First Lady Michelle Obama spoke at the Creative Arts Center in Pueblo, Colorado today at a campaign event where she about restoring the American values she grew up knowing.
"We’re doing this because we want all of our children to be able to go to good schools, you know? You know those schools -- the kind of schools that inspire them; the kind of schools that push them to be their best and prepare them for the jobs and careers of the future. We want that for all of our kids.
We want our parents and our grandparents to be able to retire with dignity, because after a lifetime of hard work, these folks in our lives should be able to enjoy their golden years, don’t you agree?
We’re doing this because we want to restore that basic middle-class security for our families, because we believe that in America folks shouldn’t go bankrupt because they get sick. Not here. People shouldn’t lose their homes because someone loses a job. We believe that responsibility should be rewarded and hard work should pay off. We believe that everyone should do their fair share, but they should play by the same rules.
And the truth is, these are basic American values, right? This isn’t new. These are the values that so many of us were raised with, including myself."
