It must bring sides together." ― Jesse Jackson Topic(s): Leadership More From Jesse Jackson "Black men of integrity cannot make a deal with a politician and leave out the poor of the nation, all God’s children." "A man who cannot be enticed by money or intimidated by the threat of jail or death has two of the strongest weapons that anyone has to offer." "People internalize, from the jail to student loan debt, to credit card debt, to unemployment to the whole collective. It manifests itself in many ways, in people’s home lives, domestic stuff." More In Leadership "The problem is, is that President Bush and the Republican leadership in the Congress have resisted attempts to increase dramatically our fuel economy standards over the last five years."― Ed Markey "We believe. We believe in our destiny as a nation. We believe we have been called to do good, to spread the blessings of liberty and encourage the sense of trust upon which free societies depend."― Tony Snow "We must recognize that as the dominant power in the world we have a special responsibility. In addition to protecting our national interests, we must take the leadership in protecting the common interests of humanity."― George Soros
