I leave CNN with the utmost respect, love and admiration for the company and everyone who works here. This has been my family and shared endeavor for the past 27 years, and I am forever grateful and proud of all that we have accomplished.

I respect the president. He and I have a difference of opinion on how to help the country we both love. But the question each of us wants the voters to answer is who will be the better president, not who is the better American.

New York gave me hell for that 'Purple Swag,' man. They didn't respect me until 'Peso.'

I'm getting my respect as a video director. The fashion industry respects me and knows who I am.

I'm not religious, but I believe that what I have is a gift, and I respect it and live up to it.
