White House McGovern Day Video Script

Hello South Dakota Democrats! Debbie Wasserman Schultz here!

Thank you so much for the opportunity to join you remotely to celebrate a true South Dakota legend - George McGovern - and all that he meant to the nation and our party.

I had the honor of joining you in person for last year's celebration, so I know firsthand just how beloved he is there, but more importantly, I know how important his life and his living legacy are to the modern Democratic Party.

From to promoting world peace, to fighting world hunger, Senator McGovern was tireless in his crusade to make the world a better place, and he was never afraid lend the power of his voice to what he knew as right, even when it wasn't popular.

His life is an example that one person, working hard and holding fast to strong, principled convictions can have a dramatic and lasting impact on this world.

I know that's exactly what Jay Williams will do when you elect him to the Senate

And I know it's what Paula Hawks will do with when you send her to work with me in the House.

South Dakota Democrats - the tradition that George McGovern established, is a proud one. It's about honesty, integrity and standing for equality.

And I know that in our unified fight to expand opportunity and level the playing field for hardworking Americans, I can always count on you to uphold those values.

Thank you for all you do to elect Democrats up and down the ticket, have a wonderful night, and I hope to see you again soon!

She is going to record this here in studio on Wednesday.

Tom, is this something you have bandwidth to beef up? This is what we got from the SD Dem Party and it is admittedly crap. Dunno if Bartlett gave this to you before he left - if he did and there's an updated version I don't know about, please let me know. Thanks

Here is a sample script for the White House McGovern Day Video:
"Hello South Dakota Democrats! Debbie Wasserman Schultz here to wish you a happy McGovern Day!
Thank you for the opportunity to join you remotely at this McGovern Day celebration.
Senator George McGovern's rich legacy of progressive advocacy helped build the Democratic Party we know today.
George McGovern was always willing to take on the toughest challenges. Whether it was promoting world peace or ending hunger, George was never afraid to provide a strong voice for what he knew was right, even when it wasn't popular. His life is an example that a man or woman with principled conviction and the right ideas can make a dramatic impact on this world.
That is exactly what your candidates Jay Williams and Paula Hawks will do in their race for the US Senate and House of Representatives.
South Dakota Democrats - be proud of the tradition George McGovern established, and never be afraid to champion the values of George McGovern-honesty, integrity, equality. Those are the values of George McGovern, and those are the values of South Dakota Democrats.
Thank you and good evening from your Nation's Capitol!"
