Okay, Congress has got its head up its ass and NASA is perpetually tongue-tied. How would you sell the need to greatly expand the space program to the public? You have three reasonably short sentences and no big words -- think "sound bite". Ready, set, go. (I have my own version, which I'll put here later so as not to Heisenberg the thing.)
