but we also believ that for our market and for free_enterpris to succe __PUNCT__ everybodi ha to have a shot __PUNCT__

opportun ha to be open to everybodi __PUNCT__ not just some __PUNCT__

we think our countri succe when everybodi ha the chanc to get a good educ and learn new skill __PUNCT__ when we support research into new energi_sourc and medic breakthrough __PUNCT__

we believ america is stronger when everybodi can count on afford health_care __PUNCT__ when medicar and social_secur ar there for our golden year __PUNCT__ when there ar rule in place to protect our kid from toxic dump and mercuri pollut __PUNCT__ when there ar rule in place to protect_consum from unscrupul credit_card_compani or mortgag lender __PUNCT__

now __PUNCT__ for __NUM___year __PUNCT__ we had a presid who share these belief __PUNCT__ hi name wa bill_clinton __PUNCT__

hi econom_polici __PUNCT__ when he first came into offic __PUNCT__ ask the wealthiest american to pai a littl bit more so we could reduc our deficit and invest in the skill and idea of our peopl __PUNCT__

audienc member __PUNCT__

no __PUNCT__ the presid __PUNCT__

we need to keep on go becaus we got more chang to bring about __PUNCT__

so let me paint that vision of chang for you __PUNCT__

chang is a countri where everi american ha a shot at a good educ __PUNCT__

don't tell me hire more teacher won't help thi economi_grow __PUNCT__

don't tell me that student who can't afford colleg should just borrow_monei from their parent __PUNCT__

that wasn't an option for me __PUNCT__ i bet it not an option for a lot of you __PUNCT__

that why i want to cut the growth of tuition in half over the next __NUM___year __PUNCT__

that why i want to recruit __NUM__ math and scienc_teacher so our kid don't fall behind the rest of the world __PUNCT__

i want to train __NUM___million_american at our commun_colleg with the skill that busi ar look for right now __PUNCT__

that what we fight for in thi elect __PUNCT__

that what real chang is __PUNCT__

that what we fight for __PUNCT__

chang come when we live up to thi countri legaci of innov __PUNCT__

i veri proud i bet on american_worker and american ingenu and the american auto_industri __PUNCT__

but what i especi proud of is __PUNCT__ we not just build car again __PUNCT__ we build better car __PUNCT__ car that by the middl of the next decad will go twice as far on a gallon of ga __PUNCT__

but it doesn't stop at auto __PUNCT__

we innov everywher __PUNCT__

todai __PUNCT__ there ar thousand of worker build long __PUNCT__ last batteri and wind_turbin and work to figur out new sourc of fuel all across the countri __PUNCT__

and i want to make sure we not have a tax_code that subsid oil_compani compani_profit when thei alreadi make a lot of monei __PUNCT__

i want to support the new sourc of energi __PUNCT__ the job of tomorrow __PUNCT__ the technolog that will cut our oil import in half and help our nation_secur and help our environ __PUNCT__

that what chang is __PUNCT__

i don't want a tax_code that reward compani for ship job_oversea __PUNCT__ i want to reward compani that ar invest right here in milwauke __PUNCT__ invest in wisconsin __PUNCT__ invest in the next gener of manufactur __PUNCT__

that the futur i see for our countri __PUNCT__ and i know it there __PUNCT__

it readi __PUNCT__ within our grasp __PUNCT__

chang is turn the page on a decad of war so we can do some nation __PUNCT__ build here at home __PUNCT__

as long as i command in chief __PUNCT__ we will pursu our enemi with the strongest militari the world ever known __PUNCT__

but it time to us some of the save from end the iraq_war __PUNCT__ wind down the afghan_war __PUNCT__ to pai down our debt and rebuild america __PUNCT__

let put some folk to work right now rebuild road __PUNCT__ bridg __PUNCT__ make sure our school ar state of the art __PUNCT__

let lai broadband line into our rural_commun __PUNCT__

and let us our veteran __PUNCT__ let make sure thei got job __PUNCT__ becaus when you fought for our freedom __PUNCT__ you shouldn't have to fight for a job when you come home __PUNCT__

that my plan to keep us strong __PUNCT__

that my commit __PUNCT__

and that what at stake in thi elect __PUNCT__

and ye __PUNCT__ chang is a futur where we reduc our deficit __PUNCT__ but we do it in a balanc wai __PUNCT__

i sign a trillion_dollar __PUNCT__ worth of cut __PUNCT__ i am prepar to do more __PUNCT__

but if we seriou about the deficit __PUNCT__ we also got to ask the wealthiest american to go back to the tax_rate thei paid when bill_clinton wa in offic __PUNCT__

