00:00:00 TO THE WAY THINGS HAVE BEEN DONE.
00:00:03 AND WHO GETS TO DO THEM.
00:00:07 AND WHAT THE RULES ARE.
00:00:09 SO I FEEL THAT EITHER ONE OF US WILL MAKE HISTORY.
00:00:14 THE QUESTION THAT I HAVE BEEN POSING IS WHO CAN ACTUALLY CHANGE THE COUNTRY?
00:00:20 AND I DO BELIEVE THAT MY EXPERIENCE OVER 35 YEARS IN THE PRIVATE SECTOR AS WELL AS THE PUBLIC AND THE NOT FOR PROFIT SECTOR GIVES ME AN UNDERSTANDING AND AN INSIGHT AS TO HOW BEST TO MAKE THE CHANGES THAT WE ALL KNOW WE HAVE TO SEE.
00:00:37 YOU KNOW, WHEN I WASN'T SUCCESSFUL ABOUT GETTING UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE, I DIDN'T GIVE UP.
00:00:43 I MEAN, GOT TO WORK AND HELPED TO CREATE THE CHILDREN'S HEALTH INSURANCE PROGRAM.
00:00:48 IN OHIO 140,000 KIDS HAVE HEALTH INSURANCE AND YET THIS MORNING IN LORRAINE A MOTHER SAID SHE SPENT WITH THE INSURANCE AND EVERYTHING OVER $3 MILLION TAKING CARE OF HER DAUGHTER WHO HAD A SERIOUS ACCIDENT, AND SHE JUST LOOKED AT ME AS SO MANY MOTHERS AND FATHERS HAVE OVER SO MANY YEARS AND SAID, WILL YOU HELP US?
00:01:11 THAT'S WHAT MY PUBLIC LIFE HAS BEEN ABOUT.
00:01:14 I WANT TO HELP THE PEOPLE OF THIS COUNTRY GET THE CHANCES THEY DESERVE TO HAVE.
00:01:20 AND I WILL DO WHATEVER I CAN HERE IN OHIO AND TEXAS, RHODE ISLAND AND THE STATES TO COME MAKING THAT CASE BECAUSE I THINK WE DO NEED A FIGHTER BACK IN THE WHITE HOUSE.
00:01:31 THE WEALTHY AND THE WELL-CONNECTED HAVE HAD A PRESIDENT.
00:01:33 IT'S TIME WE HAD A PRESIDENT FOR THE MIDDLE CLASS AND WORKING PEOPLE.
00:01:36 THE PEOPLE WHO GETS UP EVERY DAY AND DO THE VERY BEST THEY CAN AND THEY DESERVE SOMEBODY WHO GETS UP IN THAT WHITE HOUSE AND GOES TO BAT FOR THEM AND THAT'S WHAT I WILL DO.
00:01:45 >> SENATOR, THANK YOU.
00:01:46 AND AS WE CLOSE THINGS OUT FROM CLEVELAND TONIGHT FOR ALL THOSE WHO MISSED ANY AND ALL OF TONIGHT'S DISCUSSION, IT'S GOING TO REAIR ON MSNBC TONIGHT AT 9:00 ON THE EAST.
