In order to secure our unlimited future, we need a leader who understands the moral case for free enterprise.
I am not a Hispanic candidate. I am an American candidate who happens to be of Hispanic heritage, who understands the culture, who has worked the border and has a unique understanding of those issues. But rest assured my job is to represent all Americans as a U.S. senator.
I wish for a world where everyone understands that discomfort is the price of legendary. And fear is just growth coming to get you.
All countries have poor people. Yet it's a very rare country which understands the indignities of poverty, while education systems maintain the status quo.

Never assume that the guy understands that you and he have a relationship.
Good candidates can arrive at the binary search tree as the right path in a few minutes, and then take 10-15 minutes working through the rest of the problem and the other roadblocks I toss out. But occasionally I get a candidate who 'intuitively understands' trees and can visualize the problem I'm presenting.

My wife is used to Formula One, and she understands the life.
My label understands that I am really attached to Malaysia, that I come home a lot.

Any customer of government - whether it's with education, taxes, housing, or health care - understands the frustrations when they have a bad experience. They're stuck and can't go anywhere else.
