“Now, if you’re going to be born on the planet earth, the United States of America -if you’re looking to get out of poverty- is not going to be the top country if you’re going to be born poor to get out,” said Booker.
“That’s actually an assault on the very idea of the American Dream. We need to be the party of reclaiming the Dream,” he added.
