Donald Trump is not an unintelligent man  (Mark Shields Quotes) John McCain has become the de facto running mate of George W. Bush  (Mark Shields Quotes) The corporations who invest in lobbyists, it pays in terms of tax loopholes, tax subsidies, all the rest. It pays. Clearly, the money has a big effect.  (Mark Shields Quotes) I have my disagreements with President Obama, but President Obama has run an amazingly scandal-free administration, not only he himself, but the people around him. He’s chosen people who have been pretty scandal-free  (Mark Shields Quotes) At a time when the public is sour on politicians, have no use for them, Bill Clinton has risen to a different level.

You can’t outsource your work; you can’t move your emergency department to Pakistan  (Mark Shields Quotes) American education will be determined by the quality of American public education, and that’s public schools that are available.  (Mark Shields Quotes) I do look upon the secretary of education’s primary responsibility as the quality of education that - and improving the education that every child in American public schools receives.  (Mark Shields Quotes) The lobbying over China most favored nation trading status was disgusting. There’s no way in hell that MFN would have passed in 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 2000 if all these companies hadn’t come in flooding and making campaign contributions and ask for people’s support. That drove the debate. Every year was the allure of corporate dollars flooding into members’ bank accounts.  (Mark Shields Quotes) There is no tougher job in America than being a cop on the beat in a major city in this country, big and brawling.  (Mark Shields Quotes) Whether it’s her [ Hillary Clinton] guarded privacy or whatever else, I mean, there has got to be some sense that this is a human being that I can identify.  (Mark Shields Quotes) I’m a little nervous about public funding. It’s better than what we got now.  (Mark Shields Quotes) The economy of the United States gross domestic product doubled from 1996 to 2015, doubled, more than, $8.8 trillion to $17.1 trillion. And the median household income went down  (Mark Shields Quotes) From 1976, Judy to 1996, we had six presidential elections. And it was run under the Campaign Finance Reform Act of 1974. In all six of them, every candidate agreed to limits of what he could collect in contributions and what he could spend in seeking a nomination. And they all abided by it.  (Mark Shields Quotes) By a 2-1 margin, voters believe that Donald Trump would change business as usual in Washington, but by almost as large a margin, they believe that Hillary Clinton would be better in a crisis and less of a decisive margin she cares about people like them.  (Mark Shields Quotes) 90 percent of American schoolchildren are in public schools. And the emphasis on private schools and charter schools and parochial schools is not unimportant.  (Mark Shields Quotes) The Republicans, they are in the danger of rooting for the country to fail. They look bad that way, I mean, and I want to say to them, cheer up, Republicans. Eventually, things will get worse.  (Mark Shields Quotes) Big money buys access in Washington, and access purchases influence. It is as simple as that. And they have basically given a green light, a further green light, after Citizens United, to the biggest money to have the bigger voice in our politics, and to sound out and drown out the voice of just ordinary citizens.  (Mark Shields Quotes) Human trafficking is a human tragedy. It’s an outrage against any decent people.  (Mark Shields Quotes) The measure of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much, but whether, as Franklin Roosevelt said, we provide enough for those who have too little.  (Mark Shields Quotes) Ronald Reagan four times accepted the limits in contributions of what he could take, what he could spend, and the public funding for the general elections. So I just think the idea that it didn’t work, and didn’t work - it did work. It worked brilliantly.  (Mark Shields Quotes) You’ve got people who didn’t serve with John Kerry saying they did serve with John Kerry in the boat. With George Bush, we can’t find anybody who did serve with him  (Mark Shields Quotes) What you have is two men seeking the White House; they’re both products of prominent New England families. They both went to private boarding schools. They both went to a prestigious university  (Mark Shields Quotes) Since the election, since the formation of a government, the death in Iraq has increased. The United States stands by, helpless to do anything about it. That’s the reality, not George Bush’s revisionist history!  (Mark Shields Quotes) In the 2004 presidential election, we saw a wonderful example of citizens making contributions. In fact, individual giving to both the Kerry and Bush campaigns was the highest in our nation’s history  (Mark Shields Quotes) George Bush says what John Kerry did was noble. Yet he sees him being savaged by his own supporters  (Mark Shields Quotes) Sometimes, you just let the country have its way, and you don’t try to determine the shape of the country. You sort of modestly step back and let the country figure out what it believes  (Mark Shields Quotes) I didn’t realize the president was such an historian  (Mark Shields Quotes) You really have one bite at the apple  (Mark Shields Quotes) Let’s not pretend that all of a sudden, this is some new system  (Mark Shields Quotes)
