Anyone Who Supported Bernie Sanders Who Thinks We Should Raise The Minimum Wage, Who Thinks That We Should Have Universal Health Care Coverage, Who Thinks That The Wealthy Have Not Paid Their Fair Share, And I Could Go On And On, Would Certainly Not Find That Donald Trump's Views Are In Line With Theirs.

I'm The Granddaughter Of A Factory Worker From Scranton, Pennsylvania. He Went To Work In The Same Lace Mill Every Day For 50 Years. He Believed He Passed It Down To My Dad, Who Passed It Down To Me, That If He Did What He Was Supposed To Do, He'd Have A Good Life And His Kids Would Have An Even Better Life. That Is The American Dream. That Is What We Believe In, That's What We've Got To Keep Going Generation After Generation.

I Suppose I Could Have Stayed Home And Baked Cookies And Had Teas, But What I Decided To Do Was To Fulfill My Profession, Which I Entered Before My Husband Was In Public Life

I'm Not Making Excuses For The Missed Opportunities Of The Israelis, Or The Lack Of Generosity, The Lack Of Empathy That I Think Goes Hand-in-hand With The Suspicion.

Win Or Lose, People Know What You Want To Do.

When I Think About Capitalism, I Think About All The Small Businesses That Were Started Because We Have The Opportunity And The Freedom In America For People To Do That And To Make A Good Living For Themselves And Their Families. And I Don't Think We Should Confuse What We Have To Do Every So Often In America, Which Is Save Capitalism From Itself.

I Don't Have Any Comment On Who The People Of Russia Choose To Be Their Leaders.

We Used To Say In The White House That If A Place Is Too Dangerous, Too Small Or Too Poor, Send The First Lady.

We Need More Good Jobs, And That Means We've Got To Start Educating Young People, Starting Literally In The First Five Years Of Life Making Sure That Every Kid In Every Zip Code Has Good Teachers And Good Schools, Making College Affordable, Helping People Pay Down Their Debt.

If I'm Not Mistaken, That Relationship [of Barack Obama] With Mr.[bill] Ayers On This Board Continued After 9/11 And After His Reported Comments, Which Were Deeply Hurtful To People In New York And, I Would Hope, To Every American, Because They Were Published On 9/11, And He Said That He Was Just Sorry They Hadn't Done More.

Let's Stop For A Second And Remember Where We Were Eight Years Ago [in 2008]. We Had The Worst Financial Crisis, The Great Recession, The Worst Since The 1930s. That Was In Large Part Because Of Tax Policies That Slashed Taxes On The Wealthy, Failed To Invest In The Middle Class, Took Their Eyes Off Of Wall Street, And Created A Perfect Storm.

We Need To Have Strong Growth, Fair Growth, Sustained Growth.

Donald Trump Praised Russia's Strong Man, Vladimir Putin, Even Taking The Astonishing Step Of Suggesting That He Prefers The Russian President To Our American President. I Was Just Thinking About All Of The Presidents That Would Just Be Looking At One Another In Total Astonishment. What Would Ronald Reagan Say About A Republican Nominee Who Attacks America's Generals And Heaps Praise On Russia's President? I Think We Know The Answer.

I Think You Have To Take The Man And Say To Yourself, [donald Trump] Is Someone Who Wants To Occupy The Oval Office, Where Franklin Roosevelt, Teddy Roosevelt, Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, And People Who Were Our President, And I Don't Think It's Just A Woman's Issue. I Think It's An Issue That Should Be Of Concern To All Americans.

I'm Really Lucky To Have The Kind Of People I've Got Around Me. I've Got Such A Great Group Of Predominantly Young People, But So Diverse, And They Bring Different Perspectives To The Table. They Will Tell Me Exactly What's On Their Mind.

I Keep Telling People I Want To Close The Deficit, And One Of The Deficits Is Want To Close Is The Fun Deficit.

Frankly, I See A Lot Of Little Girls Dressed In Ways I Think Are Not Very Appropriate. It's Too Much Too Soon, And It Causes A Lot Of Cognitive Dissonance About Who They Are - Are They An 8-year-old, Or Are They A Miniature Fill-in-the-blank-celebrity? Parents Have To Draw The Line.

We Should Remember That Just As A Positive Outlook On Life Can Promote Good Health, So Can Everyday Acts Of Kindness.

