LGBT Americans are our colleagues, our teachers, our soldiers, our friends, our loved ones, and they are full and equal citizens and deserve the rights of citizenship. That includes marriage.
Hillary ClintonNobody should want to wake up on November 9th and wonder whether there was more you could have done.
Hillary ClintonI feel strongly that we have to have an education system that starts with preschool and goes through college. That's why I want more technical education in high schools and in community colleges, real apprenticeships to prepare young people for the jobs of the future.
Hillary ClintonThere are 4 billion cell phones in use today. Many of them are in the hands of market vendors, rickshaw drivers, and others who've historically lacked access to education and opportunity. Information networks have become a great leveler, and we should use them together to help lift people out of poverty and give them a freedom from want.
Hillary ClintonThey [American Muslim community] need to have close working cooperation with law enforcement in these communities, not be alienated and pushed away as some of Donald's [Trump] rhetoric, unfortunately, has led to.
Hillary ClintonThis year, the United States renewed funding of reproductive healthcare through the United Nations Population Fund, and more funding is on the way. The U.S. Congress recently appropriated more than $648 million in foreign assistance to family planning and reproductive health programs worldwide. That's the largest allocation in more than a decade - since we last had a Democratic president, I might add.
Hillary ClintonNever waste a good crisis...Don't waste it when it can have a very positive impact on climate change and energy security.
Hillary ClintonCyber security will be an issue that I will be absolutely focused on as president. Because whether it's Russia, or China, Iran or North Korea more and more countries are using hacking to steal our information, to use it to their advantage. And we can't let that go on.
Hillary ClintonThe kinds of cases that fall at the end of pregnancy are often the most heartbreaking, painful decisions for families to make.
Hillary ClintonOccasionally Iโll be sitting somewhere and Iโll be listening to someone perhaps not saying the kindest things about me. And Iโll look down at my hand and Iโll sort of pinch my skin to make sure it still has the requisite thickness I know Eleanor Roosevelt expects me to have.
Hillary ClintonI think we can take back Mosul, and then we can move on into Syria and take back Raqqa.
Hillary ClintonWe have a lot of inequality, and I'm not a one-issue candidate, because I don't think this is a one-issue country. So I want to knock down all the barriers that stand in the way of people getting ahead and staying ahead.
Hillary ClintonI am not going to let anyone into America who is not vetted, who we do not have confidence in. But I am not going to slam the door on women and children.
Hillary ClintonI can't stand the kind of paralysis that some people fall into because they're not happy with the choices they've made.
Hillary ClintonI really feel strongly that we can make change for every person. And it will be radical in the person's life.
Hillary ClintonThe American taxpayer should not be treated more shabbily than debtors from other nations and we should be encouraging other nations to help rebuild Iraq's economy.
Hillary ClintonI had often joked in my speeches that I had imaginary conversations with Mrs. Roosevelt to solicit her advice on a range of subjects. It's actually a useful mental exercise to help analyze problems, provided you choose the right person to visualize. Eleanor Roosevelt was ideal.
Hillary ClintonOn healthcare we are the prisoner of our past. The way we got to develop any kind of medical insurance program was during World War II when companies facing shortages of workers began to offer healthcare benefits as an inducement for employment. So from the early 1940s healthcare was seen as a privilege connected to employment. And after the war when soldiers came back and went back into the market there was a lot of competition, because the economy was so heated up.
Hillary ClintonWe know now that Donald Trump's comments are actually being used to recruit and radicalize on the Internet.
Hillary ClintonI have gone from a Barry Goldwater Republican to a New Democrat, but I think my underlying values have remained pretty constant; individual responsibility and community. I do not see those as being mutually inconsistent.
Hillary ClintonI think it's time to send a clear message to what has become the most profitable sector in the entire economy [the oil industry], that they are being watched.
Hillary ClintonI believe that what I've worked for - women and children, civil rights against poverty, trying to level the playing field for people to have a better chance - is what I still believe is important and what I'm trying to do today.
Hillary ClintonI'm one of those people who thinks that changing one's hair is the only part of the body that you can change at will.
Hillary ClintonThe American president has to both keep our families safe and make the economy grow in a way that helps everyone, not just those at the top. That`s the job. I have a strategy to combat and defeat ISIS without getting us involved in another ground war. And I have plans to raise incomes and deal with a lot of the problems that keep families up at night.
Hillary ClintonIt's really hard to get to know me, or any candidate. And I would be asked questions like, well, why are you really running for president?
Hillary ClintonI have said publicly no option should be off the table, but I would certainly take nuclear weapons off the table.
Hillary ClintonI want us to do more to support people who are struggling to balance family and work.
Hillary ClintonThe gun epidemic is the leading cause of death of young African- American men, more than the next nine causes put together. So we have to do two things, as I said. We have to restore trust. We have to work with the police. We have to make sure they respect the communities and the communities respect them.
Hillary ClintonThere is no question in my mind that if we summon our resources, both our leadership resources and all of the tools at our disposal, not just military force, which should be used as a last resort, but our diplomacy, our development aid, law enforcement, sharing of intelligence in a much more open and cooperative way. We can bring people together, but it cannot be an American fight.
Hillary ClintonIt's also important that we look at the entire global situation. There's no doubt that we have other problems with Iran. But personally, I'd rather deal with the other problems having put that lid on their nuclear program than still to be facing that.
Hillary ClintonI do think questions have been raised and questions have to be answered.And there is no way to predict what comes in the door of that White House from day to day that can pose a threat to the United States or one of our friends and allies, and I think this is a big part of the job interview that we are all conducting with the voters here.
Hillary ClintonIt was during George W. Bush's presidency that Iran mastered the nuclear fuel cycle, that they built covert facilities, that they stocked them with centrifuges, that they were spinning merrily away toward getting a nuclear-weapons program.
Hillary ClintonIt's important to recognize the vital role that the financial markets play in our economy and that so many of you are contributing to. To function effectively those markets and the men and women who shape them have to command trust and confidence, because we all rely on the market's transparency and integrity. So even if it may not be 100 percent true, if the perception is that somehow the game is rigged, that should be a problem for all of us, and we have to be willing to make that absolutely clear.
Hillary ClintonI want to take some of the ideas that worked when my husband was president, and we ended up with 23 million new jobs and incomes went up for everybody.
Hillary ClintonI also believe that we have an extraordinary opportunity for the United States and European Union to lead the world in developing and implementing new and more efficient technologies - smart electrical grids and electrical vehicles.
