I'm not surprised if we begin to uncover the weapons program of Saddam Hussein - because he had a weapons program.

In the future history will be made only by us.

My job is to think beyond the immediate.

We will stand up for our friends in the world. And one of the most important friends is the State of Israel. My administration will be steadfast in support Israel against terrorism and violence, and in seeking the peace for which all Israelis pray.

Do I think faith will be an important part of being a good president? Yes, I do.

One of the common denominators I have found is that expectations rise above that which is expected.

I have zero desire, just so you know, to be in the limelight. I don't think it's good for the country to have a former president criticize his successor. You're not going to see me giving my opinions in the public arena, until I start selling my book. I'm going to emerge then submerge.
