Quote

As you know, I'm all about victory for the underdog.

Success is the American Dream. And that success is not something to be ashamed of, or to demonize.

I love stories about underdogs.

With but few exceptions, it is always the underdog who wins through sheer willpower.

A lot of America's success is because we're an open society and haven't brought dogma or religious influence into the American political process.

I'm always drawn to the underdogs, to the people whose stories don't get told.

The fact of being an underdog changes people in ways that we often fail to appreciate. It opens doors and creates opportunities and enlightens and permits things that might otherwise have seemed unthinkable.

I always feel that there are no final victories and no final defeats. But it's true that America is in a hole right now. There are a lot of dead fish in the water.

I love being the underdog.

There are some defeats more triumphant than victories.
