The Republican burden is their record of denial* evasion* and neglect. But our burden is togive the people a new choice* rooted in old values* a new choice that is simple* that offeopportunity* demands responsibility* gives citizens more say* provides them responsive government—all because we recognize that we are a community.

and in world-class education and skills. The responsibility agenda required something of all citizens: national service for young people in return for college aid; welfare reforms that required able-bodied parents to work but provided more support for their children; tougher child-support enforcement; more efforts by parents to keeptheir kids in school; a “reinvented” government* with less bureaucracy and more chochild care* pumillions of poor children* and to reach across the racial divide* to build a politics based on lifting up all Americans* not dividing them against one another.

In his remarkable bookWhy Americans Hate Politics* the journalist E. J. Dionne labels these as “false choices*” saying in each instance that Americans thought we shouldchoose “either/or” but “both.” I agreed* and tried to illustrate my beliefs with lines like “Family values will not feed a hungry child* but you cannot raise that hungry child very well without them. We need both.” I wound up the speech by citing the lesson I had learned in Professor Carroll Quigley’s Western Civilizwhat the new choice is all about* that is what we are here in Cleveland to do.
