QUOTE: "There's two ways that I would suggest that we get more jobs in this country. I do like building, and government building like they did during Roosevelt's time to stimulate the economy. Everybody's heard about our roads that are cracking, our bridges that are falling down, and I do believe that government can play a role here."
GPB has invited the other Democratic primary candidate, Lesli Messinger, for an interview.
