Remembering Wellstone

HD honors the other populist and straight-shooter, who had the cojones to speak the simple truth.

"October 25, 2003

Burlington--Howard Dean released the following statement:

"One year ago, America lost two of its most passionate voices for our country's ideals. There are very few who have served our country with such integrity as Senator Paul Wellstone and his confidante, most trusted advisor and wife Sheila.

"Paul Wellstone knew what leadership meant. He never stopped to think about what was popular; he always did what was right. He never put his career above the needs of the people. He never forgot that there were millions of Americans who have no voice to speak for them in Washington, and that representative government was about standing up for every single one of them.

"Sheila Wellstone, too, was a fighter, and her work brought attention to the plight of those Americans who suffer from mental illness, so many of whom are not able to advocate on their own behalf.

"For the sake of everything the Wellstones fought for and everyone they spoke for, let us honor their memory through our works as well as our words."
