I started off as a young lawyer working against discrimination against African-American children in schools and in the criminal justice system. I worked to make sure that kids with disabilities could get a public education, something that I care very much about.

So I have a deep devotion to making sure that an every American feels like he or she has a place in our country.

A man with a long history of racial discrimination should never run our government.
