I think my main concern is because I worry about demagoguery. It`s real. You see the people standing up there and applauding.

Countering violent extremism and destroying ISIS must be done primarily by Muslim nations with the strong support of their global partners.

In terms of the nature of the continuation of the Cold War, which has gone on so long between Cuba and the United States, I applaud the president for aggressively trying to end it and I hope we will have not only full diplomatic relations, but that the trade embargo will end.

I believe strongly that we can protect our people without undermining our constitutional rights and I worry very, very much about the huge attacks on privacy that we have seen in recent years - both from the government and the private sector. I worry that we are moving toward an Orwellian society, and this is something I will oppose as vigorously as I can.

There is something fundamentally wrong about the way we [americans] are moving as a country, when billionaires are able to buy elections as a result of Citizens United. There`s something fundamentally wrong when 99 percent of all new income goes to the top 1 percent.

CEOs of large corporations earn 400 times what their workers make. That is not what America is supposed to be about.

You need a Democratic Party which is a grassroots party, which makes decisions from the bottom on up, not just from the top on down.
