For six long years, America�s middle class and hardworking families have been invisible to the Bush administration. I want to build an America where no person is invisible. I will provide quality, affordable health care for every American and I will fight to protect a woman's right to choose. All of my policies--from stem cell research to climate change--will be guided by sound science. I will make America the global leader in combating global warming and significantly reduce our dependence on foreign oil. To fire up the engines of American innovation, I will redirect billions of dollars of big oil tax subsidies into investments in clean, renewable energy alternatives � wind, solar, hydrogen, ethanol, and other bio-fuels. I will grow our economy and help working families get ahead. It�s time to stop mortgaging our children's future and return this country to the fiscally responsible policies that brought us record growth in the 1990's. And it's time we had an economy in which working people see their real incomes go up � not just the financial markets. We must fix our schools so they can provide hope and opportunity for the next generation. I will end the war in Iraq and begin restoring America's standing in the world. Thank you for your consideration and for taking the time to study the issues.
