The Divide Of Race Has Been America's Constant Curse. Each New Wave Of Immigrants Gives New Targets To Old Prejudices. Prejudice And Contempt, Cloaked In The Pretense Of Religious Or Political Conviction, Are No Different. They Have Nearly Destroyed Us In The Past. They Plague Us Still. They Fuel The Fanaticism Of Terror. They Torment The Lives Of Millions In Fractured Nations Around The World. These Obsessions Cripple Both Those Who Are Hated And, Of Course, Those Who Hate, Robbing Both Of What They Might Become.

This Remains A Very Important Opportunity For The American People To Have Their Day In Court Against Big Tobacco And Its Marketing Practices. I Urge Congress To Provide The Funding To Allow The Lawsuit To Move Forward, And Not To Shield The Tobacco Industry From The Consequences Of Its Actions.

You Should Have Disagreements With Your Leaders And Your Colleagues, But If It Becomes Immediately A Question Of Questioning People's Motives, And If Immediately You Decide That Somebody Who Sees A Whole New Situation Differently Than You Must Be A Bad Person And Somehow Twisted Inside, We Are Not Going To Get Very Far In Forming A More Perfect Union.

The Fundamental Problem You Have Anywhere Is When People Think Their Lives And The Lives Of Their Children Don't Matter, They They Are Somehow Disposable, Just Like A Paper Napkin After A Lunch At A Restaurant Or Something, If We Want Our Freedom To Be In Deed As Well As Word In America, We Have To Make People Feel That Everybody Matters Again.

I Don't Believe You Can Find Any Evidence Of The Fact That I Have Changed Government Policy Solely Because Of A Contribution.
