For the first half of my adult life, I was a Democrat.

The Bush administration is the most diverse in history because the president fills jobs on the basis of a person's capabilities and qualifications, not on the color of his or her skin.

They take pride in their schools. They begin to participate, where, when they are renters, they don't do that. So what we're doing by this program is strengthening America.

But I do know this: that the two and a half years that I've been at HUD, I am absolutely convinced that some of the best workers in the world are in Federal Government.

I was soon drawn to the Republican Party because I realized that it truly, not just rhetorically, believed in equality.

And what most people don't understand is the bulk of business in this country is small business.

The other part of outsourcing is this: it simply says where the work can be done outside better than it can be done inside, we should do it.
