The Up-Side of Politics

I really want to believe that politicians are good people, and in public service for the right reasons.  I really do, and it's got to be true of some of them.

I saw a clip of this speech before Memorial Day weekend, and embarrassingly, I had no idea who it was.  I was just listening to the words, amazed by the power and authenticity of this man.  Just check out the first couple minutes, it's worth it.  It's powerful and personal, and just like that, he has my admiration.
