real thinking people
The worst thing to me would be that you put on the face you think people want to see, and then they don't like it and you think, Would they have liked the real me?
mother children stories
Part of what I want to do is sort of reclaim my story - it belongs to me and to my children, who have to live with whoever their mother is.
school college years
I was an English major in college, and then I went to graduate school in English at the University of North Carolina for three years.
children parent gone
Every parent has gone through a period when their child wasn't so happy with them.
military integrated sexually
The military is already sexually integrated.
faithful being-faithful leaving-me
Leave me if you must, but be faithful to me if you are with me.
real shoes people
You know, I once read a short story about how much you could tell about people from their shoes. You could tell where they had been, what they did, whether they were real walkers.
race knows happened
Whenever anyone pulls out of the race, you know, unless they've just been trounced in the days before, there's also - always a lot of questions about why that happened.
differences numbers people
What happened after Katrina is that people were stirred to action; there were an enormous number of contributions by people trying to make a difference. But then we forget. We've forgotten Katrina victims, we've forgotten the face of poverty.
father years two
There is nothing about resilience that I can say that my father did not first utter silently in eighteen years of living inside a two-dimensional cutout of himself.
records matter way
The way campaign funds are distributed are all a matter of record.
thinking want degrees
One of the things that I think you see sometimes in politics is a certain degree of caution. It's usually advised by consultants who don't want to see you march to the end of a limb.
children father three
I have three living children for whom this is a father who I want them to love and on whom they're going to have to rely if my disease takes a bad turn.
thinking voters consideration
I do think voters do take into consideration - particularly early state voters - take into consideration a wide range of factors, including electability, and they know that part of electability is the total package that you're presenting.
