What I Would Say About Me Is:

I Am Straight Forward; I Am Not Manipulative; I Am Not Two-faced. And I Think That That Has Served Me Well In All Of My Roles, Particularly As A Diplomat, Because People Knew If I Said Something, I Meant It. If I Said No, I Meant No, And If I Said We Could Make This Work, We Would Make It Work.

If You're Trying To Get Something Done, There Will Always Be People Who Don't Want To See You Get Something Done, Or Who Have A Stake In The Status Quo. And If They Approach That Through Ad Hominem Criticism Of You, You've Got To Have Enough Confidence And Thickness Of Skin To Be Able To Endure.

It Is Manifestly In The Interest Of The United States To Deal With The Very Real Threat That Climate Change Poses. And That's Why President Obama Has Worked So Hard To Reduce Our Own Emissions And To Lead Internationally In Forging The Paris Climate Agreement.

If You Want Change, You Have To Make It. If We Want Progress We Have To Drive It.

I Am Very Aware Of Being Black And Female Because That's What I Am.
