I just learned not to take a single thing for granted, and I think it just is extraordinary.

But one of the things I learned is that when you fight for something you believe in and you tell the truth and you do your best, you can always hold your head up high and no one can take that away from you.

We don't necessarily always agree, but hopefully we make each other think, and that's what matters.

It was definitely a part of our life. I mean, my mom had both her brothers and her fiancee in Vietnam at the same time, so it wasn't just my dad's story, it was my mom's story too. And we definitely grew up listening to the stories.

My father loves his country and is ready to lead it. In my fathers gut: integrity.

It wasnt until two or three years ago that I actually learned that in the end he actually did kill someone. But that was a choice that he faced: to kill or be killed.

The dinner table is a lively debate, and everybody weighs in in a different way. I like that, though.
