Hillary: ‘We Must Stand up for Our Democracy Just as Harry [Reid] Has Done His Entire Career’

RUSH EXCERPT:
CLINTON: "As a senator, I learned a lot from Harry about how actually to get things done in this place. He is not a man of many words, but when he uses them, he always tells it as he sees it. He is never afraid to speak out, even when it's not easy or popular. Harry has fought for the simple but powerful idea that, yes, we are all created equal. He understood that all our leaders and all of our citizens alike have a responsibility to defend the rights of every single American. After the constitutional convention, it's well known Benjamin Franklin was asked what form of government the new nation would have. A republic, he replied, if you can keep it. Well, that's still our charge, and it's as urgent as it's ever been. We must stand up for our democracy just as Harry has done his entire career."
