Quote

I am an elected official; I was not elected by the Right.

The string of disqualification cases were filed against me when I was still contemplating a run for the presidency by people whose motives were suspect at best. Powerful groups with personal agenda are behind these cases. But I am not afraid. Not when the people are behind me.

I have won elections and I have lost elections.

I ran for public office to do something good.

I'm not one of the people who have to be in public office.

I am constitutionally competent to contest the elections.

You don't choose your public; your public chooses you.
