The power of this speech is immense. Watching the head of the largest union organization deliver a moving endorsement of Barak Obama to the steelworkers union brought tears to my eyes. Trumka has a lot of balls to stand up and point out the racism in the US and especially in the working class and how the right has been screwing over the average joe with our complicity.
As stu put it- this is why the right hates unions.
Let's take back America. Hells yes.

Hell yes! I love that speech. It is so refreshing to see blue collar folks stand up against racism and the elitist right.
And I like that he is pissed. People don't get pissed enough in politics these days.

Great speech indeed.
