My own American Dream was to serve my country as best I could and make a difference in America - and in the world.

I ran for Congress because I want to make sure others have the same chance at the dream that I had for generations to come.

I was a great dreamer of day dreams.

I've absolutely lived the American dream.

I've lived the American dream.

My dream of politics all my life has been that it is the common business, that it is something we owe to each other to understand and discuss with absolute frankness.

I got to see the American Dream unfold in my living room.

President Obama became our first African American president, and for me, it is the stuff of which dreams are made.
