DEMOCRATIC PRINCIPLES



"Art is not propaganda.  It is truth." 
 
John F. Kennedy, 1960







“Pain has always resulted in significant gain in this great country of ours. The Irish poet Seamus Heaney captured what lives in the heart of the vast majority of Americans – 'History says don’t hope on this side of the grave; but, then, once in a lifetime the longed-for tidal wave of justice can rise up, and hope and history rhyme.' It always rises up in the face of big challenges. We have a chance, and you have the means to help this country make hope and history rhyme." Vice-President Joseph Biden. Speech at Syracuse University, College of Law, Commencement Address, May 21, 2006
