That's the trouble with a politician's life-somebody is always interrupting it with an election.
I want to explain to everyone that during election season, a politician is always short of time. We are thankful to any politician who takes out time for an interview.
I was always causing trouble in school. Doing impressions of Bart Simpson, interrupting class - I liked the attention and entertaining people.
A politician thinks of the next election; a statement of the next generation. A politician looks for the success of his party; a statesman for that of his country. The statesman wishes to steer, while the politician is satisfied to drift.
It's very hard to write about that which is always beautiful and pleasant and good. You don't get anywhere with it. There's no friction in it. There's no trouble. You have to have trouble. Somebody's got to get in trouble, or no one wants to read it.

No politician is perfect. But in every election in your life, there will be one choice that is better than the others. Go out and vote for that one.
If the roads are in trouble, if bridges are in trouble, and if schools are in trouble, it's because somebody in Washington wanted to pay for something else.

This is an election year, and I think we're in desperate trouble and it's time for people to speak up and not pipe down. It's a real conflict for me when I go to a concert and find out somebody in the audience is a Republican or fundamental Christian. It can cloud my enjoyment. I'd rather not know.
The difference between a politician and a statesman is that a politician thinks about the next election while the statesman think about the next generation
Bill Clinton was a brilliant politician. If President Obama was a brilliant politician he would have come out before the election and said 'Hey we're gonna cut taxes, grow the economy, what I'm doing's not working, and we're gonna change course' like Clinton did.
There's always trouble in the Middle East. I can't recall any time in my life when there hasn't been trouble there.
For a politician, the long term is between now and the next election.