I Always Supported The Women I Worked With Having Time Off To Go To Parent-teacher Conferences And Doctors' Appointments Or Bringing Their Infants Into The Office. I'm A Huge Supporter Of On-site Child Care. You Need Much More Sensitivity In The Workplace To The Challenges Young Women Go Through In Trying To Do Two Very Difficult Jobs Well.

You Know, We Did A Good Job In Containing The Soviet Union, But We Made A Lot Of Mistakes, We Supported Really Nasty Guys, We Did Some Things That We Are Not Particularly Proud Of, From Latin America To Southeast Asia, But We Did Have A Kind Of Overarching Framework About What We Were Trying To Do That Did Lead To The Defeat Of The Soviet Union And The Collapse Of Communism. That Was Our Objective. We Achieved It.

New York Has Done An Excellent Job. And I Give Credit - I Give Credit Across The Board Going Back Two Mayors, Two Police Chiefs, Because It Has Worked. And Other Communities Need To Come Together To Do What Will Work, As Well.

Never Stop Believing That Fighting For What Is Right Is Worth It.

Never Stop Believing

Donald Trump Would Send Us Back Into Recession With His Tax Plans That Benefit The Wealthiest Of Americans.

We All Remember Bobby Kennedy Was Assassinated In June In California.

We Do Not Have To Choose Between A Healthy Environment And A Healthy Economy.

Donald Trump Participated In Something Known As The Empty Box Scam. He Bought $65,000 Worth Of Jewelry From Bulgari Across The Street From Trump Tower, And Had The Record Show That It Was Mailed To Him In An Out-of-state Address. Now, If You're Not A New York Resident, You May Not Have To Pay Sales Tax If The Jewelry Is Mailed To You In Another State. The Problem Is, They Were Empty Boxes. It Was Proven.

When Women Participate In Politics, The Effects Ripple Out Across Society... Women Are The World's Most Underused Resource.

Being Gay Is Not A Western Invention. It Is A Human Reality.

I Can't Stand Whining.

Donald Trump Represents The Same Rigged System That He Claims He's Going To Change.

When I Think About What We Need To Do, We Have 33,000 People A Year Who Die From Guns. I Think We Need Comprehensive Background Checks, Need To Close The Online Loophole, Close The Gun Show Loophole. There's Other Matters That I Think Are Sensible That Are The Kind Of Reforms That Would Make A Difference That Are Not In Any Way Conflicting With The Second Amendment.

I Think My Husband Did A Pretty Good Job In The 1990s. I Think A Lot About What Worked And How We Can Make It Work Again, Million New Jobs, A Balanced Budget.

We Celebrate Our Diversity, We Lift People Up, And We Make America Even Greater.

I Believe In Delegating Power.

When I Was A Senator From New York, I Represented And Worked With So Many Talented Principled People Who Made Their Living In Finance. But Even Thought I Represented Them And Did All I Could To Make Sure They Continued To Prosper, I Called For Closing The Carried Interest Loophole And Addressing Skyrocketing Ceo Pay. I Also Was Calling In '06, '07 For Doing Something About The Mortgage Crisis, Because I Saw Every Day From Wall Street Literally To Main Streets Across New York How A Well-functioning Financial System Is Essential.

Unfortunately, Dozens Of Toddlers Injure Themselves, Even Kill People With Guns, Because, Unfortunately, Not Everyone Who Has Loaded Guns In Their Homes Takes Appropriate Precautions.

Everybody Has Some Dysfunction In Their Families.

When I Think About What We Now Know About Donald Trump And What He's Been Doing For 30 Years, He Sure Has Spent A Lot Of Time Demeaning, Degrading, Insulting, And Assaulting Women.

I Think When Somebody's Out In The Public Eye, That's What They Do. So I'm Fully Comfortable With Who I Am, What I Stand For, And What I've Always Stood For.

When I Was In The Senate, I Had Eight Great Years Working With The Community On Major Issues, Trying To Deal With Problems That People Brought To My Attention. That's Certainly What I Intend To Do As President. I Think That Is What President Obama Has Done.

The Gun Lobby Whips Up People And Makes Them Believe That President Obama Or I Are Coming For Their Guns. Well, That's Ridiculous. And He's Said It, I Have Said It. But We Do Want To Save Lives By Keeping A Gun From Somebody Who Shouldn't Have It.

We Are At A Stage In History In Which Remolding Society Is One Of The Great Challenges Facing All Of Us In The West.

