Germany, South Korea - these are all countries that are investing massively in education. We've got to do the same thing in America.

I think that what is true is that the Russians intended to meddle, and they meddled. And it could be another country in the future.

The fact that there is a robust debate in Congress is good. The fact that the debate sometimes seems unanchored to facts is not so good.

I think we have two conflicting traditions in this country. I think it's important for us to recognize that we've got a tradition of handgun ownership and gun ownership generally. And a lot of people - law-abiding citizens use if for hunting, for sportsmanship, and for protecting their families. We also have a violence on the streets that is the result of illegal handgun usage. And so I think there is nothing wrong with a community saying we are going to take those illegal handguns off the streets.

It would be good for the workers in Vietnam even as it helps make sure that they're not undercutting competition here in the United States.
