In a presidential campaign, you can’t lie. You can’t hide what you are and what you want. You can’t hide what kind of President you’ll be. You can’t keep on talking about nothing indefinitely and committing to nothing, you can’t keep running away from debate, masking the challenges. Nicolas Sarkozy Read Quote

I am not a man of my party. I do not talk only to socialists and union leaders. Nicolas Sarkozy Read Quote
