George H.W. Bush: “Used wisely, western aid can be a catalyst to democratic reform, reforms that are in the interest of all the world.”

I consider the media to be indispensable to democracy that we need an independent media to hold people like me to account. I mean, power can be very addictive and it can be corrosive, and it's important for the media to call to account…

I have always contended that. And I believe that you do not have a growing dynamic economy without the creative abilities and devotion and loyalty that immigrants bring to their country.

Strength is not empty rhetoric. It's not bluster. And in my experience, the strongest person usually isn't the loudest one in the room.

This means that people of every race, religion, ethnicity can be fully and equally American. It means that bigotry or white supremacy in any form is blasphemy against the American creed.
