What's four years in our long American history? Remember when I asked that wheelchair-bound politician to "stand up." It turns me off when people say Donald Trump is authentic. Just because he says "Mexican rapists." What about me? I am the real deal.

The point being we used to have a system that wasn't as rigged in how the tax structure functioned. The president [Barack Obama] and I have been trying to get rid of some of these loopholes for some time. Look, we have to change the corporate culture.

I am a Catholic. I can't say that without pointing out that I oppose abortion with all my heart and soul. Bill Clinton wanted them safe and rare. Barack Obama is heartsick that so many people he knows have had abortions. But we're all pro-choice and believe in reproductive freedom and oppose the Republicans' War on Women.

It's presumptuous to say you know how somebody feels.

You know whether you have a real relationship with the president when you know it's real.

If you're in a confined aircraft; when one person sneezes, it goes all the way through the aircraft.

If you do politics the right way, I believe, you can actually make people's lives better. And integrity is the minimum ante to get into the game.
