If you look at the world and look at the problems, its usually old people usually old men not getting out of the way, he contended. Its important for political leaders to try and remind themselves that you are there to do a job, but you are not there for life. You are not there in order to prop up your own sense of self importance or your own power.

When he introduced Pelosi at our Illinois Governors' Day event, he said he was glad the Democrats had not sent a man to do a woman's job.
Nancy used the term "Moscow Mitch" several times during her keynote speech.
