Michael J. Fox Quotes

I Saw, During The Midterm Campaign Of 2006, How Difficult It Was For Opponents Of Stem Cell Research To Run Against Hope. And So It Was In The 2008 Presidential Contest. This Was Hope In The Collective, A Definition That Should Always Apply To The Expression Of A People's Political Will. Christopher Reeve Had Believed In A Formula: Optimism + Information = Hope. In This Case, The Informing Agent Was Us. Granted, It May All Look Different In Six Months To A Year, But It Is Hard Not To Be Buoyed By The Desire For Positive Change As Articulated And Advanced By Barack Obama. It Is Okay To Hope. This Time The Aspiration Of Many Will Not Be Derided As Desperation By A Few, As It Was During The Stem Cell Debate Of '06.
By The Time You Read This Book, President Obama And The 111th Congress Will Have Established Federal Funding For Stem Cell Research. The Dam Has Broken.
Just As I'd Hoped.
