By T.M. Luker

FORT COLLINS, Colo-- With his wife and daughter proudly at his side, Cory Gardner speaks to an anxious crowd about his plans for Colorado’s future.The candidate in this speech reverts back to his original platform of health care, economic development and education as priorities for his time in government. “America we’re back” was the outcry of Gardner, and the crowd couldn't have been more enthusiastic. On Wednesday Nov. 2, Gardner celebrated his appointment to District 4 U.S. House of Representatives.

“Tonight is not a Democratic victory or a Republican victory, because quite frankly, both parties have failed.”

The crowd roared at this statement, and Gardner's mentioning of putting the country “back on track” to instill more jobs in the state and create more economic opportunity's for the people. Even with the stomping supporters, Gardner remained collected and calm through the excitement.

His optimism electrified the people as he spoke about future ideas and a dream for the country. Yet Gardner realized that there’s still much more to be done to fulfill his dream, and that it is necessary for a nation to remain head strong throughout the many obstacles in our past.

“Tomorrow dawns with tremendous responsibility, because our works not done. We have a sole obligation to each and every generation in this country.”

Gardner’s stance on helping the future generations in providing economic stability and jobs, created smiles among the crowd of younger supporters standing behind him clapping.

“It is resolve with liberty that we will move our great country forward.”

While working hard, Gardner also mentions to the people that he will be dedicated in taking control of the budget and reduce the spending of government.

Although Gardner gave thanks to his wife and campaign leaders, he also gave credit to his opponent Betsy Markey, who only lost her chair by 8 percent to Gardner.

In the crowded room in which his speech was given, Gardner raised his hands in victory with bursts of inflection and hard hitting headliners of reform in the House and better opportunities that everyone had a stake in. He gave a feeling of hope for the future of Colorado.

“It is up to each and everyone of us to ensure that generations from today, others will stand before you and say, it is indeed even greater than it was before.”
