BREAKFAST: THE MESSAGE
(excerpt from May 11, 2007 speech)
Ladies and gentlemen, America faces a problem. Our government and those intent to govern have lost sight of our most basic needs. By grandstanding on the issues that garner the most media attention, they have forgotten that YOU get up every morning and face personal challenges that transcend the headlines.
Today, there are some 150 thousand soldiers in Iraq. Meanwhile, there are over 60 million children in United States. There are millions of mothers who have to get their kids to school. There are millions of dads who want their children to succeed.
Am I an oddball? When did it go out of fashion to care about ALL Americans. My campaign is about making life better for EVERYONE. My name is Breakfast and I represent a meal.
Listen to this:
A Harvard University/Massachusetts General Hospital study discovered that students who usually ate school breakfast had improved math grades, reduced hyperactivity, decreased absence and tardy rates, and improved psycho-social behaviors compared with children who rarely ate school breakfast.
