I believe in the great spirit and intelligence of Americans.

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

The secret to a happy marriage is patience and honesty. I really mean that. You have to be patient, you have to be open, and you also have to be available for criticism, too.

I would continue to do the things that I do. I'd get into the field and work, and be an example to other people that you can't rely on the government to be the answer to everything.

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