Quote

I started out being a really, really liberal Democrat.

I always thought of myself as a moderate liberal, a fighter for peace and justice. I never thought of myself as being all that far out.

I've been a Democrat all my life.

I've always been a liberal and I've always had strong socialist leanings.

Well, I've been a Republican for all of my voting life.

But I came from a conservative Republican background.

I just am a Democrat. I could never, never be a Republican.

I thought I was really a radical, political person, which of course I am not.
