But if the cow is purple, you'd notice it, OK? The thing that's going to decide what gets talked about, what gets done, what gets changed, what gets purchased, what gets built is, is it remarkable?

I think that a lot of times, too many liberals, progressives, lose because they're afraid to really stand up for what they believe in.
