I don't think this debate is negative, it is enriching

...it is true that renewable energy is expensive and can't be done without public sector support, it is an important investment in the future.

It's true that the war in Iraq opened a distance in relations between part of Europe and the U.S. government, but our basic ties are stronger than that. We share democracy, free markets and a commitment to Western security. We differ on how to guarantee that security.

Europe is and will be a Union of States.

The more equality women have, the fairer, more civilized and tolerant society will be. Sexual equality is a lot more effective against terrorism than military strength.

Markets are very important but for the government the citizens are more so.

I said when I came into office that I don't want to be a great leader; I want to be a good democrat.
