What I was going for in the first two albums I didn't necessarily achieve. Because I was young and because it was my first time out.

And I think it takes a couple of listens to actually really get it. ↗

Throughout out history, when people have looked for new ways to solve their problems, and to uphold the principles of this nation, many times they have turned to political parties. They have often turned to the Democratic Party. ↗

We are a party of innovation. We do not reject our traditions, but we are willing to adapt to changing circumstances, when change we must. We are willing to suffer the discomfort of change in order to achieve a better future. ↗
