The message to both parties should be right now that we need to find ways to work together to speak to the American public.

The more you limit your choices, thereby limiting thought, the more you can simplify your life and focus your energy elsewhere.

We live in a gender-biased world. I know we have a lot. But I do know that this history we're making, when Hillary Clinton will accept the nomination, I think it's going to go good steps in helping this country heal from its past and grow towards its future that's more inclusive, more accepting and more realizing that every American has value and that discrimination has no place in politics, in the workplace or anywhere at all.

Give more than is expected, love more than seems wise, serve more than seems necessary, and help more than is asked.

No matter who you are, no matter what your color, creed, how you choose to pray or who you choose to love, that if you are an American - first generation or fifth - one who is willing to work hard, play by the rules and apply your God-given talents - that you should be able to find a job that pays the bills.

We choose forward. We choose inclusion. We choose growing together. We choose American economic might and muscle, standing strong on the bedrock of the American ideal: a strong, empowered and ever-growing middle class.

It is okay not to like someone, but it is never okay to try and degrade, humiliate, or dehumanize them.
