You. Thank you. All right. Thank you. Thank you. Hello New Hampshire democrats. Thank you so much. Thank you New Hampshire. Thank you. Youre making me feel right at home. Thank you. And thank you to ray buckley and the New HampshireDemocratic Party for everything youre doing. Thank you joyce craig, im with the people of manchester. My choice is joyce. And thank you New Hampshire for getting us the pathbreaking delegation of senator shot. Senator hassan, congresswoman andy kutcher,we need more like them in washington. My name is pete buttigieg, most people call me mayor and i am running forpresident. I am running for president because i think america might be running out of time. So much depends on us right now. For a new generation. Not just mine but one younger still, not even oldenough to vote. Trusting us with their lives. The 13yearold who asked me at an event with tears streaming down his face what were going to do to keep his school say fears for his life every time you sound in class. The 12yearold girl in orlando who asked me about Health Insurance not because shes a policy but, because shes got type i diabetes and she is worried about what will happen if her parents lose their coverage. Shes well. And this is what shes thinking about and the only fair answer like that is that they shouldnt be dealing with this at all. We all of us, old enough to voteshould sort that out so they dont have to. Thats what we owed to them. So theycan focus on being case. And a few years from now by the time the results, theyre going to be 100 million more guns on the streets. We will cross the point of no return on planets. And a womans right to choose wont even exist. Or, we can. Not for years from now,not 10 years from now but right now, we can ask. And its not just kids, none of us can afford to ignore the problems we have tolerated for far too long because they announce to a crisis that is destabilized our entire country. A crisis that represents the only audible answer to how and i like the current president ever got within keating distance of the oval office in the first place. That will happen unless something alreadywrong. Its been brewing for a long time. We felt that where i grew up in the socalled rust belt. Ive seen how politics everyday life relaxing the face of my city change, by the industrialization. The course of my life altered by the orders that sent me to a foreign war. Even my marriage exists just by the grace of a single vote on the United State Supreme Court and thank you for everybody who helped bring thatequality to this land. [applause] as the mayor of the city once all dying and now growing iknow what will happen when people come together. Our citys future change when we mobilize around shared values and focus on delivering realresults for real people. Pragmatic and value driven leadership. What mayors practice every day and we need a lot more of that in washington right now. Because for too long in washington we had accepted the unacceptable. And now theres a noise machine making it almost impossible to hear the alarm bellsringing in our everyday lives. Americans are looking to Prescription Drug prices and wondering how theyre going to be able to buy groceries. And the president s got us arguing over whether to buy greenland. Americans are picking up their possessions to flee a super storm and the president is picking up a sharpie to redraw weather maps. How did we get here . Politics is supposed to be about making our everyday lives better but nothingcould be further from the top of the president s list. Or come to the event, the governors. Speaking of pens,lets talk about that beetle pen. Because your legislature is doing extraordinary work. Responding to the needs of the everyday but when people need to get paid more, plain and simple, thegovernor is vetoing a minimum wage law. That is wrong. Parents want to spend more time with their kids in the governor proudly, probably vetoed apaid family leave bill , that is wrong. Good news is, voters have veto power to and you get to veto this governor and get Something Better. And its not just that the policies are all wrong. Its they are pitting us against each other, especially in washington, bringing out the worst in us. They speak of patriotism but surely patriotism lies in our defending our beliefs as well as our country, not shouting those who defend, telling them to go back where they came from. Because the flag that is on my shoulder when i stepped off that airplane that took me to afghanistan was not a republican flag, it was an american flag. Symbolizing our responsibility to speak up when our leaders do wrong, that is an act of loyalty to the republic for which it stands. They speak of freedom. Surely freedom includes the freedom to organize for good wages. You control your ownbody. Read him to choose your own spouse and freedom from racial discrimination. Thats freedom to. They speak of these values. They speak of faith and family but what faith . What family values would condone families being torn apart at the border . Surely they and family have something to do with feeding the hungry and welcoming the stranger and listening up to the least among us. Thoseare our values. [applause] so today im here to offer a clear choice and a clear message. The answer to donald trump is not playing his game or going on his show. It is a laser focused on improving every day life and doing it in the name of shared values that like the way to a betterfuture, the kind of boldnessthat will bring us together, not tear us apart. That is the way forward. We need ideas big enough to meet this moment but its not enough tothink of good policy, weve got to unify americans around the solutions or nothing will get done. Heres why myvision is medicare for all who wanted. Lets give our families a choice to walk away from the corporate plant and support Something Better but when theyre ready because i trust americans to make that right choice. And yes, healthcare means Mental Health care to and we will unify to save 1 million lives when it comes to death despair. As your president i will match the ambition of the Marshall Plan with a douglas plan for black america to attack racism in every form in this nation. Ill create 1 million paid National Service opportunities year so that everyone can have the solidarity that i got in the military without having to go to war in order to get there. We are a nation ready to serve. I will appoint women to the judiciary and the highest levels of this administration. [applause] and speaking of appointments,i will appoint a secretary of education who actually believes in public education. Its time. [applause] and while were at it, andenvironmental Protection Agency head who actually believes in Climate Change so we can unify the American People around solving that problem before it is too late. [applause] the purpose of the presidencyis not the glorification of the president , it is the unification of the people, pulling us together in common purpose to tackle our greatest challenge. Where a rising tide really does lift all boats. The once upon a time it was the case chose a were learning active shooter drills before the lord to read, but we summoned the courage to get weapons of war out of american neighborhoods. [cheers and applause] that we beat the odds god has acclimated before rudy opportunities in their lives. [applause] and delivered a society where your race has no bearing on your health or your wealth on your relationship with law enforcement. We will be so proud [applause] running for office is an act of hope that we can get this done. Not the hope of the naive but all of those who know we cant afford to go back. So New Hampshire, are you ready to spread the sense of hope required to deliver a new and Better Future . [cheers and applause] are you ready to break from that past and bring a better era to american life. [applause] are you ready to put away the reality show washington and change the channel to a new future for the American People . [cheers and applause] and with hope and our hearts and fire in our bellies can lets go forward all the way to the white house and beyond. Thank you, New Hampshire, and i will see you on the campaign trail. Thank you. [cheers and applause] thank you. Whatsapp, New Hampshire democrats . Whats up .