I Want To Go After The Pharmaceutical Companies Like Valeant, And Turns That Are Increasing Prices Without Any Regard To The Impact On People's Health.

I Saw Donald [trump] Saying That There Were Some Iranian Sailors On A Ship In The Waters Off Of Iran, And They Were Taunting American Sailors Who Were On A Nearby Ship. He Said, You Know, If They Taunted Our Sailors, I'd Blow Them Out Of The Water And Start Another War. That's Not Good Judgment.

We Believe Strongly That The Road To Peace And Two States Living Side By Side Does Not Go Through New York, It Goes Through Jerusalem And Ramallah.

The Truth Is That Sometimes It Is Hard Even For Me To Recognize The Hillary Clinton That Other People See.

As A Young Lawyer, I Learned To Try To Find Common Ground With People, To Look For A Human Connection. When I Got To The Senate, Despite The Fact That There Were A Lot Of People Who Didn't Want Me To Get There - And Were Sure They'd Never Even Talk To Me, Let Alone Work With Me - I Really Tried To Do The Job I Was Sent There To Do By The People Of New York, Which Was To Get Things Done For My Constituents. I Worked With Republicans, And We Found A Lot Of Common Ground. It Isn't Easy, But It's Part Of What We Have To Do In Politics Today.

As A Senator, I Raised The Alarm About Sub Prime Mortgages. I Fought To Hold Reckless Manufacturers Accountable For Toxic Toys And Household Products That Threaten Our Kids. I Introduced Legislation To Protect Americans' Personal Data And Combat Identity Theft. So As President, I Will Make Consumer Protection A Top Priority Across The Entire Government.

We Must Realize That Our Destiny Is Strongly Linked To The Destiny Of The Poorest On This Planet.

We Got An International Coalition [against Iran], And We Imposed That. It Was Slow, Patient Diplomacy, Nothing At All Particularly Headline-worthy. But Then You Got To The Point Where The Negotiations - Which I Started And Secretary [john] Kerry Completed - I Think Made The World Safer.

Laws And Traditions That Hold Back Women, Hold Back Entire Societies.

Freedom Means The Right Of People To Assemble, Organize, And Debate Openly.

You're Not A Leader If You Haven't Been Elected.

Donald Trump Says He Knows More About Isis Than The Generals. No, He Doesn't.

Because I Support The Second Amendment Doesn't Mean That I Want People Who Shouldn't Have Guns To Be Able To Threaten You, Kill You Or Members Of Your Family.

And Please, Please, Lets Us Put Mental Health Back On The Top Of Our National Agenda, Our Prisons And Our Jails Are Now Our Mental Health Institutions.

As President, I Will Take That Work, That Bipartisan Work, That Finding Common Ground, Because You Have To Be Able To Get Along With People To Get Things Done In Washington.

I Also Believe That We Have An Extraordinary Opportunity For The United States And European Union To Lead The World In Developing And Implementing New And More Efficient Technologies - Smart Electrical Grids And Electrical Vehicles.

I Look For People Who Have Raw Intelligence And A Great Work Ethic And Loyalty, And I Can Quickly Identify People Who Have The Right Ingredients. But Sometimes It Is More Difficult To Get Them To Accept The Fact That They Can Take On Increasing Responsibility. Oftentimes Individuals Will Decide How Far [they] Go By How Much Work They're Willing To Put In And How Quick They Are To Ask For Help. Too Many People Have This Deep-seated Fear That If They Ask For Help, They Will Be Thought Less Of.

Donald Was One Of The People Who Rooted For The Housing Crisis. He Said, Back In 2006, Gee, I Hope It Does Collapse Because Then I Can Go In And Buy Some And Make Some Money. Well, It Did Collapse.

I Have To Defend My Husband.

If You Help Create The Profits, You Should Be Able To Share In Them, Not Just The Executives At The Top.

We Have Places In America That Really Have Been Just Forgotten.

You've Got To Be Willing To Work, And If You're Willing To Work, You Should Be Able To Get Ahead And Stay Ahead.

One Person's Fashion Is Another Person's Disaster.

What The Champions Of Suffrage Understood Was That The Vote Is Not Just A Symbol Of Our Equality, But That It Can Be, If Used, A Guarantee Of Results.

