Fighting For All The People
Let me tell you one thing I know about the job of president, Alexis.

It's the only job in the Constitution that is charged with the responsibility of fighting for all the people, even those who may be too young to vote. If I am entrusted with the presidency, I will fight for you.

One problem that keeps many people shut out of the political process, is the often corrupting influence of big money and powerful interests. It's not going to be easy to break the grip of the special interests, but I will use the full reach of the bully pulpit to press the case for campaign finance reform legislation that will take government away from the special interests and give it back to the people.

I will identify by name the special interests blocking the way, the money they are giving, and the officials who are doing their bidding. I will listen to grassroots activists, support their mobilization, and build with them a powerful national coalition for reform. I will make it clear to every special-interest apologist that I will not give up or back down, until we have freed our government from the grip of special interest money and power.

I want to say to you, and to all young people, that this is your time to make new the life of our world. No matter what your age, we need your help to rekindle the spirit of America. Let us set out together on a new journey to the best America.

Of course, we have our problems, but the United States of America is the best country ever created, and still as ever, the hope of humankind. We're all imperfect, but as Americans we all share in the privilege and challenge of building a more perfect union.

The presidency is a day-by-day fight for people. If I am entrusted with the presidency, I will work for you every day, and I will never let you down.
