If you think I would have gone to war the way George Bush did, don't vote for me.

In case after case, President Bush's actions have made American women less safe and less secure -- on the job and on the streets. As president, I will put American government and our legal system back on the side of women. I will stand up for their security, ensure their safety, support their rights, and guarantee their dignity. This nation can do no less.

I would rather be the candidate of the NAACP than the NRA.

Ask Osama bin Laden is he is better off now than he was four years ago.

President Clinton was often known as the first black president. I wouldn't be upset if I could earn the right to be the second.

It took President Obama to make America lead like America again.

Without question, we need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime ... He presents a particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to miscalculation ... And now he is miscalculating America's response to his continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction ... So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real.