Like The Railroads That Brought Us Together In The 19th Century, These Trails Will Bring Us Together In The 20th And 21st Centuries. (at Launch Of The National Millennium Trails Program, 1999)

How Do We Create Jobs For So Many Americans Who Are Feeling Pushed Out, Not Just Left Out, Pushed Out Of The Modern Economy. Obviously It's Skills And Education. But It's Also Jobs. So If I Could Do Anything It Would Be To Take This Moment In Time That We've Got When, Yes, Our Recovery Is Better, We've Had Steadier Growth, I Don't Think President [barack] Obama Frankly Gets The Credit He Deserves For The Kind Of Steady Hand That He And His Advisers Apply To Moving Through That Really Dangerous Period.

Women Are Always Being Tested ... But Ultimately, Each Of Us Has To Define Who We Are Individually And Then Do The Very Best Job We Can To Grow Into It.

I Am A Fan Of The Social Policies That You Find In Europe

I Believe American Corporations That Have Gotten So Much From Our Country Should Be Just As Patriotic In Return. Many Of Them Are, But Too Many Aren't. It's Wrong To Take Tax Breaks With One Hand And Give Out Pink Slips With The Other. And I Believe Wall Street Can Never, Ever Be Allowed To Wreck Main Street Again.

I Don't Care If You're A Liberal Icon Or A Conservative Icon. If You Are Not Willing To Be Active In Your Democracy And Do What Is Necessary To Deal With Our Problems, I Think You Should Be Voted Out.

The Facts Are - I Did Say I Hoped It [trans-pacific Partnership] Would Be A Good Deal, But When It Was Negotiated Which I Was Not Responsible For, I Concluded It Wasn't. I Wrote About That In My Book.

When I Talk About How We're Going To Pay For Education, How We're Going To Invest In Infrastructure, How We're Going To Get The Cost Of Prescription Drugs Down, And A Lot Of The Other Issues That People Talk To Me About All The Time, I've Made It Very Clear We Are Going Where The Money Is. We Are Going To Ask The Wealthy And Corporations To Pay Their Fair Share.

You Cannot Have Development In Today's World Without Partnering With The Private Sector.

We Need Steady Hands, Not A President Who Says He's Neutral On Monday, Pro-israel On Tuesday, And Who Knows What On Wednesday, Because Everything's Negotiable.

[young People] Can't Do Much With [student Debt] Other Than Try To Figure Out How To Pay It Down. They Can't Take Jobs They Want. They Can't Get The Credit They Would Like To Start A Business. So We're Going To Refinance It, We're Going Move People Into Income-contingent Repayment Plans, We're Going To Have A Date Certain When Their Obligations End, And I'm Not Going To Let The Government Harass Kids.

I Believe That, We're Better When We're Moving Forward. We're Stronger Together, So That's What I'm Going To Be Doing.

Today, There's More That Can And Should Be Done That Really Has To Come From The Industry Itself, And How We Can Strengthen Our Economy, Create More Jobs At A Time Where That's Increasingly Challenging, To Get Back To Teddy Roosevelt's Square Deal.

I Have, Ever Since The First Day Of My Campaign, Called For Criminal Justice Reform.

And You Know, If That's Not Enough For People, Then Heck, Don't Vote For Him.

The Orlando Terrorist May Be Dead. But The Virus That Poisoned His Mind Remains Very Much Alive. And We Must Attack It With Clear Eyes, Steady Hands, Unwavering Determination And Pride In Our Country And Our Values.

I'm Going To Use The White House And Every Tool At My Disposal As Your President To Make The Case That Patriotism Is Profitable.

I Am A Progressive Who Gets Things Done. And The Root Of That Word, Progressive, Is Progress.

Donald Trump Has Spent His Entire Campaign Offering A Dog Whistle To His Most Hateful Supporters.

Several People Have Told Me That One Of The Most Meaningful Events They Could Attend Would Be Something At The White House With Their Children.

Today We Voted As Democrats And Republicans. Tomorrow We Begin Again As New Yorkers.

Dynamism Is A Function Of Change.

I'm Not Concerned About What [donald Trump] Says About Me. That Doesn't Matter To Me. I'm Going To Stand Up For Immigrants. I'm Going To Stand Up For American Muslims Who Are Working Hard In This Country That They Love And Consider Their Own. I'm Going To Stand Up For Other Women. I'm Going To Stand Up For The Right To Choose.

I Just Want To Sleep And Exercise And Travel For Fun. And Relax. It Sounds So Ordinary, But I Haven't Done It For 20 Years.

