I think this is the biggest lesson a president or any of us who has responsibility to govern have to learn: There are always consequences to actions that you take. There are consequences to inaction.

I'm not sure leaders listen enough, especially to their people. And I've always thought in everything I've tried to do in my life, in the jobs I've had, is that if we can turn our transmitters off and our receivers on more often, we're better leaders and we know more of what is going on and therefore we can lead more effectively.

No border that touches Israel is always secure.

My overall worldview has never changed: that America has and must maintain the strongest military in the world, that we must lead the international community to confront threats and challenges together, and that we must use all tools of American power to protect our citizens and our interests.

Peace comes through dealing with people. Peace doesn't come at the end of a bayonet or the end of a gun.

No one individual vote, no one individual quote or no one individual statement defines me, my beliefs, or my record.

The Israeli people must be free to live in peace and security.
