I think that there is a bipartisan consensus that's incorrect that we should have the whole world be in NATO. For example, if we had Ukraine and Georgia in NATO - and this is something McCain and the other neocons have advocated for - we would be at war now because Russia has invaded both of them.

You wonder why your government's completely broken? We lurch from deadline to deadline, and it's on purpose really. We do deadline to deadline because ... 'we've got to go. It's spring break, we're going to be late for spring break, and we've got to go, so we've got to finish this up before we go.'

I love the Mexican people I respect the Mexican leaders - but the leaders are much sharper, smarter and more cunning than our [American] leaders.

If our freedom is taken, the American dream will wither and die.

You have to decide in advance whether you're ready go to war. If you guys are ready to send a million troops into Ukraine and fight World War III, you're going to do it without my support because I think that's a really foolish notion.

After ensuring border security, I then would normalize the status of 11 million undocumented citizens so they can join the work force and pay taxes...I would normalize them at a rate of about two million per year.

Bipartisanship is not what is missing in Washington. Common sense is.

I've heard of many tragic cases of walking, talking normal children who wound up with profound mental disorders after vaccines.

The history of African-American repression in this country rose from government-sanctioned racism. Jim Crow laws were a product of bigoted state and local governments.

2007 was a long time ago, and events do change over long periods of time.

Actually we're very lucky John McCain is not in charge because I think we would be in perpetual war.

I think women have come a long way. Women are in positions not because they're women, they're in positions because they're intelligent and they should be equal to their counterparts and treated equally.
