When people feel like they are being spoken directly to, I do feel like... they'll do things like turn out in an off-year, mid-year primary.

Healthcare as a human right, it means that every child, no matter where you are born, should have access to a college or trade-school education if they so choose it, and I think no person should be homeless if we can have public structures and public policy to allow for people to have homes and food and lead a dignified life in the United States.

I know what it's like to access the privilege of a ZIP Code but also be born in one that could have destined me to something else.
