The recent election results show that a majority of Americans do not think lower taxes for the rich results in jobs or that ending those tax cuts will harm the nation's recovery from recession.

The recent election results show that a majority of Americans believe the "Christian" values that should be supported are contained in Matthew: "For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me."

The recent election results show that a majority of Americans believe that working together, not threatening to filibuster or passing ideologically narrow legislation, is how we achieve greatness and goodness in our country.

The recent election results show that we are a pluralistic society and that the majority of us celebrate those very differences.

Now, let's work together to continue to improve our country.
