If I had my way, we would not have gone in to Iraq in the first place.

I think we've seen voters across the country say they are ready for change. They are feeling real anxiety about the economy.

It's going to be very hard to deliver on a smarter energy policy. It's going to be hard to -- to provide health care for people who need it or make college more affordable.

I'm actually looking forward to it. If we're successful, I don't want to get ahead of myself here. Senator Clinton is a very formidable candidate.

Plenty of the pundits have suggested that this party is inalterably divided, that Senator Clinton's supporters will not support me, and that my supporters would not support her. Well, I am here tonight to tell you that I don't believe it.

The fact that we're still standing here and still moving forward towards the nomination, I think indicates the degree to which the core message of this campaign is the right one.

It is a love for this country that made my life possible. It is a belief in the American dream. That's why I'm in this race. That's what I'm fighting for.

And, so, you want to know who I am? You want to know what is me? It is a love for this country that made my life possible. Is it a belief in the American dream. That's why I'm in this race. That's what I'm fighting for.

We can go before the world's community and say, we are ready to lead again.

If you don't have health insurance, then I want to make sure you can buy health insurance that's as good as the health care I have as a member of Congress.

We have probably taken as many hits as anybody has in this presidential campaign. Senator Clinton has not. John McCain certainly has not and yet I'm still here and, you know, competitive in both North Carolina and Indiana.

We can go before the world community and say, we are ready to lead again.
