Senator [Ben] Sanders and I share some very big progressive goals. I've been fighting for universal healthcare for many years, and we're now on the path to achieving it. I don't want us to start over again. I think that would be a great mistake, to once again plunge our country into a contentious debate about whether we should have and what kind of system we should have for healthcare.

Don`t believe anyone who says, "I alone can fix it." Americans don`t say, "I alone can fix it." We say, "We`ll fix it together!"

Politics is like sausage being made. It is unsavory, and it always has been that way, but we usually end up where we need to be.

I thought using one device would be simpler.

I don't have any comment on who the people of Russia choose to be their leaders.

I made a mistake using a private e- mail.And if I had to do it over again, I would, obviously, do it differently. But I'm not going to make any excuses. It was a mistake, and I take responsibility for that.

I don't think that the United States has the bulk of the responsibility. I really put that on Bashar Assad and on the Iraqis and on the region itself.
