Citizen Sheehan

"Where will the expanding majority of Americans look for a representative, a spokesperson, a voice for their anger, frustration, and distrust at being misled?

The circumstances suggest it should be a Senate or House Democratic leader...Strangely, no one in any of those categories comes to mind. Their voices are silent...Where the single greatest issue of the day, and one of the most potent issues of our time, is concerned, there is no courageous opposition.

But wait. There is someone to hold the emperor to account. ..She, unfortunately, is not a Senator. She is not a party leader. She is not in the regular establishment Rolodex of the Sunday talk producers. Yet, she holds the highest office available in a republic, that of citizen...

Remember her name. It is Cindy Sheehan."

--former U.S. Senator Gary Hart
