Leaders Have To Lead.

Guess What? I Just Went To A Wedding Of A Friend Of Mine Who Happens To Be Gay.

If I Were President, I Would Want To Spend A Lot Of Time Going To The Legislatures And Telling Them About Best Practices, Whether It's About Fighting Poverty, Whether It's About Educating Kids. The States Are The Laboratories Where We Can See What Works. And I Think Presidents Can Have A Much Better Relationship With Legislatures.

I'm A Change Agent. And What We're Beginning To See Is A Lot Of The Establish People, One More Time, Trying To Stop Me.

Do You Think That I Like To Have To Fight The Leaders In My Own Party Over This Or That? Of Course Not. There's No Joy In That. But John Kennedy May Have Said It Best - Sometimes My Party Asks Too Much.

We've Got To Listen To Other People's Voices, Respect Them, But Keep In Mind, And I Believe In Terms Of The Things That I've Read In My Lifetime, The Lord Is Not Picking Us. But Because Of How We Respect Human Rights, Because That We Are A Good Force In The World, He Wants America To Be Strong.
