I can't spell his name!
He's the Vito M or Kefauver of the 80s/90s/00s
How did I forget the guy my boi Mathais endorsed?
Otherwise, Ruffin is on tour in England, Harkin endorsed Simon much to the dismay of Gephardt, and Edwin Edwards was re-elected Governor of Louisiana.
Because we appreciate you all so much for reading, it’s up to you to decide what we write tonight! Which character do you want to see??
The Flowers and the Trees
December 22nd, 1987
“I’d like to look at our world from the viewpoint of self-interest.
If we want there to be fish tomorrow we must manage the catch today.
And if we want our kids to know the joy that we've known we’ve got to make sure that the Earth, with its incredible regenerative capability, can restore what we've taken.
The case for paying attention to the environment is simple.
I think Eisenhower summed it up the best when he bought a piece of land and he said “I wanted to take a piece of earth and return it to God better than I found it”.
I'm here today to talk about building a better America.
Im here to make a case for a cause that I feel very strongly about. That’s the case for a cleaner environment.
It's a case based not just on our own health and safety. Not only on the obligation we have to future generations.
It's based on the knowledge that successful economic development and environmental protection go hand in hand. And you can't have one without the other.
This summer's been full of warnings about that condition of our environment. Medical waste has washed up on our ocean beaches and our lake beaches. Our own levels and accompanying respiratory problems have been frighteningly high. And even the exceptionally hot weather, even if only symbolically, has been seen as the sign of things to come.
1987, in a sense, is the year that the Earth spoke back.
Our land, water and soil support a remarkable range of human activities, but they can only take so much.
We must remember to treat them not as a given but as a gift.
I'm an environmentalist. I always have been from my earliest days growing up and then as a congressman when I first chaired the House committee on Earth resources and population.
I always will be an environmentalist, to my last days as president and citizen of this great and beautiful country.
And that is the point that I want to make here today - that environmental protection is not inconsistent with being a businessman. Nor is it with being a conservative. In fact it's an essential part of the thinking that should guide either one one.
Today I'd like to begin to outline what I’d like to do about the environment - my plan for how we as a nation and as a people can lead the world to a new recognition of the importance of the environment.
Some say these problems are too big; that it seems possible for an individual or even a nation as great as ours to solve the problem of global warming or the loss of our assets or the deterioration of our oceans.
My response is simple:
It can be done.
And we must do it.”

I'm seeing a possible Bush vs Hart in the general election, if things work out that way.
