When I was elected President nobody asked me to negotiate between Israel and Egypt. It was not even a question raised in my campaign. But I felt that one of the reasons that I was elected President was to try to bring peace to the Holy Land.
I would rather have peace in the world than be President.
But presidential approval also became a surrogate measure of national unity and patriotism.
Mothers all want their sons to grow up to be president but they don't want them to become politicians in the process.

Normal people don't just wake up in the morning and say I think it'd be a good idea to run for president of the United States.

President Obama has outsourced a major portion of the U.S. space program to the Russians. That's national policy. Taxpayer money.

You got to have a courageous president to stand up and says listen if - if you send a bill to me that spends more money than what we've coming in I'll veto it. I mean I'm going to try to work with you the best I can but I'm going to veto it.

I'm so proud to represent the people of South Florida. I was so honored when President Obama asked me to serve as chair of the Democratic Party. But there's one job I'm even more proud of and that's being a mom to my three kids Rebecca Jake and Shelby.
This is the place where anybody - like an African American kid raised by a single mom - can be president.
I was worried about my mom more than I was worried about the president. And then I was worried about the president and then I was worried about myself.
President Obama's fight for rural America is personal. He was raised by a single mom and grandparents from Kansas. He hails from a farming state Illinois.
As far as the men who are running for president are concerned they aren't even people I would date.
We must make it clear that a platform of 'I hate gay men and women' is not a way to become president of the United States.
