both fooled fooling good involved people politician politics
I think people involved in politics make good actors. Acting and politics both involve fooling people. People like being fooled by actors. When you get right down to it, they probably like being fooled by politicians even more. A skillful actor will make you think, but a skillful politician will make you never have to think.
failure
Failure. It doesn't exist. 'Failure' is just what happens when we lose perspective.
My mama told me it's not what they call you - it's what you answer to.
entire talk
We can talk to the entire country, and not just the Beltway chatters,
No one is demonizing or even saying anything as intemperate as Donald Trump has said about blacks living in squalor conditions.
thinking trying conflict
I think they [Hillary and Bill Clinton] have been - they have shown over and over again that they're willing to be transparent and that they have gone beyond the letter of the law, to show that they're trying to make sure there are bright red, green, purple lines that will separate them from any type of conflict.
people forget clinton
I'm a reporter. I've been a big supporter of The Clinton Foundation. Back in 2001 and 2002, people forget that Bill Clinton went to Harlem and set this foundation up. They've helped millions of people across the globe and here in America.
heart school kids
I can tell you about Hillary Clinton's heart. This is a woman, who, after law school, went down to my native South. She went down, after graduating from Yale Law School, to help poor kids, to help disabled kids.
mother country children
Donald Trump has not gone to historical black colleges - Hillary Clinton. He's not met with the mothers of children who have been slain and killed from violence in the country as Hillary Clinton has done.
heart compassion bigotry
I'm not here to talk about bigotry in the sense that I don't know what's in Donald Trump's heart. I hope that it's a heart of compassion.
running hero political
Shirley Chisholm is another one [political hero]. She was a dynamic speaker, and the first black woman to run for President.
hero political inspired
Barbara Jordan is one [of the political heroes]. Her 1976 speech in New York inspired me to get into politics.
racism
It's almost like a renaissance of racism we have.
country opportunity people
Hillary Clinton is talking to all Americans. She's talking about jobs, she's talking about how to make this country stronger in terms of our national security. She's talking about opportunity for our young people.
