Ich hatte keine Erfolge, außer zu überleben. Aber das ist in der Gemeinschaft, aus der ich gekommen bin, nicht genug, weil jeder es tat. Ich war also nicht auf Amerika vorbereitet, wo alle mit guten Zähnen, guter Kleidung und gutem Essen glühen.

In order to lead a country or a company, you've got to get everybody on the same page and you've got to be able to have a vision of where you're going. America can't have a vision of health care for everybody, green economy, regulations - can't have a bunch of piece-meal activities. It's got to have a vision.
