The next president can't just be driven by polls.

We are a beacon of light around the world.

If we are going to change our policy, we've got to change our politics.

I believe that what's needed in the next president is somebody who can bring the country together and overcome those divisions to actually get something done.

When we break out of the conventional thinking and we start reaching out to friend and foe alike, then I am absolutely confident that we can restore America's leadership in the world.

We are going to be the America that has made us that bright and shining light all around the world.

I want to go before the world and say America's back.

That's what we can be again.

It is time for real change.

We're going to lead with our values and our ideals by deed and by example.

When I'm President, we'll give our kids everything they need to have a fighting chance.

No American should feel like their education system isn't designed for them.

Instead of driving thousands of children who were on the right path into the shadows, we need to give those who play by the rules the opportunity to succeed.

That's the America that I'm running for President to help bring about.

We'll invest in programs that offer everything from counseling for new mothers to afterschool programs to free medical services, and job counseling for parents.

Let's not pass a law called No Child Left Behind and then leave the money behind.

We can't let this continue.

What makes the most difference in any child's education is the person standing at the front of the classroom.