We Also Have To Look At How We Help Families Balance The Responsibilities At Home And The Responsibilities At Business.

One Lesson I Have Learned The Hard Way, And There Will Not Be Any Such Thing In The White House. Although, I Am Quick To Add, There's No Evidence That It Was Ever Hacked. And Unfortunately, You Can't Say That For A Lot Of The Government.

What I Am Proposing Is That We Invest From The Middle Out And The Ground Up, Not The Top Down. That Is Not Going To Work.

Gay People Are Born Into, And Belong To, Every Society In The World. They Are All Ages, All Races, All Faiths. They Are Doctors And Teachers, Farmers And Bankers, Soldiers And Athletes.

I Will Take On The Epidemics Of Gun Violence And Campus Sexual Assault, So That Everyone In America Is Safe And Respected, No Matter Who They Are, Where They Live, Or Who They Love.

I Think Ted Cruz Is A Very Mean-spirited Guy. You Can See It From How The Republican Party Responds To Him.

I Think What Secretary Ash Carter Is Seeing, And I'm Glad He Is, Is That We Got To Get Nato Back Working For The Common Defense. We've Got To Do More To Support Our Partners In Nato, And We Have To Send A Very Clear Message To Putin That This Kind Of Belligerence, That This Kind Of Testing Of Boundaries Will Have To Be Responded To. The Best Way To Do That Is To Put More Armor In, Put More Money From The Europeans In So They're Actually Contributing More To Their Own Defense.

Our Democracy Has Been Around Far Longer Than European Democracy.

Democracies Have

When Does Life Start? When Does It End? Who Makes These Decisions?... Every Day, In Hospitals And Homes And Hospices... People Are Struggling With Those Profound Issues.

I Understand It. People Are Very Willing To Say Things About Me, To Make Accusations About Me That Are - I Don't Get Upset About Them Anymore, But They Are Very Regrettable.

I Am 100 Percent Confident. This Is A Security Review That Was Requested. It Is Being Carried Out. It Will Be Resolved. But I Have To Add If There's Going To Be A Security Review About Me, There's Going To Have To Be Security Reviews About A Lot Of Other People, Including Republican Office Holders, Because We've Got This Absurd Situation Of Retroactive Classifications.

The Clearest Way To Know Whether You Are With A Poor Person In America Is Not By The Logo On The Clothes, Because We All Wear Pretty Much The Same Anymore. It's By Looking Into Their Eyes And Seeing Whether They Look Into Yours, And Seeing What Kind Of Teeth They Have.

I Understand That Donald's [trump] Been Strongly Supported By The Nra. The Gun Lobby's On His Side. They're Running Millions Of Dollars Of Ads Against Me.

When We Liberate The Economic Potential Of Women, We Elevate The Economic Performance Of Communities, Nations, And The World.

Keeping Them Behind Bars Does Little To Reduce Crime, But It Does A Lot To Tear Apart Families, Our Prisons And Our Jails Are Now Our Mental Health Institutions.

I Feel That At This Point In Our Country's History, It Is Important That We Not Reverse Marriage Equality, That We Not Reverse Roe V. Wade, That We Stand Up Against Citizens United, We Stand Up For The Rights Of People In The Workplace, That We Stand Up And Basically Say: The Supreme Court Should Represent All Of Us. That's How I See The Court, And The Kind Of People That I Would Be Looking To Nominate To The Court Would Be In The Great Tradition Of Standing Up To The Powerful, Standing Up On Behalf Of Our Rights As Americans.

You Feel Sometimes When You Hear Analysts And Knowledgeable People Talking About Iran That They Fear So Much About The Survival Of The Regime, Because Deep Down It's Not A Legitimate Regime, It Doesn't Represent The Will Of The People, It's Kind Of Morphed Into Kind Of A Military Theocracy.

I Probably Described More Times Than I Can Remember How Stressful It Was Advising The President [barack Obama] About Going After Bin Laden.

We'll Hold Out Our Hand; They Have To Unclench Their Fist.

If I Had Lost The Popular Vote But Won The Electoral College And In My First Day As President The Intelligence Community Came To Me And Said, "the Russians Influenced The Election," I Would've Never Stood For It. Even Though It Might've Advantaged Me, I Would've Said, "we've Got To Get To The Bottom Of This." I Would've Set Up An Independent Commission With Subpoena Power And Everything Else.

