It is not just a movement to deal with an out of control, aging autocrat want to be in the White House. The mission is bigger than him. He is not the main character of our story. The main character of our story is the American people. And the job of our generation is to redeem the dream of America, the dream of our ancestors, the dream of immigrants and laborers, the dreams of former slaves and children's sharecroppers. It is up to us to redeem the dream of America. And tonight's election must be the start of just that. I'm telling you right now, America tonight is the start of our comeback, baby.
