Put Yourself In The Path Of Lightning.

Change Is Never Fast Enough To Satisfy Us. I Still Hear Too Many Stories Of Women Who Go Back To Work Too Soon, But I Do Believe That We Have Been Able To Change The Paradigm In Attitudes Towards Family Leave In That It's No Longer A Nice Thing To Do For Women, It's A Must Do For Competitiveness, And That's A Big Change Over The Last Seven Years. Changing It Into An Economic Issue Is A Big Sea Change In The Last Seven Years.

I Think That In A Country As Successful As Ours, We Still Have A Long Way To Go In Terms Of Parity For Women, Whether It’s Equal Pay In The Workforce Or A Whole Host Of Other Issues.

People Are Struggling. They're Trying To Make Ends Meet, And They're Looking For Washington To Deliver For Them. And They Don't Feel That That's Been Happening As Quickly As It Should. We Share That Frustration. There's No One More Frustrated Than President Obama.

If Left Unchecked, Global Change Will Create Violent Conflict, Torrential Storms, Shrinking Coastlines, And Irreversible Catastrophe.

I Just Worry A Lot. I'm A Worrier. Michelle And Barack Are Really Dear To Me. I Mean, I Love Them. And I Don't Want To See Them Get Hurt. Just The Nature Of Politics Is Hurtful. So Every Time They Are Hurt, I Get Hurt. It's A Lot To Ask Of People, And It's A Lot To See Your Friends Go Through. It's Hard Not To Get Emotional.
