George W. Bush: “I've never been more optimistic about the future than I am right now.”

Violence and vitriol must be purged from the public square. Members of other political parties are not our enemies; they are our fellow citizens.

Being your President was a high privilege, and the honor of a lifetime.

Today, we remember your loss, we share your sorrow and we honor the men and women that you have loved so long and so well.

I know campaigns are stressful and taxing.
