I would not use American ground forces in Syria. I think that would be a very serious mistake. I don't think American troops should be holding territory, which is what they would have to do as an occupying force. I don't think that is a smart strategy.

I started off as a young lawyer working against discrimination against African-American children in schools and in the criminal justice system. I worked to make sure that kids with disabilities could get a public education, something that I care very much about. I have worked with Latinos - one of my first jobs in politics was down in south Texas registering Latino citizens to be able to vote. So I have a deep devotion to making sure that an every American feels like he or she has a place in our country.

I think we're all safer when the police respect the communities they're supposed to serve, and the communities respect the law.

I am not going to engage in the kind of behavior that you see from Donald Trump.

Donald Trump'd rather believe Vladimir Putin than the military and civilian intelligence professionals who are sworn to protect us.

We are at a stage in history in which remolding society is one of the great challenges facing all of us in the West.

What difference, at this point, does it make?
