I Was Always The Front Man For

I Respect People Who Are Willing To Deal With Everything That Comes With Being A Politician, But I'm Not Willing To Deal With Half The Country Rooting For You To Fail. I'm A Singer; I Deal With Enough. But At Least Half The Country's Not Trying To Destroy Me.

Even If You Can Sing Or Even If You Can Write A Song, It Takes A Lot Of Determination, It Takes Some Kind Of Thick Skin, Because You Got To Persevere Despite The Fact That People Tell You You Shouldn't Do This Or You Shouldn't Do That Or You're Not Good Enough Or Your Style's Too Different. I've Heard All Of That Stuff.

We Should Care About What Is Going On In The World.

Well, I Was Always A Bit Of A Political Junkie. Even As A Kid I Would Read Biographies Of Presidents And Of Civil Rights Leaders Like Martin Luther King And Frederick Douglass And Booker T. Washington.

We're Just Ordinary People. We Don't Know Which Way To Go.
