It's not impossible for a woman - a Black woman - to become President.

I think that we have a responsibility to make certain that we are fiscally responsible in order to assure, frankly, future generations don't have to pay our bills.

I think Americans want to believe in this country again.

Defining myself, as opposed to being defined by others, is one of the most difficult challenges I face.

All I really want to be is boring. When people talk about me, I'd like them to say, Carol's basically a short Bill Bradley. Or, Carol's kind of like Al Gore in a skirt.

I am determined to try to rebuild and renew this country in ways that will build community and level the playing field. To me, that means making certain that the fight to preserve our civil liberties is waged, making certain the fight against discrimination is waged, making certain that women have opportunity in this country.

Well, if you pick a fight with somebody that's smaller than you and you beat them, where's the honor in that?
