no more distractions
“At this moment, in this election, we can come together and say: ‘Not this time.’ This time we want to talk about the crumbling schools that are stealing the future of black children, and white children, and Asian children, and Hispanic children and Native American children.
“This time, we want to reject the cynicism that tells us that ‘these’ kids can’t learn. That ‘those’ kids who don’t look like us are somebody else’s problem. The children of America are not ‘those kids,’ they are ‘our kids’ and we will not let them fall behind in the 21st century economy.
“Not this time.”
— U.S. Presidential candidate Barack Obama, in Philadelphia, Pa. at Constitution Center, March 18, 2008
