“I have been thinking that I would make a proposition to my Republican friends.”

I believe in the forgiveness of sin and the redemption of ignorance.

Ignorance is stubborn and prejudice is hard.

On the plains of hesitation lie the blackened bones of countless millions who at the dawn of victory lay down to rest, and in resting died.

In America any boy may become President, and I suppose it’s just one of the risks he takes.
