I did learn a great deal about my husband but I also learned something about myself: I made a wise choice. I think he's a good man.

I believe in the great spirit and intelligence of Americans.

BlackBerrys are a wonderful tool. I'm very tenacious about keeping up with my kids, as they are with me.

I rely on some words that actually my husband said to me. He jokes about saying, "You know it's only darkest before it's totally black!" Even in my darkest hour - and my darkest hour was probably when I lost both my parents - I look to him and I see what he has endured, what he has overcome, what he is doing with his life, and just how he's lived his life.

I think security is a big issue for people.

I just want to be who I am. I think all women go through the belief that they need to be superwoman - that to be successful in any way, and I don't necessarily mean in business or anything, but just to be a successful person, you have to be superwoman.

I think Americans are good-hearted, open-minded people and race doesn't enter into this - at all.
