERICAN DREAM. |
| 00:00:58 | BUT I WORRY THAT THE AMERICAN DREAM MAY NOT BE THERE FOR MY DAUGHTER, ELLA, AND MY SONS PATRICK, MICHAEL, AND JACK. |
| 00:01:06 | TODAY I WORRY ABOUT WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS FOR THEM. |
| 00:01:10 | THE AMERICAN DREAM MUST BE POSSIBLE FOR EVERYONE. |
| 00:01:13 | THIS IS THE PROMISE OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. |
| 00:01:17 | IT'S WHY I'M A DEMOCRAT AND IT'S WHY I RAN FOR PUBLIC OFFICE. |
| 00:01:22 | IT'S DEMOCRATS WHO UNDERSTAND THE REAL PROBLEMS OF AMERICAN FAMILIES AND IT'S DEMOCRATS WHO FIND THE SOLUTIONS. |
| 00:01:29 | I WANT A FUTURE WHERE WE HELP PARENTS RAISE THEIR KIDS, WHERE ALL AMERICANS GET THE EDUCATION AND TRAINING THEY NEED, WHERE OUR STREETS ARE SAFER, WHERE WE TREAT SUBSTANCE ABUSERS, WHERE WE PROTECT AND CREATE JOBS FOR WORKING MEN AND WOMEN. |
| 00:01:47 | THAT IS WHY I WANT JOHN KERRY TO BE OUR NEXT PRESIDENT. |
| 00:01:51 | I BELIEVE THAT WE CAN PUT OUR COUNTRY ON A NEW COURSE. |
| 00:01:55 | I BELIEVE WE CAN BRING CHANGE AND PROGRESS TO AMERICA. |
| 00:01:59 | I KNOW SOME PEOPLE HAVE GIVEN UP HOPE. |
| 00:02:01 | BUT WE HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO RESTORE HOPE IN 2004. |
| 00:02:06 | SOME DON'T THINK WE CAN DO IT. |
| 00:02:08 | SOME DON'T THINK THAT WE CAN KEEP THE DREAM ALIVE. |
| 00:02:12 | BUT I'LL TELL YOU, I'M A BOSTON RED SOX FAN, AND I'LL NEVER STOP BELIEVING. |
| 00:02:18 | THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR TIME AND ATTENTION. |
| 00:02:20 | GOOD LUCK, JOHN KERRY. |
| 00:02:22 | GOD BLESS YOU ALL AND GOD BLESS AMERICA! >> LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, LET ME INTRODUCE YOU TO THE FIRST AFRICAN-AMERICAN LEADER IN NEW YORK SENATE HISTORY, PLEASE WELCOME TO THE PODIUM FROM HARLEM, NEW YORK SENATE DEMOCRATIC LEADER DAVID A. |
| 00:02:53 | PATERSON. |
| 00:02:59 | >> THANK YOU. |
| 00:03:06 | AS THE FIRST BLIND |
