A progressive believes in the value of our American system and that that system belongs to the many and not the few. That system that previous leaders built a social contract, our social contract on the foundations of liberty, dignity, justice, compassion and a sense that this system is here to pull us all up. Up the ladder of education, up the ladder of decent affordable housing, up the lacdder of progress - that is a progressive. Take it back America - it's your system!
