Not a great improvement. Whatever happened to that inspiring orator we first heard back in … 2004, delivering that rousing keynote address at the Democratic National Convention:
Well, I say to them tonight, there is not a liberal America and a conservative America — there is the United States of America. There is not a black America and a white America and Latino America and Asian America — there’s the United States of America.
I don’t imagine any of us is that idealistic these days.
