I've seen firsthand that being president doesn't change who you are. It reveals who you are.

It wasn't so long ago that I was a working mom myself. And I know that sometimes, much as we all hate to admit it, it's just easier to park the kids in front of the TV for a few hours, so we can pay the bills or do the laundry or just have some peace and quiet for a change.

Until we totally change the way we elect our leaders, until we remove private money from public campaigns, lying will be the de facto method of governance in this country.

Any revival in which I am involved is liable to change.

Only in growth, reform, and change, paradoxically enough, is true security to be found.
