I just want to assure you that both President Bush and I have very firm alibis.

My friends, that's trickle-down economics, and I believe every worker in America is tired of being trickled on by George W. Bush

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.

We deserve a president of the United States who will write laws for all Americans, not for campaign contributors. And I intend to be a president for all Americans who takes back the flag of our country because it doesn't belong to any party, doesn't belong to any president.

I will not stop in our efforts to hunt down and kill the terrorists.

I don't want to claim that God is on our side. As Abraham Lincoln told us, I want to pray humbly that we are on God's side.

Strong leadership demands more than the willingness to use force. It means directing the use of the right tools at the right time for the right purpose and the right cause.
