Hundreds of thousands of kids now have a chance to be adopted because I worked to change our adoption and foster care system.
For 30 years, I've produced results for people.
I admire President Obama. He inherited the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression. That was a terrible time for America.
Donald Trump would send us back into recession with his tax plans that benefit the wealthiest of Americans.
I will defend Planned Parenthood. I will defend Roe v. Wade, and I will defend women's rights to make their own health care decisions.
I have met with women who toward the end of their pregnancy get the worst news one could get, that their health is in jeopardy if they continue to carry to term or that something terrible has happened or just been discovered about the pregnancy. I do not think the United States government should be stepping in and making those most personal of decisions. So you can regulate if you are doing so with the life and the health of the mother taken into account.
We celebrate our diversity, we lift people up, and we make America even greater.
We have undocumented immigrants in America who are paying more federal income tax than a billionaire. I find that just astonishing.
In America, we've been around for 240 years. We've had free and fair elections. We've accepted the outcomes when we may not have liked them. And that is what must be expected of anyone standing on a debate stage during a general election.
Donald Trump is the most dangerous person to run for president in the modern history of America.
We have places in America that really have been just forgotten.
There are places that are thriving in America that don't need very much help, and then there are places where people feel so discouraged and so left behind, like nobody cares about them. And I want to try to help there.
I'll lift up the good work that is happening and hold officers or departments that engage in unconstitutional policing accountable.
In the days ahead, I will propose more ways for more Americans to get involved in national service and give back to our communities, because every one of us has a role to play in building the future we want.
Seen in the context of Donald Trump having committed sales tax fraud in the past, which is indisputable, I think that it's reasonable for the American public to ask, did you go beyond what's lawful, maybe scandalously lawful, but lawful, and violate the law?
I have a very positive and optimistic view about what we can do together. That's why the slogan of my campaign is 'Stronger Together.' Because I think if we work together, if we overcome the divisiveness that sometimes sets Americans against one another, and instead we make some big goals - and I've set forth some big goals: Getting the economy to work for everyone, not just those at the top, making sure that we have the best education system from preschool through college, making it affordable, and so much else.
Donald Trump has spent his entire campaign offering a dog whistle to his most hateful supporters.
I want us to invest in you. I want us to invest in your future. That means jobs in infrastructure, in advanced manufacturing, innovation and technology, clean, renewable energy, and small business, because most of the new jobs will come from small business. We also have to make the economy fairer. That starts with raising the national minimum wage and also guarantee, finally, equal pay for women's work.
I have met thousands and thousands of pro-choice men and women. I have never met anyone who is pro-abortion.
I think from a moral issue, CEOs should not be making - whether it's 270 or 300 times more than their workers are making.
America can't succeed unless you succeed. That is why I am running for president of the United States.
Every day Americans and their families need a champion, a champion who will fight for them every single day. And I want to be that champion. I want to get up every single day going to work for you, standing up for you.
I know that so many of us hoped that, by electing our first black president, we had turned the page on this chapter in our history. But, despite our best efforts and our highest hopes, America's long struggle with race is far from finished.
You're going to get a lot of advice coming from many different quarters to do things that don't feel right to you, that don't reflect who you are and what your values are. So you have to be grounded in who you are and what you believe.
Historically, it is important to try to understand your adversary in order to figure out how they are thinking, what they will be doing, how they will react.
