I have been working or attending school full time since I was 13.
I think every election is sui generis. I think it starts with where we are in the country at this time, with what Americans are thinking, feeling and hoping, and it proceeds from there. And it is always about the future.
When I traveled as secretary of state, I was deluged with thick briefing books full of information about the politics, economy, and culture of each destination, so those took up most of my reading time.
[Donald Trump] even said, well, you know, if there were nuclear war in East Asia, well, you know, that's fine have a good time, folks.
Americans have fought their way back from tough economic times, but the deck is still stacked in favor of those at the top,
The last time I actually drove a car myself was 1996.
The first time I spoke to a group this large was at my college commencement in 1969.
I really get up every day and try to deal with the problems that are in front of me, and I don't really worry about history. That will work itself out over time.
Cooking, decorating, diet/self-help and gardening books are guilty pleasures and useful time fillers.
With respect to Iraq, I did favour the continuity of American forces to work with the new Maliki government. They had enormous needs for intelligence, for training on everything from airplanes to more sophisticated ground equipment and the like.
There is nothing fast or easy about diplomacy. I have no illusions about that.
It's impossible to know what happens in the fog of war.
If you're not comfortable with public speaking - and nobody starts out comfortable; you have to learn how to be comfortable - practice. I cannot overstate the importance of practicing. Get some close friends or family members to help evaluate you, or somebody at work that you trust.
We need more good jobs that reward hard work with rising wages, dignity, and a ladder to a better life.
