Sane priorities will only increase our economic good; it's not bad business to love each other

Not enough to just resist a politics of fear; we need to articulate a politics of love. Conscience not $ should be our political bottom line

Economic despair is the same, whether in 1930 or in 2017. So is callousness towards it

I champion the free market and have been blessed by it. But it doesn't run my life, nor should it run the country.

Any government that idolizes an unfettered free-market, unregulated by concerns of conscience or social justice, is essentially undemocratic

When a president abuses his power, yes that is an abuse of the country.

To the extent to which a nation's policies are devoid of conscience, its behavior is sociopathic. This isn't a symbol; it is a danger.

Allowing Internet providers to sell personal information is federal gov't overreach, as is a Muslim ban.

That is like saying that if a woman loves her husband, she will even allow him to abuse her. That is not love.
