Fueled - Oct. 5, 2012

ANNOUNCER: When her father lost his job, Tammy Duckworth's family lost everything and had to rely on food stamps to get by. But she waitressed her way through college with the same perseverance that fueled her recovery after her Black Hawk was shot down in Iraq. Tammy went to work for President Obama, finding jobs for veterans in a tough economy. She'll fight extremism to protect Medicare and end tax breaks for shipping jobs overseas.

DUCKWORTH: I'm Tammy Duckworth. I approve this message because a little perseverance goes a long way.
