It is embarrassing the proverb

 It is embarrassing, the things he's said and the things he's subsequently done, and it illustrates the wider point that for any political party, including ours, to be dependent on big private donors is not acceptable and we do need to change the system to have a cap on donations.

 I believe some of the trinkets and some of the things offered are either embarrassing or they're silly or they really miss the point, ... And the marketplace has to sort that out. I would hope there are enough common-sense donors out there that won't buy that kind of material or encourage it, but to the extent they do, it's the American way.

 Considerable assistance from donors, including debt relief, will be needed in the early years. That is inevitable because there are things that government needs to do: infrastructure has to be built, and so on.

 It is simply the truth that the political system that I am part of has degenerated to the point that it needs fundamental change,

 This change in our party has to get faster. It must go wider and deeper.

 It was borderline embarrassing. We're definitely looking for some kind of redemption to change things from last year. Everyone's still a little angry about that one, you know, ending your season like that.

 That's why I am running, because I want to change the party, ... If you want to change things, support me, and I will fight with all my strength.
