"What unites Oklahomans today is what has always united us: Our unshakable faith. Our love of family ..." — Brad Henry

Oklahomans value our children and our seniors. Oklahomans value traditions of faith. Oklahomans value our heroes, our veterans. Oklahomans value innovation and the creative arts.

This is not the time for partisan bickering. This is not the time for politics as usual. Some of us are Democrats. Some of us are Republicans. Some of us are Independents. Above all, we must be Oklahomans first.

The status quo is simply unacceptable.

The only thing holding us back is ourselves.
