In the Cleveland area, I have been instrumental in helping to save or create thousands of jobs. People know me there as a person who gets involved.

So actually war is politically profitable, financially profitable, morally depraved.

We tried war, we tried aggression, we tried intervention. None of it works. Why don't we try peace, as a science of human relations, not as some vague notion - as everyday work.

The belief in the inevitability of war is a self-fulfilling prophecy... We need an alternative vision, to see the world as one, as interconnected.

America as a nation cannot walk in faith and fear at the same time.

We're not locked in to these conditions that degrade the environment, and jeopardize the future of our children.

My political career goes back to the '60s and those were times of vigorous debates.
