I think teaching should be an exalted profession, not a picked-on profession.

When you run for president you have certain obligations. One of them would be to avoid even the appearance of conflicts of interest.

But I don't think the Democratic Party is at eye level with the middle class.

We repeal sanctions, it tells Russia, go ahead and interfere in our elections and do bad things; it tells China, it tells Iran. That would be terrible.

I think, the left makes a mistake. If you look particularly at the state levels, violent repeat criminals are not punished enough. The average murderer is sentenced to 17 1/2 years but serves six. The average rapist is sentenced to 10 years but serves about three and a half. The average mugger is sentenced to five years and serves little more than one.

The highest priority you can have is education.
