I bring a lot of passion to my life and my politics - I don't mind saying there is a very strong Latin component to it.

There is always risk involved. You can't be a capitalist only when there are investment profits but then a socialist when you experience losses.

I'm a daughter of the middle class with a strong sense of social mobility and individualism, like the waves of immigrants, like my Spanish grandparents, who made Argentina.

I was raised to believe that America was a force for good in the world and that it should take its leadership role seriously.

I joined the Marines, passed Special Forces selection, and became a young leader in the military.

If anybody ran a business like that they would be out of business quickly, and Barack Obama's leadership is driving this business, the United States of America, toward a fiscal cliff.

America must not abdicate its global leadership role in the climate crisis to countries like China.
