It's not about government telling people what to do. It's about each of us, in our own families, in our own communities, standing up and demanding more for our kids. And it's about companies like Walmart answering that call.

So we know that it's not enough for us to simply encourage more people to study abroad. We also need to make sure that they can actually afford it.

The president [Barack Obama] asked for a commitment of, I think, 100,000 jobs for veterans and military spouses over the next couple of years. And we announced during the tour last week that we have gotten more than 60,000 jobs, and we're well on our way to just crashing that goal out of the water, because what businesses are understanding is that these men and women are some of the most highly trained resources that we have in this country.

The idea that we are our brother's keeper and our sister's keeper. That we should treat others as we would want to be treated. And that we care for the sick... feed the hungry... and welcome the stranger... no matter where they come from, or how they practice their faith.

We're going to have to change our traditions, our history.

My happiness is measured against my kids' happiness - when they're in a good place, I feel really good.

Ultimately this issue is on us. We're the ones who make the decisions about what our kids eat.
