And We Would Then Have To Put Them On Trains, On Buses To Get Them Out Of America.

I'm Going To Fight As Hard As I Can To Make Sure People Have The Futures That They Deserve Here In America.

It Cannot Be An American Fight. And I Think What The President [barack Obama] Has Consistently Said - Which I Agree With - Is That We Will Support Those Who Take The Fight To Isis.

We've Got To Reach Out To Muslim Countries.we've Got To Have Them Be Part Of Our Coalition. If They Hear People Running For President Who Basically Shortcut It To Say We Are Somehow Against Islam, That Was One Of The Real Contributions, Despite All The Other Problems, That George W. Bush Made After 9/11 When He Basically Said After Going To A Mosque In Washington, We Are Not At War With Islam Or Muslims.

There's No Doubt That I Respect The Second Amendment, That I Also Believe There's An Individual Right To Bear Arms. That Is Not In Conflict With Sensible, Commonsense Regulation.

[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.

I Have Met With Women Who Toward The End Of Their Pregnancy Get The Worst News One Could Get, That Their Health Is In Jeopardy If They Continue To Carry To Term Or That Something Terrible Has Happened Or Just Been Discovered About The Pregnancy. I Do Not Think The United States Government Should Be Stepping In And Making Those Most Personal Of Decisions. So You Can Regulate If You Are Doing So With The Life And The Health Of The Mother Taken Into Account.

Lifting Whole Passages From Someone Else's Speeches Is Not Change You Can Believe In. It's Change You Can Xerox.

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.

I'm Not Interested In, You Know, Turning The Clock Back Or Pointing Fingers, But I Am Interested In Trying To Figure Out How We Come Together To Chart A Better Way Forward And One That Will Restore Confidence In, You Know, Small And Medium-size Businesses And Consumers And Begin To Chip Away At The Unemployment Rate.

If You Wish To Fault The Administration, It Is That We Didn't Have A Clear Picture And We Probably Didn't Do As Clear A Job Explaining That We Did Not Have A Clear Picture Until Days Later.

Countries That Censor News And Information Must Recognize That From An Economic Standpoint, There Is No Distinction Between Censoring Political Speech And Commercial Speech. If Businesses In Your Nations Are Denied Access To Either Type Of Information, It Will Inevitably Impact On Growth.

I'm Going To Continue To Push For A No-fly Zone And Safe Havens Within Syria Not Only To Help Protect The Syrians And Prevent The Constant Outflow Of Refugees, But To, Frankly, Gain Some Leverage On Both The Syrian Government And The Russians So That Perhaps We Can Have The Kind Of Serious Negotiation Necessary To Bring The Conflict To An End And Go Forward On A Political Track.

And I Think That At The End Of The Day, It's Not So Much Electability. It Is Who The American People Can Believe Can Keep Them Safe, Can Get The Economy Moving Again, Can Get Incomes Rising, Can Build On The Progressive Accomplishments Of President [barack] Obama.

If You Look At What The Factors Were Going Into The Decision, Of Course There Are Competing Interests And Values. And One Of Our Values Is We Bring Everybody Home Off The Battlefield The Best We Can. It Doesn't Matter How They Ended Up In A Prisoner Of War Situation... It Does Not Matter.

You Know, Nato As A Military Alliance Has Something Called Article 5, And Basically It Says This: An Attack On One Is An Attack On All. And You Know The Only Time It's Ever Been Invoked?

In An Excess Of Examples, The Walk To Globalization Has Additionally Implied The Minimization Of Women And Young Ladies. What's More That Must Change.

When I Was Secretary Of State, I Had To Be Responsible For Getting A Nuclear Arms Reduction Treaty With Russia Through The Senate. We Needed, I Think, 13 Republican Votes To Get To 67. I Started Working In The Summer Making Just Endless Phone Calls, Meetings, Bringing Experts To Talk To Republicans, And Then We Finally Got It Done At The End Of The Year 2010.

Barack Obama Went High, Despite Donald Trump's Best Efforts To Bring Him Down.

I Think It's Fair To Say There Is A Demagogic Path That Europeans, South Americans, Asians Have Pursued, And We Know Where That Leads.

That's The Largest Allocation In More Than A Decade - Since We Last Had A Democratic President, I Might Add.

I Wanted To Work On Policy Because I Think It Really Makes A Difference.

Making A Difference

Costs Are Incurred Whenever Any Group Is Treated As Lesser Or The Other, Whether They Are Women, Racial, Or Religious Minorities, Or The Lgbt.

I Think Science Is Real. And I Think It's Important That We Grip This And Deal With It, Both At Home And Abroad.

The Golden Rule: Do Unto Others As You Would Have Them Do Unto You. I Think It's A Good Rule For Politics, Too.

Every Presidential Candidate For Decades Has Released His Tax Returns, And I've Released 33 Years Of My Tax Returns. The American People Deserve To Know About Our Taxes.

The United States Compared To A Number Of Our Competitors Is The Only Government In The World With Any Kind Of Safeguards, Any Kind Of Checks And Balances. They May In Many Respects Need To Be Strengthened And People Need To Be Reassured, And They Need To Have Their Protections Embodied In Law.

I Have Said That I'm Not Running And I'm Having A Great Time Being Pres — Being A First-term Senator.

Before It Was Called Hillarycare - I Mean, Before It Was Called Obamacare It Was Called Hillarycare Because We Took Them On, And We Weren't Successful, But We Kept Fighting And We Got The Children's Health Insurance Program.

If You're A Realist, You Know That People Have Different Roles To Play In Politics, Economics, And This Is An Important Role, But I Do Think That There Has To Be An Understanding Of How What Happens Here On Wall Street Has Such Broad Consequences Not Just For The Domestic But The Global Economy, So More Thought Has To Be Given To The Process And Transactions And Regulations So That We Don't Kill Or Maim What Works, But We Concentrate On The Most Effective Way Of Moving Forward With The Brainpower And The Financial Power That Exists Here.

People Are Motivated To Vote Early, To Defend Core American Values.

Congress Has All Sorts Of Rules, Hedge Fund Managers, Private Equity Managers, Executives, Movie Stars, Fall Into That Allow Them To Escape Or Defer Into The Future Not Paying Their Taxes.
