I would like to spend my next two years showing how the aim of making technology available to every young person can be built into the effort to make our nation more secure. That is my latest concern and what I will be pushing over the next two years.

The first place to start is on enforcement. We who got the ADA passed did the hard part, the heavy lifting.

Competition is such a virtue, and everybody's so busy competing, they have no time for compassion.

It is very difficult to get legislation passed. But then the danger always is that you have no power at all if you do not exercise constant power.

I have a great deal of respect and admiration for people who put themselves on the line.

I do not think we are ever going to be able to, for a long time, get the kind of quality of school personnel that we need in our schools, especially in the areas of science and math. One of the answers to that problem is to use more educational technology.

Education technology is very important because we have a massive challenge in public schools.
