for __NUM___year __PUNCT__ we had a presid who actual share those belief __PUNCT__ and hi name wa bill_clinton __PUNCT__

and the interest_thing is __PUNCT__ when he wa first elect __PUNCT__ he ask the wealthiest american to pai a littl more so we could reduc the deficit and still make invest in thing like educ and train __PUNCT__ and scienc and research __PUNCT__

compani enjoi tax_break for ship job_oversea __PUNCT__

we should work with our commun_colleg to train anoth __NUM___million_american with the skill that busi ar look for right now __PUNCT__

and that all part of my plan for the futur __PUNCT__

that what chang is __PUNCT__

that the america that we fight for __PUNCT__

that what at stake in thi elect __PUNCT__

chang come when we live up to america legaci of innov __PUNCT__ where we make_america home to the next gener of advanc manufactur and scientif discoveri and technolog breakthrough __PUNCT__

i proud that i bet on america worker and american ingenu and the american auto_industri __PUNCT__

and todai __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__

todai __PUNCT__ there ar thousand of worker build long __PUNCT__ last batteri and solar technolog and wind_turbin all across the countri __PUNCT__ job that weren't there __NUM___year_ago __PUNCT__

but i promis you thi __PUNCT__ there is a brilliant futur for manufactur in america __PUNCT__

there is a futur for clean_energi in america __PUNCT__

and i not go to cede that futur to other countri __PUNCT__

i don't want a tax_code that reward compani for creat those job_oversea __PUNCT__ i want to reward compani that creat those job here in america __PUNCT__

i don't want a tax_code that subsid oil_compani compani_profit when thei make_monei hand over fist __PUNCT__

i want to support the energi job of tomorrow and the new technolog that will cut our oil import in half __PUNCT__ that will reduc the carbon in our atmospher __PUNCT__ that will make us less depend on foreign_oil __PUNCT__

that my plan for growth and job __PUNCT__

that the futur i see in america __PUNCT__

that worth fight for __PUNCT__

audienc member __PUNCT__

four more year __PUNCT__ four more year __PUNCT__ four more year __PUNCT__ the presid __PUNCT__

chang __PUNCT__ real chang __PUNCT__ is final turn the page on a decad of war __PUNCT__

let do some nation __PUNCT__ build right here at home __PUNCT__

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

that will not chang __PUNCT__

but it time to us some of the save from end the war in iraq and afghanistan to start pai down our debt __PUNCT__ to start rebuild america __PUNCT__

that part of be strong __PUNCT__

that part of our nation_secur __PUNCT__

right now we can put_peopl back to work all across colorado __PUNCT__ all across the countri __PUNCT__ fix road and bridg __PUNCT__ expand broadband to rural neighborhood __PUNCT__ make sure our school ar state of the art __PUNCT__

let put american back to work do the work that need to be done __PUNCT__

and let especi focu on our veteran __PUNCT__ becaus nobodi who fight for thi countri should have to fight for a job or a roof over their head when thei come home __PUNCT__

that my commit to you __PUNCT__

that part of keep america strong __PUNCT__

that what at stake in thi elect __PUNCT__

chang is a futur where we reduc our deficit in a wai that balanc and respons __PUNCT__

and i sign a trillion_dollar __PUNCT__ worth of spend_cut __PUNCT__ i intend to do more __PUNCT__

we can streamlin agenc __PUNCT__

we can get rid of program that aren't work __PUNCT__

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

becaus a budget is all about prioriti __PUNCT__

it about what valu do we care about __PUNCT__

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

i not go to allow thi nation to be plung into anoth battl over health_care_reform and kick million of peopl off of health care and weaken all the reform that we put in place __PUNCT__ includ make sure that young_peopl can stai on their parent plan till thei __NUM___year old __PUNCT__ just so insur_compani can jump_back into the driver seat __PUNCT__

and by the wai __PUNCT__ i not go to allow politician in washington to control health_care choic that women should make for themselv __PUNCT__

we not go to do that __PUNCT__

we not go backward __PUNCT__ we go forward __PUNCT__

so __PUNCT__ colorado __PUNCT__ we know what chang is __PUNCT__

we know what the futur requir __PUNCT__

we don't need a big_govern agenda or a small_govern agenda __PUNCT__ we need a middl_class agenda that reward the valu of hard_work and respons __PUNCT__

we don't need a partisan agenda __PUNCT__ we need a commonsens agenda that sai when we educ a poor child __PUNCT__ we all better off __PUNCT__ that sai when we fund the research of a young scientist __PUNCT__ her new discoveri will benefit everi american __PUNCT__

