[Music playing] John Burris: Hi, I'm John Burris. Issues are important in a campaign because positions on issues affect people.

00:00:08.940 - 00:00:14.550

As I've travelled our state, meeting and visiting with [Music fades] hundreds of Delawareans I've found that most of

00:00:14.550 - 00:00:20.850

them wanted to talk issues, usually an issue that affects them personally. And you know, in the final analysis,

00:00:20.850 - 00:00:27.170

that's what being a United States Senator is all about. Listening and being sensitive to the people you

00:00:27.170 - 00:00:36.410

serve. As majority leader in the Delaware State Legislature, I knew that every bill we acted on or failed to act on had a real impact

00:00:36.410 - 00:00:45.230

on many of our fellow citizens. It's a lesson that I'll never forget. As you're United States Senator, you will be able to depend on me to think

00:00:45.230 - 00:00:53.920

about you every time I cast a vote. Issues are important, [Music playing] but how those issues affect people is really what counts.

00:00:53.920 - 00:01:00.150
