WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) -- Presidential candidate Tom Vilsack said Monday that while he's a pro-choice Democrat, members of his party need to promote life by encouraging adoption and providing programs for prenatal care and family planning.
"When you phrase it that way, you send a message to the life community that you respect but don't necessarily always agree with their position. And you begin to have a conversation about issues where there might be consensus as opposed to division," said the
Iowa governor, who was adopted.
Vilsack spoke to a group of about 100 Democrats in Florida, a critical swing state in the election.
