- We're going to need to absorb some pain. The Republicans want to pile all the pain on people who can least afford it and the middle class and Democrats under his leadership want to make sure that we can address deficit reduction and continue to make investments and shared sacrifice is going to be imperative in order to be able to do that.

- We're in a leadership position in sports. People look up to the National Football League.
- Roger Goodell on Leadership

- Debbie Wasserman Schultz on Leadership
