Failed Conservative Values: Barack Obama on Status Quo versus Change

[courtesy of Blog for America]

 

I  have news for the forces of greed and the defenders of the status quo;
your time has come and gone. It's time for change in America.
  Bill Clinton  
 

In his Pennsylvania primary speech, Barack Obama talked about change and how the Status Quo resists change. As I interview people about what are Progressive Values and about how Conservative Values have Failed, the interviewees repeatedly talk about the conservative fear of change and the promotion of the status quo.

We start off with this exploration of the Failed Conservative Value of the Status Quo with Barack Obama's speech on change versus the status quo.

Barack Obama: I also know that real change has never been easy, and it won’t be easy this time either. The status quo in Washington will fight harder than they ever have to divide us and distract us with ads and attacks from now until November.  

But don’t ever forget that you have the power to change this country.
