Americans are a nation of immigrants.

The job of a legislator is much more fixing existing law, revising it, improving it, than it is passing something that doesn't exist.

In fact, that's a great thing about America and even about being Catholic, we have plenty of opinions.

Do you want a you're hired president in Hillary Clinton or a you're fired president in Donald Trump? I don't think that's such a hard choice.

If you think of big, legislative accomplishments, most of them kind of get initiated with the president putting something out there and Congress working on it.

I am so proud to be running with another strong history-making woman, Hillary Clinton, to be president of the United States. I'm proud because her vision of stronger together, building an economy that works for all, not just those at the top, being safe in the world, not only with a strong military, but also strong alliances to battle terrorism and climate change, and also to build a community of respect, just like Barbara Johns tried to do 65 years ago. That's why I'm so proud to be her running mate.

You spend your time blaming the other for what's not getting done and you actually do a couple things, and then you switch to, "Hey, let's instead compete about who gets the credit for what we just did." And that's a lot more fun.
