I think Donald Trump is dividing the American people. He is not good for America. It's not good for our standing in the rest of the world. To divide people based on race, a color, a religion, a sexual orientation, it's just ... it's just wrong.

I'm gonna say that I have followed every presidential campaign since the campaign of President [John F.] Kennedy in 1960.

My mother and father and many of my relatives had been sharecroppers.

Don`t give up! Don`t give in! Keep the faith! And keep your eyes on the prize!

But you have to have hope. You have to be optimistic in order to continue to move forward.

I think [Donald Trump] is going to be inaugurated this week. I have great concerns, and apparently Republicans do as well, and there's going to be an investigation about the role that Russian hacking played in getting him elected.

We all remember that [Donald] Trump was one of the leaders of the so-called birther movement trying to delegitimize the presidency of our first African-American president Barack Obama, which is an outrage.
