I happen to have a lot of respect and affection for Barack Obama. [The] biggest political mistake that he made is after his brilliant campaign in 2008, he basically said to the millions of people who supported him, 'Thanks for getting me elected, I will take it from here'. I will not make that mistake.

If I'm elected president, trust me, we will be directly involved and working with millions of people who will tell the billionaire class: their day is over, they are not going to get it all, they're going to pay their fair share of taxes, we are going to create millions of jobs, we are going to raise the minimum wage, Wall Street will pay a tax on speculation whether they like it or not, because millions of people now will be involved in the political process.
