Why would I want to run for Congress and continue to get tainted with all the things that people get tainted with as they come along the system.

Even if you're Bill Gates, you've got problems. I'm sure he would probably easily give a few billion dollars to get rid of all the problems that he has.

I came to realize that if people could make me angry they could could control me. Why should I give someone else such power over my life?

Economics is not brain surgery.

Marriage is a very sacred institution and should not be degraded by allowing every other type of relationship to be made equivalent to it.

When I entered high school I was an A-student, but not for long. I wanted the fancy clothes. I wanted to hang out with the guys. I went from being an A-student to a B-student to a C-student, but I didn't care. I was getting the high fives and the low fives and the pats on the back. I was cool.

America need a significantly changed taxation system. And the one that I've advocated is based on tithing, because I think God is a pretty fair guy. If you give me a tithe, it doesn't matter how much you make. If you've had a bumper crop, you don't owe me triple tithes. And if you've had no crops at all, you don't owe me no tithes. So there must be something inherently fair about it.
