cathy underscored what is so vitally important to all americans. she said in her race she reached out to republicans and independents who supported her in the ongoing protection of seniors by the preservation of medicare. she appealed to small businesses and need for job creation and underscored the importance of making it in america. something that resonates all across this nation and clearly with our caucus as well. there was a great exchange with our president. we left united, we left together, and we intend to pursue these goals to make it in manufacturing -- to make it in america by investing in manufacturing and preserve medicare and make sure in this discussion as cathy said, that revenues are placed on the table in terms of balancing our budget. i now yield to the vice chair, javier paer is a. >> he said failure is not an option when it comes to america pays it's bills and he made it clear that the middle class and seniors will not get stiff armed. i believe that every single democrat is ready to stand with the president to make sure that t

host: maryland, cathy, you are next. caller: i watched the debates. just cannot find myself to be enthusiastic about the republican party right now i know that once they take power in medicaid and social security, all of the things i have been working for decades to achieve, i am not too enthusiastic about the representatives that i saw last night. they were not talking about what was important to me. jobs, social security. host: republicans only this morning for another 20 minutes. jessica, what do you think of the gop field and how it is shaping up melancholic " it was a fantastic -- stand it -- shaping up? caller: it was fantastic. it is great to see a viable female candidate. i cannot wait to see michelle kaufman as the first female president. host: from the senate -- it has become a standard auto fuel additive. a potentially bigger fight is brewing in the house over subsidized vehicle conversion host: also in the senate, here is "the washington times" again. .ost: lawrenceville, ga., ed go ahead. caller: any one of these candidates would do a bet

but everything got so bad off that i told cathy we have to do something. i am no livestock judge, and but was agriculture. when you look at things, you say how are we going to get jobs back? just like it is miraculous just like you hear those pundits and they say, what is the one thing we can do to get jobs in this country? it is not just one thing to get jobs. one thing did not just cause them to leave. there is a lot of things, and you cannot make this work trying to focus and hone in on one thing. jobs we need, but there is about one -- for things that make jobs gel this country. by that, i mean they have to happen simultaneously. why is it that we need taxes in america? to run government? about the only thing, isn't it? all right, if we shrink government a little but we do not need as much taxes, do we? well, it is not hard if you get to thinking about how to shrink government to you think there would be a department or two there that just needs to go way prove me education, something like that, comes to mind. what about consolidating some agencies and