we need an agenda that recogn we don't just look out for ourselv __PUNCT__ we look out for on anoth other __PUNCT__ we look out for futur_gener __PUNCT__

we meet those oblig by work togeth __PUNCT__

that the chang we believ in __PUNCT__

that what __NUM__ wa about __PUNCT__

that what thi elect about __PUNCT__

that why i need you to vote __PUNCT__

now __PUNCT__ let me be clear __PUNCT__ achiev thi agenda will not be easi __PUNCT__

it wasn't easi over these last __NUM___year __PUNCT__ it not go to be easi the next __NUM__ year __PUNCT__

back in __NUM__ when we talk about chang __PUNCT__ i told you i wasn't just talk about chang presid __PUNCT__ i wasn't just talk about chang parti __PUNCT__

i wa talk about chang our polit __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 and politician who think compromis is a dirti word and would sai anyth to win offic and do anyth to stai in offic __PUNCT__

and as we expect __PUNCT__ the protector of the statu_quo ar a power_forc in washington __PUNCT__

and over the last __NUM___year __PUNCT__ everi time we fought to make chang __PUNCT__ thei fought_back with everyth thei got __PUNCT__

thei spent million to stop us from reform health_care and wall_street and student_loan __PUNCT__

their strategi from the start wa to engin pure gridlock in congress __PUNCT__ refus to compromis on idea that tradition both democrat and republican have support __PUNCT__

and what thei now count on is that the american_peopl will be so worn down by all the squabbl __PUNCT__ so tire of all the dysfunct __PUNCT__ that you actual reward obstruct __PUNCT__ either by vote for folk claim to bring about chang or not vote at all __PUNCT__ but either wai __PUNCT__ put_peopl back in charg who advoc the veri same polici that got us into thi mess __PUNCT__

in other word __PUNCT__ their bet is on cynic __PUNCT__

thei count on you not vote __PUNCT__

that their entir strategi __PUNCT__

but __PUNCT__ colorado __PUNCT__ my bet is on you __PUNCT__

__PUNCT__ applaus __PUNCT__ my bet on you __PUNCT__

my bet on the decenc and good_sens of the american_peopl __PUNCT__

becaus despit all the resist __PUNCT__ despit all the setback __PUNCT__ we gotten done so much __PUNCT__ and we never lost_sight of the vision that we share __PUNCT__ that you would have a voic __PUNCT__ that there would be somebodi at the tabl fight everi singl_dai for middl_class class_american __PUNCT__ for folk who ar work_hard and struggl __PUNCT__

sometim republican in congress work with me to meet our goal __PUNCT__ to cut_tax for small_busi and famili like your __PUNCT__ to open up new market for american good __PUNCT__ to final repeal __PUNCT__ don't ask __PUNCT__ don't tell __PUNCT__

we had a coupl of realli brave republican who work with us on that __PUNCT__

and sometim we had big fight __PUNCT__ like when we forc the bank to stop overcharg for student_loan __PUNCT__ which is how we made colleg more afford for million of young_peopl __PUNCT__ like when we forc wall_street to abid by the toughest rule sinc the 1930 __PUNCT__ like when we stop insur_compani from discrimin against american with preexist condit like cancer or diabet so no on in america goe bankrupt just becaus thei get sick __PUNCT__

i didn't fight those fight for ani partisan advantag __PUNCT__

i have shown my willing to work with anybodi of ani parti to move thi countri forward __PUNCT__

and if you want to break the gridlock in congress __PUNCT__ you vote for leader __PUNCT__ whether thei democrat __PUNCT__ republican __PUNCT__ or independ __PUNCT__ who feel the same wai __PUNCT__

you vote for candid like shellei __PUNCT__ you vote for candid like michael bennet and mark udal and jare poli __PUNCT__ all who have shown themselv to be will to work across parti_line to get thing done __PUNCT__ but who also know that there some core_principl you don't compromis __PUNCT__

becaus if the price of peac in washington is cut deal that will kick student off financi_aid or get rid of fund for plan_parenthood or elimin health_care for million on medicaid just to give millionair a tax_cut __PUNCT__ then that not a deal worth have __PUNCT__

that not bipartisanship __PUNCT__

that not chang __PUNCT__

that surrend to the same statu_quo that ha hurt middl_class class_famili for wai too long __PUNCT__

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

and i hope you aren't either __PUNCT__ colorado __PUNCT__
