    Remarks as Prepared for Delivery

Hi. I grew up inCleveland, Ohio. My dad was an immigrant cab driver, and my mom worked in a department store. They worked hard and built a good life for their children. They showed us the importance of being good citizens. They also taught us that no place in the world offered more opportunity than America.

I stand before you as a woman who has seen how this opportunity can lift people up. And when I see Barack Obama and Joe Biden, I see the same decency and values that my hard-working parents taught me.

I see the wonderful promise of America, and I see the opportunity of a lifetime to bring about the change we need.

I'm a Democrat because I believe in the power of opportunity.

Barack Obama and Joe Biden will fight, so that all Americans can pursue their dreams. And that's change we can all believe in.
