The Precedent to be President?
Taken from a transcript of Howard Dean on Larry King Live:
We need to get them energized, and then we need to bring new people into the process. You saw the Web site, DeanForAmerica.com. That Web site has generated over a quarter of a million people who are now supporting us. The fund-raising, you talked about the fund- raising, we raised more money than anybody else in any quarter. We did that because 93,000 people gave us money. Most have never given money to a political campaign, and the average gift was well under $100.
That’s how you beat a president who can get as many $2,000 checks as he wants, is to bring three or four million new people into the process, give them a reason to vote, and then you can beat George Bush.
How many guys in Washington have the nerve to try that? Try to reach DEMOCRATS? What a concept. Now someone needs to introduce it to Joe Lieberman and the DLC.
