The United Nations should come in and take over Liberia, not temporarily, but for life. To make Liberians believe in democracy, to make us believe in human rights, they need to go in and just seize control of the country. That is the only way Liberia will ever become the kind of country it was supposed to be.

When I was growing up in Monrovia, the capital of Liberia, I sold doughnuts, popcorn and Kool Aid every day after school so that my family had some money and I could pay my school fees. It was a tough life.

It can't be Sunday every day. There are also Mondays and Tuesdays.

I will go on my knees and ask the Liberian people to participate in bringing peace and stability to our country.

I ask Liberians to pray so that God will bring peace and stability, and bring about unification to ourselves.

Once you take care of people, people respect you.

They say I do not have the qualifications to be president, that I do not have education. Well, I would never divide the Liberian people.
