Democrats think the country works better with a strong middle class, real opportunities for poor people to work their way into it and a relentless focus on the future, with business and government working together to promote growth and broadly shared prosperity.

He is trapped with the same old self as before , only greyer and drearier. Enough to drive one to drink.
