I didn't used to care about living a long time. Not that I wasn't enjoying life, but I never sat around asking how I'd get to be 100, you know. But now I want to live long enough to see every school child in the world getting a good, nutritious lunch every day.

I seek the presidency because I believe deeply in the American promise and can no longer accept the diminishing of that promise.