[donald Trump] Suggestions That The United States Should Leave The Pacific And Let Japan, South Korea, Or Whoever Else Wants To Develop Nuclear Weapons. These Are Incredibly Dangerous Ideas That Need To Be Confronted.

In America, One Of The Biggest Problems We Have With China Is The Illegal Dumping Of Steel And Aluminum Into Our Markets. I Have Fought Against That As A Senator. I've Stood Up Against It As Secretary Of State.

We Need A Return To Transparency And A System Of Checks And Balances, To A President Who Respects Congress' Role Of Oversight And Accountability.

Different Presidents Have Different Strengths, They Bring Different Life Experiences.

Life Experience

There Is No Doubt That America Remains The Premier Political, Economic, Military Power In The World, And I Both Expect And Count On It Remaining So, Because I Think That's Certainly In Our Best Interest But Also The Best Interests Of The World.

I Know That So Many Of Us Hoped That, By Electing Our First Black President, We Had Turned The Page On This Chapter In Our History. But, Despite Our Best Efforts And Our Highest Hopes, America's Long Struggle With Race Is Far From Finished.

I Think That In An Age Where So Much Information Is Flying Through Cyberspace, We All Have To Be Aware Of The Fact That Some Information Which Is Sensitive, Which Does Affect The Security Of Individuals And Relationships, Deserves To Be Protected And We Will Continue To Take Necessary Steps To Do So.

Prosperity Can't Be Just For Ceos And Hedge Fund Managers. Democracy Can't Be Just For Billionaires And Corporations. Prosperity And Democracy Are Part Of Your Basic Bargain, Too.

Using That Kind Of Scare Rhetoric Is Just Terribly Unfortunate. You [donald Trump] Should Meet With Some Of The Women That I Have Met With, Women I Have Known Over The Course Of My Life. This Is One Of The Worst Possible Choices That Any Woman And Her Family Has To Make.

Relationships Are At The Core Of Any Political System And Economic System - Any Family - And I Think We Drifted Away From Understanding That In Our Country. The People-to-people Level Is Critical. It Is Ironic, Though - We Can Text With Anybody In The World, We Can Have A Videoconference With Anybody In The World, But [there Should Be] An Even Higher Premium On Showing Up And Getting To Know Someone.

If Donald Trump Were To Win This 2017 Election, We Would Have A Commander In Chief Who Is Completely Out Of His Depth And Whose Ideas Are Incredibly Dangerous.

We Have To Restore Trust Between Communities And The Police.

Simply Put, We Have To Be Smart About How We Use Our Power. Not Because We Have Less Of It Indeed, The Might Of Our Military, The Size Of Our Economy, The Influence Of Our Diplomacy, And The Creative Energy Of Our People Remain Unrivaled. No, It's Because As The World Has Changed, So Too Have The Levers Of Power That Can Most Effectively Shape International Affairs.

In Every Religion, There Are Those Who Would Drape Themselves In The Mantle Of Belief And Faith Only To Distort It's Most Sacred Teachings - Preaching Intolerance And Resorting To Violence.

I Will Go Anywhere, Anytime, To Meet With Anyone To Find Common Ground.

I Don't Believe That People Vote For President Based On Spouses. I Don't Even Think They Vote Much Based On Vice Presidents Or Any Other Factor. I Think They Choose Between The Two People Who Are Running.

When I Left The Secretary Of State Office, I Had A 69% Approval Rating. Once I Start Running For Office And All The Incoming You Know Is Battering Away, People Are Going To Say, "hey, Wait A Minute - What's That Mean, What's That Mean?" I Get All Of That, But I Don't Think We Do Any Service To Our Country Or The Voters If We Descend Into The Kind Of Insult Fest That He Seems To Relish.

I Want To Join Everyone In Expressing My Great Sympathy And Support For People Who Lost Loved Ones In This Terrible Terrorist Attack [in Orlando] And Everybody Still In The Hospital Who Is Struggling And All The First Responders.

I Will Be Laying Out In Detail, What I Think We Need To Do With Our Friends And Allies In Europe And Elsewhere To Do A Better Job Of Coordinating Efforts Against The Scourge Of Terrorism.

What I'm Concerned About Is The Views Of Many Democrats Who Know Their States, Who Know How Hard It Is To Win A General Election. And It Also Will Push Whoever The Nominee Is Into The Spotlight.
