Description"Former Vermont governor Howard Dean sought to stir the Democratic Party's traditional base of blacks, Latinos and labor unions Sunday, arguing that his campaign for the party's presidential nomination would give voice to their needs.

......."People use to say our campaign wasn't very diverse. Well, I see a lot of diversity," Dean said, raising his arms to a raucous hall filled with union members, a majority of them black and Latino. "Instead of coming to black and Latinos last, we're starting here . . . and that's because we're not afraid to be Democrats!""
