we have so much more that unites us than divides us.e have to stop listening to those voices who, for their own partisan, political benefit, want to emphasize our divisions and think about what unites us. for example, we're united in the belief one person, one vote. now, we're not perfect in delivering on that, but overwhelmingly we believe in that. we believe in inclusion, not perfectly so. we have our racial problems. do we ever have racial problems. but patriotism is involved with humility. you love your country, you'll die for the country, but you recognize that the country can improve, that we're not perfect. nationalism, a gospel that's being preached by many people in powerful political positions, is more about conceit and arrogance. so one wants to be careful about the difference between patriotism and nationalism. when i talk about what unites us, that's one of the things i talk about. >> but can patriotism be defined very differently by different people? for example, president trump has invoked patriotism when he talks about t

and this is exactly life -- in what unites us, the patriotism. i did not want to say anything about the trump administration and his name is not mentioned anywhere in the book. it was to have a broader discussion. to put the two words "after words" give some context and perspective to what is going on with the national leadership. that this was unconscionable. but the president did. in making this moral equivalency. and sending the proverbial check with the neo-nazis and the ku klux klan. i hope that many of the people who support the president will read the book. not because i'm trying to convince them that they are wrong about some of his policies. to understand combos and think all is need to understand, this is not normal. this is unique to this presidency. [applause] and i will give a specific example. there is historical context without taking back to sometime in the early 70s. some neo-nazis paraded in illinois. you can go back and read this in the archives. at that time the president was richard nixon. it was unthinkable that the presiden

but i know what units us far exceeds our differences. moving forward this report is going to make a big difference. i'm going to work with all of you to make sure it doesn't gather dust because the work you do today and tomorrow is the end of one chapter but the beginning of an equally important chapter, the chapter of implementation. when history looks back on your work, our work, that history records this as a moment in which democrats came together around a vision of opportunity for everyone, of empowerment for grassroots communities, of construction of a pathway not only for a victory in 2018 but long-term sustained success. that's when we are at our best. i thank you and look forward to hearing the final results. i know we have a lot of work to do today but i have a lot of optimism moving forward because this is a great group of folks who know what our north star is. north star is taking back america and making sure it works for everybody and every community. when we do that, we're at oush best. thank you, jen, thank you, larry, and

there are more things that andect us than unite us divide us. we should emphasize that. >> where do you think this disconnect comes from? >> there are so many places you could put it. who wante many people government to be professional, politics to be professional. ll guided by the simplicity of lincoln, of the people, by the people, for the people. i think it comes from over valuing those who serve as pundits, how they totally missed the last election and still haven't recovered in terms of saying, we were wrong. you can't say, hey, we didn't get this right. what is it that you did not get right? poll everyt takes a day to find out what is going on -- that is not the name of what america is. resete are today is a period. bernie sanders was hitting on the left what donald trump was hitting on the right. i saw something there. i saw people becoming disaffected on the democratic side. i saw people on the republican side not being united. i thought bush would have been the nominee. i voted for hillary clinton, but i knew that she needed relativity.

it's the connection to god that unites us, not only with god, but with each other and with creation. and it's the disconnect from god that divides us and that causes such division. to me the thing that we have lost, many of us, is that spirituality, connection to god. we revere jesus as a prophet and believe every prophet came with a particular signature, and jesus' message was particularly strong on the spiritual aspect. he taught his disciples to speak through and with the power of the holy spirit, and when we fill ourselves with this connection, the connection to god actually and spiritual practices fill us with not only this light of god unites us, it brings an intensification of love. it helps us overcome divisions. it gives us hope, because prayer itself is the embodiment of hope. and we say god is hope, love, and charity. and this is what unites us together, and it's the need to recapture that, to intensify it, to do practices together that intensify and heighten, amplify our spirituality that will enable us to enjoy our diversity, celebrate our diversity, yet have as we call o
