Medical professionals, not insurance company bureaucrats, should be making health care decisions.

I've faced the grief, I've faced the anger, and I'm ready to keep up the fight because America is worth fighting for.

Every American at some point has got to make the connection between their own hopes and dreams and who is elected to office. It's essential. It's very easy to pull the covers up over your head and say, "I can't handle it. Too much." But we just have to handle it and we have to accept that it's our job. Each of us. Nobody is going to take care of it.

I would not run for president. I really like what I'm doing now. People say I'm giving them energy and hope.

It's good I was born in Brooklyn. You learn how to take care of yourself.

I've been there for so many crossroads in American history. My whole political life spans the birth of the environmental movement, the women's movement, the civil rights movement, putting an end to unjust wars, and so and so.

I think Democrats are right. We fight for the American dream, for the environment, for privacy rights, a woman's right to choose, a good public education system.
