If we do the work that we can do in this country, the work that we will do when John Kerry is President, people like Christopher Reeve will get up out of that wheelchair and walk again.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
We want to galvanize people's imaginations. With enough political will and investment, we could make wheelchairs obsolete.
John Kerry believes in an America where hard work is rewarded.
We always joke that our road crew will have to wheelchair us up onstage soon because this is what we do. This is what we love to do. This is what God put us on earth to do until the day we take our last breath.
You can really do amazing things in a wheelchair. It's very dangerous if you don't know what you're doing, but you can even go up and down stairs in a wheelchair.
If we are going to do big things in our country, we're going to have to think about better ways working across our differences.
Anyone who can walk to the welfare office can walk to work.
We have the opportunity and the responsibility to lead our country to a better and brighter future, and I cannot wait to roll up my sleeves and get back to work.
If I am elected President of these United States, I will work with all my energy and soul to restore that America, to lift our eyes to a better future. That future is our destiny. That future is out there. It is waiting for us. Our children deserve it, our nation depends upon it, the peace and freedom of the world require it.
No matter how small and unimportant what we are doing may seem, if we do it well, it may soon become the step that will lead us to better things.
This President is going to lead us out of this recovery.
