00:00Senator Harris, I'm from Kansas, which is a predominantly red state and
00:04My dad and some fellow friends in Kansas also lean conservatively
00:08Yeah, but they don't plan on voting for President Trump in the next election
00:12Why should conservatives and or moderates vote for you versus another Democratic candidate? That's a great question
00:19you know, um
00:20It's really basic. I
00:25Believe that
00:28One of the biggest challenges that we face right now is that we have had
00:33first
00:34At least a few years now powerful forces that have been trying to sow hate and division among us as a country
00:42That have been trying to get us as Americans to point fingers at each other. They've been trying to get us to turn on each other
00:49and
00:50We need to heal
00:52and we need to unify as a country and
00:55And
00:58Because that is the source of our strength, let's be clear about that. I
01:02Know I am uniquely
01:04Positioned to be able to do that and because in my core and based on every life experience I've had. I
01:12Know something to be true, which is that within the beauty of the diversity of our nation
01:19The vast majority of us have so much more in common than what separates us. I
01:25Know to be true that when the vast majority of us wake up in the middle of the night with that thought that's been weighing
01:31on us
01:32We are never thinking that thought through the lens of the party with which were registered to vote
01:37We are never thinking that thought through the lens of some
01:40simplistic demographics and polls to put us in and
01:43For the vast majority of us when we wake up thinking that thought has to do with one of just a very few things
01:48Our personal health the health of our children our parents for so many Americans
01:52Can I get a job keep a job pay the bills by the end of the month retire with dignity for our students?
01:57Can I pay off those student loans?
01:58The vast majority of us have so much more in common than what separates us
02:02And that's why my focus is on dealing with those things
02:06One of the issues that we have not discussed as an example is the issue of what we need to do to build back up
02:12our economy
02:14around things like infrastructure
02:17That's about jobs
02:19That's about dealing with the fact that America's roads and bridges are falling apart. That's about investing in the people of our country and
02:29People could care less
02:30you know this this affects people regardless of who they voted for in the last election and I could go on and on down the
02:36List about those issues that have nothing to do with the party with which you're registered to vote that need to be addressed and fixed
02:43And that's why I'm running for president
