I am desperate for change - now - not in 8 years or 12 years, but right now.

I don't have the stressful job. Barack Obama does.

We need all hands on deck, and that means clearing hurdles for women and girls as they navigate careers in science, technology, engineering, and math.

We can aim to create a culture, where kids ask for healthy options instead of resisting them.

Let Girls Learn issue has always been personal for me. I grew up in a working-class neighborhood on the South Side of Chicago where most folks, including my parents, didn't have college degrees. But with a lot of hard work - and a lot of financial aid - I had the chance to attend Princeton and Harvard Law School, and that gave me the confidence to pursue my ambitions.

Fruits and vegetables for some kids are scary and not fun.
