I am going to make it right for you. Well, many of their parents were skeptical. They didn't believe it. Politicians say a lot of things. But these young people did something very interesting. Their approach to this evolved from standing in the darkness and whispering ``I am a Dreamer,'' listening to their parents tell them ``Don't say out loud that you are undocumented''; they, of course, did exactly what their parents didn't want them to do. They started standing up and saying publicly: I am a Dreamer. I want to tell you who I am and my story. They wore T-shirts and buttons, and they rallied, and there was no question that they were going to come and tell their stories.
