A dictator bent on rebuilding an empire will never erase a people’s love for liberty. Brutality will never grind down their will to be free.

That's the magic of America. It's all around us.

And quite frankly, I don't see much of a distinction beyond that.

I’m especially honored to share the stage with Brittney, and Jerdan, and Nathan, and Margrit Katherine. I love those barrettes in your hair, man. I tell you what — and look at her; she looks like she’s nineteen years old, sitting there with her — like a little lady with her legs crossed.
