I'm going to be honest: I know a lot less about economics than I do about military and foreign policy issues. I still need to be educated.

Iraq is now the central front in the war against al-Qaeda.

Round up and deport two million aliens who committed crimes.

It's a matter of fact that Senator Obama has spent more money on negative ads than any political campaign in history.

I think, again, neither of these candidates [Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton] is blowing me away. Actually, I would like both of them to get more policy specific.

I spent several years in a north Vietnamese prison camp in the dark, fed with scraps. Do you think I want to do that all over again as vice president of the United States?

I think it's a very legitimate aspect of American life to criticize and to disagree and to debate. But I want to say I think it's a lie to say that the president lied to the American people. I sat on the Robb-Silverman Commission. I saw many, many analysts that came before that committee. I asked every one of them-I said, 'Did-were you ever pressured politically or any other way to change your analysis of the situation as you saw?' Every one of them said no.
