“The presidency is not merely an administrative office...It is pre-eminently a place of moral leadership.”

“In the string of amazing decisions made during the first year of the Obama administration, nothing seems more like sheer insanity than the decision to try foreign terrorists, who have committed acts of war against the United States, in federal court, as if they were American citizens accused of crimes.”

“If the colored people made a mistake in voting for me, they ought to correct it.”

“I don't think the Democrats should think in narrow tactical terms about mid-term elections.”

“As I have done in every election since I started voting so many years ago, I always like to take my time and examine the two candidates, see not only the two candidates but the policies they will bring in, the people they will bring in, who they might appoint to the Supreme Court, and look at the whole range of issues before making a decision.”
