Political Quotes

“I have chosen to talk about three people very briefly because, first of all, I know them quite well. I have worked with them. Second, because I think they exemplify the characteristics that American citizens would like to see in their public servants. Third, because in a way they are so different and yet they are all three so much alike in that the one word that describes each of the three of them is 'integrity.' The reason I select these three people, one is from the House, one is a Democrat in the Senate, and one is a Republican in the Senate. My purpose for selecting these three people is, therefore, to illustrate that it does not matter which body you are in or which party you are in, you can serve the American people well if you have that characteristic of integrity and you can be respected by your peers as well.”
