The overflow of big money in politics drowns out the voices of everyday people. That is part of the conundrum in this country: The more money you have the more speech you have. That leaves everyday people out of the equation.

I want people to be mad as hell. Be mad as hell and work toward something. Find an issue and find a candidate that you believe in.

Ohio suffered, like a lot of Midwestern states, under the weight of trade deals that really diminished a lot of good-paying manufacturing jobs; a lot of the blue collar workers in the state are suffering, just like many of their counterparts across the country. I'm not terribly surprised that Mr. Trump won Ohio.

The issues that matter to women also matter to communities... and these issues have a ripple effect all across the country. And the purist sense of the feminist tradition - feminism is not anti-man. It is pro-humanity.

Any Democrat worth their salt that doesn't unequivocally say Medicare-for-all is the way to go? To me, there's something wrong with them.

I am the type of person that, you know, I'm gonna get the work done. If I decide to take on a cause, take on an issue, I'm ride or die.

It is a travesty for anyone who is elected to office, who serves in an elective office, to engage in voter suppression.

Democracy is stronger, is better, is more robust when people participate. We should want to encourage that.

Global warming is a real threat to our communities, to everybody, to everything.

My mother was born into a solidly middle-class family, but, as all too many Americans understand, everything doesn't always go as planned - no matter how hard you work. She died on welfare. Without the support of the state, I shudder to think of where we would have ended up.

I was born to teenage parents who got married young and divorced early.

Everybody in the working class is important, whether you're black or white and that's what I want them to feel and know from Our Revolution.

If there is a Republican or a Libertarian or Green Party person that believes in Medicare for all, then that's our kind of person.

Ohio is my home, always. I'm a homegirl. Ohio is my home. Ohio is my first love.

The right to vote is an important guarantee by itself, but it is what those votes add up to that matters even more. These votes shape the government under which we live.

Making it harder for the most vulnerable voters to participate in the political process inevitably leads to policies and policymakers that do not represent the interests of all people.

The more Democrats try to abandon the values and policies embodied in our platform, the more we will continue to lose. We can't win by running on incrementalism.

Our country is the richest in the history of the world. We should be working to expand and improve successful programs like Medicare, and offer more to our citizens.

It is imperative that Democrats take a stand and embrace Medicare for All and other progressive policies that address the needs of millions of Americans.

It is the duty of governments to create a pro-voter environment that encourages participation, but it is also the responsibility of citizens to make their voices heard.

You have a voice, you have a vote. Use it.

If we want to be the big-tent party, if we want to be the party that is seen as the party that really stands up for the working class, we have to welcome people in and not just believe a certain way.

It is my hope that the establishment part of the Democratic Party will heed what the grass roots is saying.

As a female candidate, you always expect that some people will think you are not as capable of being an executive, or that you may be 'too emotional' for office. As an African-American woman, the bar can be even higher.
