I get overwhelming support in the African-American community.

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

When Nixon declared the war on cancer, he had no army. He had no tools. He had no anything, except good intentions.

The idea that you know more than the intelligence community knows, it's a little like saying, I know more about physics than my professor.

Don't listen to the cynics. They were wrong about my generation and they were wrong about yours.

I believe all Americans are born with certain inalienable rights. As a child of God, I believe my rights are not derived from the constitution. My rights are not derived from any government. My rights are not denied by any majority. My rights are because I exist. They were given to me and each of my fellow citizens by our creator, and they represent the essence of human dignity.

Let's just be smart this time. I'm looking for smart.
