When asked for your views, by the press or others, remember that what they really want to know is the President's views.

The American people are entitled to see the president and to hear his views directly, and not to see him only through the press.

Tolerance.
If you ask me politely
Invariably I will comply
But if you try to compel me
then your demand I will deny.
As I have every right to do
You have your views and I have mine
and they are most unlikely to be
close enough so they combine.
Into a view we both agree
I’m tolerant and you are not
You see my views as heresy.
Which does nor really help a lot.
Some see your views as bigotry
and who am I to disagree.

My own views on abortion, I'm not on either pole of that and neither of the interest groups on either end of this issue would probably be comfortable with my views.

Liberals claim to want to give a hearing to other views, but then are shocked and offended to discover that there are other views.

It is just that we should be grateful, not only to those with whose views we may agree, but also to those who have expressed more superficial views; for these also contributed something, by developing before us the powers of thought.
Geological age plays the same part in our views of the duration of the universe as the Earth's orbital radius does in our views of the immensity of space.
It is not impossible to think that the minds of philosophers sometimes act like those of other mortals, and that, having once been determined by diverse circumstances to adopt certain views, they then look for and naturally find reasons to justify these views.

The 9th President
I met Nicksan, Aba and Ezema on the way yesterday;
But their faces were full of fear! And, i did not know why?
Maybe, it was because of the 9th President.
The 9th President resigned yesterday and,
The people are in shock!
But watch your lips and never be offended;
Because life is full of surprises and,
We have to accept hiw views for resigning.
Life is like the Breezy Spines and,
I am here to take care of my lover;
Because she is confused as well and,
She can't understand why the President resigned.

Peculiarity Of The Judges
Issuing statements,
The peculiarity of the judges;
But i do hope that,
You will identify the clear boundaries.
Of my views being heard and,
Of your views being noted;
But the right of association is what you need;
For, this image will seek for your welfare,
But try to fight the corruption around you.

The president said nothing about the views of government in regard to the possibility of Carolinas seceding. This however was frequently spoken of by other statesmen at the North. I think they were unanimous in this, that no army would be sent here.

To Fully Live!
freedom is not white,
it is not Christian,
it is neither liberal nor conservative....
not bound by capitalistic values,
it is not served at gunpoint
to those with differing views...
it is all colors, all faiths,
openminded and intelligent,
beyond all political views;
places human need in front of profit,
and celebrates diversity!
it is the basic right
of the living to fully live!

I have also been attacked by my opponents as someone seeking to purge university faculties of leftist professors. This is false. The first provision of the Academic Bill of Rights is that no professor should be hired or fired because of his or her political views. I have never myself called for the firing of any professor for his or her political views, nor would I.

Donkey is a beauty
You said that the donkey
Is an object of beauty.
The whole establishment
Might be against that view.
The whole beauticians
Might rise against you with rage.
You might not be adept
In valid arguments.
Yet you are right in your view
With a right to hold your view.
Atheists are as much right
As theists are in their views.
They propagate their views
For supports and applauses.
Donkeys have takers.
Horses have takers.
Neither is superior.

With so many of our fundamental rights hanging in the balance, it is not good enough to simply roll the dice, hoping a nominee has changed his past views. It's not good enough to think, 'This is the best we can expect from this president'.

Am I Humble?
Leaning towards my humble self,
We engage in conversation.
The views are expressed, the views appal,
And this admonition from the slanting person
Finishes here.
Such cautionary advice is frowned upon,
I prefer the happiness now, and the gadgets.
The gimmick or game is now to be aborted,
Like an afterthought always now fading.
Lean no more, just keep yourself,
Never take on hymns, never sing incantations,
For your health leave the sky and ground.
The advice leans too close to graciousness.
