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 Would Not Have Imagined Being Asked To Be Secretary Of State, It Was A Great Honor To Serve With President Obama In His Cabinet.

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? After 9/11, When The 28 Nations Of Nato Said That They Would Go To Afghanistan With Us To Fight Terrorism, Something That They Still Are Doing By Our Side.

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.

If They Hear People Running For - President... 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. We Are At War With Violent Extremism. We Are At War With People Who Use Their Religion For Purposes Of Power And Oppression."

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.

Whether I Am Meant To Or Not, I Challenge Assumptions About Women. I Do Make Some People Uncomfortable, Which I'm Well Aware Of, But That's Just Part Of Coming To Grips With What I Believe Is Still One Of The Most Important Pieces Of Unfinished Business In Human History - Empowering Women To Be Able To Stand Up For Themselves.

Unfinished Business

It Would Be Impossible To Be Fact-checking Donald Trump All The Time.

The President [barack Obama] Himself Has Said He Thought Part Of His Job Was To Remind The American People That Being President And Commander In Chief Is A Serious Responsibility.

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.

I Think People Do Want Change, But We Want To Make Sure That The Change Will Actually Help People. And That's Why I Reject The Change Agenda That Donald Trump Has.

I Think It's Important For People To Say Look, What Does Each Party And Each Candidate Have To Offer For You.

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.

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 Not Going To Tell People That I Will Raise Your Incomes And Not Your Taxes, And Not Mean It, Because I Don't Want To See The Kind Of Struggle That The Middle Class Is Going Through Exemplified By These Promises That Would Raise Taxes And Make It Much More Difficult For Many, Many Americans To Get Ahead And Stay Ahead.

If You Like Your Email Provider, You Can Keep Your Email Provider. Period.

There Is A Great Deal Of Political Pressure To Only Talk About Abstinence, And To Deny Support For Condoms And Education On Using Them. This Policy Will Lead To The Unnecessary Deaths Of Many People.

Women Have Always Been The Primary Victims Of War. Women Lose Their Husbands, Their Fathers, Their Sons In Combat. Women Often Have To Flee From The Only Homes They Have Ever Known.
