I congratulate him on the victory he has won and the extraordinary
race he has run. I endorse him, and throw my full support behind
him. And I ask all of you to join me in working as hard for
Barack Obama as you have for me...So today, I am standing with
Senator Obama to say: Yes we can...We will make history together
as we write the next chapter in Americas story.
Hillary Clinton
Backing Barack Obama for US president and
quitting the presidential race, June 7, 2008. |
I regret that if my referencing that moment of trauma for
our entire nation and in particular the Kennedy family was in
any way offensive. I certainly had no intention of that whatsoever.
Hillary Clinton
Apology for her reference to Bobby Kennedy
assassination during her campaign to win Democratic presidential
nomination. |
My husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he
won the California primary somewhere in the middle of June,
right? We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June
in California. I don't understand it.
Hillary Clinton
Telling editorial board of Sioux Falls
Argus Leader newspaper she did not understand calls for her
to quit, May 23, 2008.. Critics said her reference to Bobby
Kennedy was distasteful, taking into account fears of a possible
attempt to assassinate Barack Obama. Later she apologized for
the reference. |
I am more determined than ever to carry on this campaign until
everyone has had a chance to make their voices heard.
Hillary Clinton
Celebrating her win in West Virginia, May
13, 2008. |
I think I am better prepared and able to take on Senator McCain
- apparently Democrats in Pennsylvania agree with that.

I want the Iranians to know that if I'm the president, we
will attack Iran
In the next 10 years, during which they
might foolishly consider launching an attack on Israel, we would
be able to totally obliterate them.
Hillary Clinton
Asked by Chris Cuomo on ABC News' Good
Morning America about what she would do as president if Iran
attacked Israel with nuclear weapons. |
Let me tell you something, when it comes to finishing a fight,
Rocky and I have a lot in common. I never quit. I never give
up. And neither do the American people.
Hillary Clinton
Speaking in Philadelphia, April 1, 2008. |
Lifting whole passages from someone else's speeches is not
change you can believe in, it's change you can Xerox.
Hillary Clinton
Accusing Barack Obama of plagiarism at
debate in Texas, where audience booed, February 21, 2008. |
You know, there's a great saying in Texas you've all
heard it all hat and no cattle. Well, after seven years
of George Bush, we need a lot less hat and a lot more cattle.
Hillary Clinton
Campaign speech in El Paso, February 12,
2008. |
It did take a Clinton to clean up after the first Bush, and
I think it might take another one to clean up after the second
Bush.

CNN debate between Clinton and Barack Obama.
January 31, 2008. |
I come here tonight with a very, very full heart, and I want
especially to thank New Hampshire. Over the last week, I listened
to you and in the process I found my own voice. I felt like
we all spoke from our hearts and I am so gratified that you
responded.
Let's give America the kind of comeback that New Hampshire has
just given me.
Hillary Clinton
Victory speech, after winning New Hampshire
primary, January 8, 2008. |
It's not easy, it's not easy, and I couldn't do it if I just
didn't passionately believe it was the right thing to do. I
have so many opportunities for this country. I don't want to
see us all fall back.
This is very personal for me. It's not just political, it's
not just public I see what's happening. We have to reverse
it.
Some people think elections are a game it's about who's
up and who's down. It's about our country's future, it's about
our kids' future it's really about all of us together.
Hillary Clinton
Becoming emotional and teary-eyed as she

to have universal healthcare.

No matter what you think about the Iraq war, there is one
thing we can all agree on for the next days - we have to salute
the courage and bravery of those who are risking their lives
to vote and those brave Iraqi and American soldiers fighting
to protect their right to vote.
Hillary Clinton

For centuries, New York has served as the gateway for millions
of people from all over the world in search of the American
dream. It only makes sense that it would now serve as a gateway
for the world's greatest athletes.

Why did you lie to me?'

Every nation has to either be with us, or against us. Those
who harbor terrorists, or who finance them, are going to pay
a price.
