We know that Medicare's going broke in seven years, but we need to start over. That's what the American people want us to do.

That does not mean we won't experience the tragedy of the loss of some American lives. We will have an opportunity to instill a democracy in Iraq which will be an example and perhaps force other nations in that region to move in the same direction.

We know that this nation entered into solemn treaties [with Indian tribes] which have been continuously violated for more than 250 years. It's a disgrace. It's an outrage. We must do everything in our power to keep those treaties. Otherwise, the word of the United States government is no good.

In California, it's hard to buy all the media, no matter how much money you raise or spend, because it's such a huge state.

Sen. Obama is a decent person and a person you don't have to be scared of as president of the United States.

Everybody says that they're against the special interests. I'm the only one the special interests don't give any money to.