becaus budget ar about choic __PUNCT__ and if you go to reduc the deficit __PUNCT__ someth ha got to give __PUNCT__

and as long as i presid __PUNCT__ i not go to turn medicar into a voucher __PUNCT__ make our senior more vulner __PUNCT__ just to pai for anoth millionair tax_cut __PUNCT__

i not go to ask young_peopl to pai more for colleg so i get a tax_cut __PUNCT__

so we know what chang is __PUNCT__

we know what the futur requir __PUNCT__

and __PUNCT__ wisconsin __PUNCT__ we know it won't be easi __PUNCT__

the next phase of chang will not be easi __PUNCT__

back in __NUM__ i know a lot of folk __PUNCT__ thei were swept up in the excit and had the poster and __PUNCT__ but sometim mayb peopl didn't hear me when i said chang we believ in is no just chang presid __PUNCT__ it not just chang parti __PUNCT__

it chang our polit __PUNCT__

it chang the system __PUNCT__

i ran becaus the voic of the american_peopl __PUNCT__ your voic __PUNCT__ had been shut out of our democraci for wai too long __PUNCT__ by lobbyist and special_interest __PUNCT__ politician who were will to do whatev it take __PUNCT__ sai whatev it take just to keep thing the wai thei ar __PUNCT__ the protector of the statu_quo __PUNCT__

over the last __NUM___year __PUNCT__ those protector of the statu_quo in washington __PUNCT__ thei have fought us everi step of the wai __PUNCT__ spent million of dollar to stop us from reform the health_care_system __PUNCT__ spent million try to stop us from reform wall_street __PUNCT__

thei engin a strategi of gridlock in congress __PUNCT__ refus to compromis on idea that democrat and republican us to agre to in the past __PUNCT__

and the reason thei did it is becaus thei count on you to be so worn down by all the squabbl __PUNCT__ so tire of all the dysfunct __PUNCT__ that you just give up __PUNCT__ you walk awai __PUNCT__ you leav them in power __PUNCT__

audienc member __PUNCT__

no __PUNCT__ the presid __PUNCT__

in other word __PUNCT__ wisconsin __PUNCT__ their bet is on cynic __PUNCT__

thei figur thei can outlast you __PUNCT__

audienc member __PUNCT__

no __PUNCT__ the presid __PUNCT__

thei figur __PUNCT__ you know what __PUNCT__ ye __PUNCT__ these gui mai get enthusiast __PUNCT__ but over time __PUNCT__ that enthusiasm fade awai __PUNCT__ and we still here __PUNCT__

but __PUNCT__ wisconsin __PUNCT__ see __PUNCT__ my bet is on you __PUNCT__

my bet is on the good and decenc of the american_peopl __PUNCT__

and by the wai __PUNCT__ the point i make here is not partisan __PUNCT__

when the other parti ha been with me to fight for middl_class class_famili __PUNCT__ i love work with them __PUNCT__

when we cut_tax for middl_class class_famili and small_busi __PUNCT__ that wa bipartisan __PUNCT__

when we repeal __PUNCT__ don't ask __PUNCT__ don't tell __PUNCT__ there were some courag republican in the senat who vote with us __PUNCT__

that wa leadership __PUNCT__

i will work with anybodi of ani parti to move thi countri forward __PUNCT__

and if you realli want to break the gridlock in congress __PUNCT__ you vote for leader who feel the same wai __PUNCT__ whether thei democrat __PUNCT__ republican __PUNCT__ independ __PUNCT__ peopl who put you first __PUNCT__ who put the american_peopl first __PUNCT__ not the elect first or partisan advantag first or special_interest first or big __PUNCT__ monei contributor first or super_pac first __PUNCT__ but put the peopl of wisconsin first __PUNCT__

that what you should be think about __PUNCT__

but you know what __PUNCT__ there ar go to be some fight sometim __PUNCT__ becaus there ar fight that need to be had to bring about chang and push through the resist of the statu_quo __PUNCT__

if the price of peac in washington is cut deal that will kick student off of financi_aid or get rid of fund for plan_parenthood or let insur_compani go back to discrimin against peopl with preexist condit or elimin health_care for million on medicaid who ar poor or elderli or disabl __PUNCT__ that not a deal i will to take __PUNCT__

that not a price you should want your presid to pai __PUNCT__

that not bipartisanship __PUNCT__

that not chang __PUNCT__

that surrend to a statu_quo that doesn't work for middl_class class_famili __PUNCT__

and i not readi to give up on the fight __PUNCT__ i not readi to give up on the fight __PUNCT__
