Thought you might be interested in this short commencement speech on hope I gave in 2017 at the University of West Scotland. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8eFTbsbYlEA. There is no viable politics without hope.

Thank you Ruth. We have to believe that we have the wind beneath our wings. We have to believe that we are the team that is about to break thru and win. Everyone wants associate with the winning team. That is the cloth we must don every day. That is the movement and energy we have to cultivate. We are in the home-stretch until November and we have outreach and talk everyday.
