My husband's the first one to say, "This is not the end of the world." We're doing what we want to do - what we have chosen to do - and we know the risks involved.

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.

As a mother, I - like everyone else - have to fill my gas tank in my car. I have to feed my family. I have to be able to make sure that I can keep a roof over their heads and, with things escalating the way they are, it's very difficult. People are losing their homes.

I think it's a right that every American parent should have - choice and competition in education, and choice in schools are most important to me.

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.

If you really want to see change, and have change, you're going to have to get involved.

Our government treats the LGBT community like second-class citizens.
