“Tonight a below average man is going to choose between two exceptional men.
Tomorrow, one man's vote is going to make a difference...
'Cause tomorrow we're gonna have a President.
And not just someone to fill a chair in Washington.
We need someone who's bigger than their speeches.
The kind of President we learned about in school.
America needs a big thinker. You know, like a giant, really.
Someone who has the good sense to get in front of our problems.
somebody who has the wisdom to lead to us a place...
where we're at peace with ourselves and the world.
And just for the record, I want you both...
I want you both to know that I think a hella lot of you.
Tonight, I am going to speak for people I have never met...
whose letters touched me in a way I didn't think was possible.
My first question comes from... Peter Manthis, in Henderson, Kentucky.
"Dear Mr. Johnson...my wife and I have three little girls.
We both work two jobs just trying to make ends meet.
And some weeks, we don't make it."
"When you work hard and you still can't take care of your family...
you start to question yourself as a provider, as a man.
I know I am one. I fought for my country and I'm proud of it.
But it scares me to think about what would happen if one of my kids got sick.
"Can you ask the candidates, if we are richest country in the world...
how come some many of us can barely afford to live here?"”
Kevin Costner's speech at the end of the movie, “Swing Vote” 2008
