I want a kinder and gentler nation. It's the president who defines the character of America. I'm a quiet man, but I hear the quiet people others don't. The ones who raise the family, pay the taxes, meet the mortgage. And I hear them, and I am moved. The president. The heart, the soul, the conscience of the nation.
