What About The Poor??

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/arianna-huffington/ted-kennedy-and-the-missi_b_270053.html Senator Ted Kennedy was one of the last national politician to focus on the plight of those less fortunate, those struggling to survive, those homeless and hungry. When President Obama calls Kennedy the "soul of the Democratic Party" he was right on the money. But even more so, the soul of the country. The Reagan years began the focus on individual wealth and the hell with everyone else. The hope and promise that was a hallmark of the Kennedys has been replaced by hatred for government, disgust for the poor and overwhelming greed. Who will step up???
