The dinner table is a lively debate, and everybody weighs in in a different way. I like that, though.

I have the rare privilege of talking to my dad every night at 10 p.m. and hearing about what he did that day.

I just learned not to take a single thing for granted, and I think it just is extraordinary.

I think there is a generation gap. I personally look forward to, as our generation becomes the leaders, you are gonna see a change, and I think hopefully gay marriage will be a part of that country.

There has to be room for people to make mistakes and lead their own lives.

It was definitely a part of our life. I mean, my mom had both her brothers and her fiancee in Vietnam at the same time, so it wasn't just my dad's story, it was my mom's story too. And we definitely grew up listening to the stories.

I was very close to my mother, and her death, which left a gaping hole in my life, has been very difficult for me and my father in a lot of ways.

We don't want to be treated any differently, and we want to continue with our lives and our careers.

And I think we created something incredible as a Democratic group, as a platform, as an effort to make a change in the country, and I think we did change this country. And I think we will continue to, and I know that my father is not going to stop fighting.
