With Democrats Things Get Better (10/21/22)

 

 "This is my signature political presentation. It is a data filled look at American politics since the Cold War ended and a new age of globalization began. What we discover is that when Democrats have been in power, things have gotten better. With Republicans, not so much." 

- Simon Rosenberg

Year One of the Biden-Harris Administration

It's never been a good idea to bet against America. And, there's nothing we can't do if we do it together. We are stronger today than we were a year ago. Watch our new video on the first year of the Biden-Harris Administration.

In his inaugural address one year ago today, @POTUS committed to “press forward with speed and urgency, for we have much to do in this winter of peril and possibility.” In the year since, he and the @VP have made significant progress in the face of enormous challenges. pic.twitter.com/5YFbMnw3Pg

"In its stilled lucidity lurk half-readable stories: the small-fry stuff of yesterday's papers, or important events? Do they add up to some secret meaning? There is the sense of many lives, many narratives hidden beneath the common identity of Americans. This painting, this artwork, is like a great American novel. It captures in its monumental ghostly depths the intricate truths every simple facade conceals. Who are Americans? What are they like? The truth lies deeper than the stars and stripes."
