I would hope that the Lgbt Community would recognize me to continuing that progress is the key to the progress weve made so far which is engagement and political engagement. And what also recognize that both the Supreme Court and elsewhere around the country we have systematically than limiting what was a limited democracy to begin with and making true selfgovernment harder and harder and would recognize if our political progress and progress on race and gender and a series of other things are intimately tied up in making this really into a self functioning democracy again i recognize that commonality is political. I would say that we need to recognize issues of race, class, sex is some are lgbt issues and we have an investment not only in cases like this one, but comprehensive Immigration Reform in access to health care. All of these are lgbt issues because people look like the rest of the country. We shouldnt get so into our silo that we forget that. Theres something about being a mi
This is 45 minutes. All right. Good morning. Good to be here with you today. I have the privilege of being with the panel here to discuss what i think is one of the defining issues of our time, and that is where are we going to set the line as a country between the government that rightfully protects us against some very serious threats, terrorism, for an attorney, and the government that has a capability to invade our privacy and potentially infringe on our liberties. The panel we have today will do a great job of exploiting those issues for you. I will introduce them in a second, but i wanted to make one other mention here.

Virgini we dealt with this issue with interracial marriage different question. The fact of the color of ones skin is a coincidence. The difference between a male and female a something that is self evident and obvious that we need to deal with. That is part of the human condition. Part of liberty is figuring out how we as humans who disagree and have the passions and a governor along ourselves. That is where we have constitutionalism, to figure out how we do this. We dont force people to live the way we want to live. I am suggesting to that the way the federal government what the federal government is doing now, rapidly because of judges, will upend every social institution in this country, and that kind of revelatory change is something the conservatives and libertarians should all be opposed to because it
It is a good morning in america. We are getting to stand in the presence of american patriots. [cheers and applause] i am reminded this morning of words that speak to the american soul. Words spoken by thomas jefferson, who said a little rebellion now and then is a good thing. Our country is in peril. Our deficit is at a record amount. Our economy, the economic recovery is stagnant. Our place in the world is weakened. So i have a simple solution. It is time for a little rebellion on the battlefield of ideas. [cheers and applause] instead of looking to washington to find the front lines of the battle, i ask you to look to the states. Where we find the laboratories of innovation. 50 different experiments in democracy are taking place. Among the states, we see two visions for america. There is the vision common in blue states where the state plays an increasing role in the lives of citizens. Taxes are on the rise, pensions are out of control, and jobs are leaving by the truckloads. Then t
