Favorite Quote:

We are all created equal and deserve both equal rights under the law and equal opportunities to make good lives for ourselves and families. That means that the laws should not be formulated to favor one race of people or to help the wealthy over the poor. And it means that we all should have a good education, enough food to eat, adequate health care if we get sick, and a decent place to live.

About Me:

The Progressive Revolution is a stirring reminder of, as the subtitle says, how the best in America came to be–and it is not, as conservatives would like to have you think now that we have a President Obama and a Democratic majority in the Congress, through a spirit of kumbaya and bipartisanship. Lux points out what should be obvious–that the difficult battles to make government more accessible and our rights more secure has more often than not been bloody, hard and brutally partisan.
