I am the government.

I'm a public servant. And I work for the American people.

You're feeling the responsibility for hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of people on your shoulder in a way that I couldn't feel as lieutenant governor.

I work a seventeen hour day, and I'm personally responsible for 108 staff members in the embassy.

I'm a civilian, a citizen.

I am a citizen of the world.

I'm, you know, having begun my public service in state government. I very much respect the authority of states to make the decisions to provide for its citizen - the safety and welfare of its citizens.

I'm have one of the most, if not the most, moderate voting records in Congress in the Florida delegation.

I'm doing a good job in Washington.
