• H. L. Mencken once said that nobody ever went broke underestimating the taste of the American public. That is not true.

There are very few products which do not benefit from being given a first class ticket through life.

But I do think you just have to go into politics with the attitude that you're going to speak clearly and authentically about what you see the country needs...and seek out whatever possible partners you can, even in the other party. I've looked at successful presidents going back. Some of our most successful governed through periods when their party was in charge, and when the other party was in charge. There's no magic formula.

'You really need to work on that.
