A Steelworker, A Pipefitter, A Welder, A Ditch Digger...

God could have created any one of these individuals; however we ALL contribute something to the good of our nation...

We did this TOGETHER.

It's an argument I've been using for years.

Republican talking point: If you work hard, you'll get rich.

My argument, and this ad, provide the appropriate response. Few people work harder than the American farmer. Know any rich ones?
