I'm running for president because the only way to beat George Bush is to stand up to him.
I've gotten to know John Kerry since the primaries. The reason I'm going out and working my you know what off for John Kerry is because I believe him. I believe he'll be a good president and a much better president than George Bush.
We all want the president to succeed. But the president hasn't succeeded. I think that is because he has a lack of vision and, frankly, he hasn't been truthful with the American people.
This is not so much about Scooter Libby and Karl Rove. This is about the fact that the president didn't tell us the truth when we went to Iraq, and all these guys are involved in it.
The White House wants us to have a permanent commitment to Iraq. This is an Iraqi problem. President Bush got rid of Saddam Hussein and that was a great thing, but that could have been done in a very different way.
Apparently, Governor Schwarzenegger has ripped a page from President Bush's re-election playbook, ... Rule number one in the 'Bush-Rove Guide to Running on a Record of Failure' is to demonize groups of people and use them to divide the electorate by rallying the extremists in your base. It's the only way to explain Governor Schwarzenegger's promise to veto the California marriage equality bill after pledging just last year to support equal rights and responsibilities for California's LGBT families if approved by the courts or the legislature.
This is a time for justice tempered with mercy and understanding. There is no evidence of either in Judge Roberts' career. The president should be denied this nomination.
If we can't elect people running for the city council and country commissioner and school board and state assembly, if we can't elect those people, then we're never gonna elect a president of the United States,
I came to speak with President Carter over a year and a half ago, because he did what I hope to do in Iowa tomorrow night, ... I really appreciate the lesson you have given, the path you have blazed.
Sixty percent of us got $304. Has your property taxes gone up more than $304 because the president cut cops on the beat, refused to fund special education, refused to fund ""no child left behind?
When we set this event up, ... I had absolutely no idea that we were going to have the elected president of the United States here with us today.
A strong Mexico means a strong America, and our ties must not be based on the petulance of the president of the United States.
Democrats have been fighting for energy independence years before President Bush 's first day in office, while this administration has offered only lip service, and only when its poll numbers resemble (president Richard) Nixon's.
This president cares more about corporations than he does about the people of the United States of America.. and we're gonna change that.
