I've been listening to the Faulkner Dean Remix again lately, one part in particular always reminds me why I am involved in NCDFA. Howard's words still ring just as true today as they did back in the DFA 1.0 days.
"Stand up for America!
We seek to build a community of millions and strengthen the voice of our people.
And like the founders of the Republic we seek change,
And I ask all Americans regardless of party to meet with me across this nation.
To come together in common cause to forge a new American century.
Help us in the quest for a return to greatness
And return high moral purpose to the Untied States of America."
"The truth is, that the future of our country lies in your hands not mine.
YOU have the power to reclaim our nation's destiny!
YOU have the power to rid Washington of the politics of money!
YOU have the power to make right just as important as might!
YOU have the power to give America a reason to vote again!
YOU have the power to restore our nation to fiscal sanity and bring jobs back to our people!
YOU have the power to take back the Democratic Party!
YOU have the power to take our country back!"

I still have a Dean for America DVD the campaign sent me for the December 2003 MeetUp, that has a couple of his speeches.
