I am interested in getting people to use the healthcare system at the right time, getting them to see the doctor early enough, before a small health problem turns serious.

Asking the government to help you for short periods of time is different than asking the government to take care of you for the rest of your life.

You can't have a university without having free speech, even though at times it makes us terribly uncomfortable. If students are not going to hear controversial ideas on college campuses, they're not going to hear them in America. I believe it's part of their education.

In every community, whether large or small, there are people who lead in their community in easy and difficult times.

The government is fully capable of delivering services. Even complex services.
