Quote

I grew up in Minnesota.

I grew up in a politically aware household: very civically-minded, good Minnesota liberals.

I am a Minnesotan, and not just because I root for the Vikings and the Twins. I like the Minnesota-nice sensibility. I like the liberal tradition; I like the Hubert Humphrey tradition fighting for civil rights.

I love everything Minnesota.

I grew up in Minnesota and everyone is so nice there. It is like Fargo. Everyone's so chipper and you make friends just grocery shopping. We kill each other with kindness.

I love seeing America vote, through the prism of my older working class neighborhood in Riverside, California.

I know I have an awful lot to learn from the people of Minnesota.

I grew up in Minnesota. Four generations of my father's people are buried there.

Growing up in a rural setting in Minnesota, I was raised with the outdoors and a sense of adventure.
