I'm hoping that the administration and other thought leaders will succeed eventually in bringing the country back to the older idea that the American dream is having a career, getting a job, and getting involved in it, and doing well. That was the core of the good life.

I'm optimistic about the country; I'm optimistic about the American people.

The Americans are optimistic by their nature. And they are hopeful.

It's really an optimistic show. I think most of the people in this country are optimistic, too.

I have a real sense of optimism that we are revolutionizing the way we do politics in this country.

I see success as bringing some confidence back to the American people that despite our differences, we can find some ways to move forward.

We're in a period of revolutionary change. I'm optimistic. One's self changes, and then the world changes. It's going to begin internally, not externally.

I hope I'm exactly what America is looking for, I don't know, I'm just going to be myself and hope that they love it. That's all I can do.

My hope is that we continue to do an even better job in terms of our nation's energy policy, so that we may even further reduce our reliance on foreign sources of oil and take better care of our environment in the process.

Well, optimism's a good thing. It - makes people go out and - you know, start businesses and spend and do whatever is necessary to get the economy going.
