Fighting Oligarchy in Tulsa, Oklahoma (Program at 7PM ET)
From the transcript ...
"do not want let me let me just say this that in the
2:13:51
midst of all of what is going on what is enormously important is that we
2:13:59
do not give up on a vision of where this
2:14:05
country must go
2:14:13
what the establishment what the establishment wants you to
2:14:18
believe is that you have no power that you can't
2:14:25
accomplish anything they have it all nothing you could do
2:14:31
and in this moment in American history what we have got to do in Vermont and
2:14:36
Oklahoma in Texas all over this country is stand up and fight back and tell them
2:14:42

rational health care system is not to make hundreds of billions for the drug
2:16:20
companies and the insurance companies it's to provide quality care to all
....
2:18:57
none of us have the privilege of hiding under the covers the stakes are just too
2:19:05
high and I would like to remind all of you short history lesson that throughout
2:19:12
the history of this country what we have always seen is that real change
2:19:17
fundamental change never takes place from the top on down it is always from
