Well, I was 29 years old when I came to the United States Senate, and I have learned a lot.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Twenty-six years ago, I became the first Democratic woman elected to the Senate in her own right. I was the first, but I made sure I wasn't the only.
I've always been intrigued by the Senate, and admired many of the people who have served there.
I am a mom as well as a senator!
I'm honored to have served for 18 years as Arizona's 10th Senator - and for four terms in the House of Representatives before that.
I loved being in the Senate. That was a wonderful experience.
Over the course of 19 years on the Supreme Court, I learned some lessons about the Constitution of the United States.
I can honestly say that being a United States Senator has been the honor of my life.
I've been interested in American politics since I was eight. That was in 1968. It was an interesting year. I was a huge Eugene McCarthy supporter, so I guess he was the first senator I really knew about and cared about.
Serving in the United States Senate has been the greatest privilege of my life.
The Democrats filibustered something in the Senate when I was eight years old. I don't remember what it was on and I didn't honestly care when I was eight years old. I cared about the history and the Senate rules.
