I stay away from issues.
I've been called a lot of things.
I loved campaigning for Obama.
Puritanism was a youthful, vigorous movement.
I don't like stereotypes - no kind of stereotypes.
What I don't like is talking points.
I was exposed to jazz early on.
I do not favor the gag order.
Marriage is no substitute for political experience.
My family background was deeply Christian.
The studied, unquestioning pace of my family irritated me.
I really appreciate the British part of my family.
The financial costs of family breakdown are incredibly high.
The family name hasn't fostered my prospects - ever.
The family has a social function and so it should be sustained.
Washington has to become an ally of business, not the opposition of business.
Business and the state have a common interest; not an adversarial interest.
Maybe we all change over time.
I hope Mr. Obama has success.
So that's the dissenter's hope: that they are writing not for today but for tomorrow.
There is no reason to repeat bad history.
