Washington is like playing the Super Bowl, only there are no timeouts, no potty breaks, and the arena is filled with the media. In government, you have to learn to put yourself second in a big way. But I am a business person at heart. I like to be in charge.
From Desiree Rogers
How can we salute - encourage the American spirit? That means many different things to many different people.
I think it's fair to say I feel much more comfortable in business than in politics.
I'm much more comfortable in a meritocracy and in reward for good work as opposed to a political environment, where I feel like all of that can be confused.
There is an environment where someone is always looking for someone to make an error. They're always looking not for the good things, the wonderful things the president and first lady are doing, they're looking for an error or to criticize. And it's not conducive to good work.
I've always been searching. What am I going to do with all this - searching for that place where I could be me.
