Thank you - your speech is very precious to me. My parents came from Germany - my father after WWI as toddler, and my mother immediately after WWII when she married my father when she was only 17. He had been in the US Army, flying reconnaissance and then returned as a civilian to assist the US government as a translator leading up to the Nuremburg trials. They were both life-long activists because they knew how bad it could get and that even the US was not safe from the dangers of fascism. I think that many come to this country with a dream of freedom and opportunity - it is only here because it is a dream that we all share and create moment by moment.
Thank you for your courage and your eloquence. We all need the reminder that the democratic process is a verb, not a noun. It reminds those of us who never knew any other system and take our rights for granted that those rights can evaporate if we are complacent. Thank you for the reminder at this moment when it is most urgent to remember. I just received my copy of your new book today, and I look forward to reading it.
Thank you, again and again, for sharing your American story. Those of us raised from day one in America fail to appreciate TRULY know how lucky we are. My mother would remind her children, "You won the birth lottery. You're not here because you earned it, you're here because you are blessed."
We need to earn it now. We need to make sure our American story continues...and becomes better, not worse.
I received your book today and can't wait to read it.
That was an amazing speech. Your families story is definitely the American dream . My great grand mother and great grand father families came to America from Germany. They also achieved the dream
What a beautiful and thoughtful message, with a life exemplifying moral courage.

Thank you. I have just received your wonderful book. I have removed the cover jacket because I can't stand looking at the photo! On a more sober note, I am hoping that you and many other great leaders are working together to form the new leadership we desperately need! Thank you again.
Thank you for writing The Folly of Realism. I urge everyone to read it. I hope you will be able to do tons of interviews reaching wide audiences so that everyone can understand why it is so important to defend Ukraine and democracy.
