I think anybody who wants to be president has to be a politician, but I would like to find somebody who's coming from a loving place instead of a political place.
How rude would I be, walking around and saying: 'Hello. I'm Eleanor Mondale. My father was vice president of the United States. Treat me differently.
President Reagan is a lot like E.T. He's cute, he's lovable, and he knows nothing about how Americans live.
Right now the best way that I can impact the world is through entertainment. One day, and that day will come, I can impact the world through politics. The great news is that I am American, therefore I can become President. But don't forget: I am G.I. Joe.
I was eleventh-grade class president. That was the first elective office I held until I came into Congress.
Hillary Clinton's got bad judgment, and honestly, so bad that she should never be president of the United States.
To be president of America, you need tremendous stamina.
Control your time. If you're working off your in-box, you're working off the priorities of others. Be sure the staff is working on what you move to them from the President, or the President will be reacting, not leading.
I deserved better than to be bullshitted by the vice president.
Reconciliation is what takes place, of course, at higher levels. President Karzai has been very clear about the red lines for reconciliation, accept the constitution, lay down their weapons, cut their ties with al Qaeda and essentially become productive or at least participating members of society in that regard.
President Obama seems to understand the Constitution as a 'set of suggestions.'
The 2016 presidential campaign is heating up. Can you feel the indifference, the apathy?
Herman Cain has suspended his presidential campaign, but he has asked the Secret Service if they could continue to provide him protection, at least until his wife cools off.
The first presidential debate was down in Florida. Residents spent all day putting plywood on their televisions.
President Obama is sending troops back to Iraq. He said, 'Don't worry, we should not be there any longer than a Kardashian marriage.'
Jeb Bush may run for President. Bush presidencies are like 'Caddyshack' movies. They should have stopped with one.
I think there's some generational difference between some of the older members of the press and this younger president [Bill Clinton]. I think the older members are not quite on the same wave length, and in general. I think it's been very devastating to the president.
Trump is not just unlike a Republican, he's unlike a presidential candidate. The whole elaborate presidential process is designed to screen out people like Donald Trump. And that process broke down in ways quite unlike anything in the recent experience of the United States.
I'd read a lot of thrillers about politicians and presidents, but never one where you flip the stereotypes and make good people bad and bad people good.
I think those autoworkers whose industry would have collapsed if the president hadn't intervened are certainly better off.
The last time I was in a gym, Dukakis was running for president.
So I just always drew. But never took that as a career path. I ended up in the computer business, and found myself as the vice president of sales and marketing for a computer accessories company.
I never had ambition to become president of the state or to accomplish more than men.
I'd pick a young white guy over an old white guy for president anytime because the younger guy is more likely to have been influenced by the great social changes of the '60s and '70s.
If Donald Trump governs the way he campaigned, it'll be a disastrous presidency. This is a chance for him to be magnanimous, humble. To work across the aisle. If that's the kind of president we have, that's fine. But if not, I want our DNC chair, I want Democratic senators and Congresspeople, citizens, we need to resist.
