Not a chance. I don't know what Sarah (Palen)'s doing, (but) I have no desire to be president of the United States, zero desire. I don't think that I would be electable.

I told you, God is not coy. He's more likely to hit you across the forehead with a two-by-four than whisper in your ear

America comes with both rights and responsibilities. You have, for example, the right to free speech, but you have the responsibility to not yell 'fire' in a crowded theater. If you don't live up to that responsibility, you face certain consequences. It's a simple but effective formula. Unfortunately, tenured professors are completely insulated from it. They can scream fire in their classrooms all they want - and then hide behind their tenure if anyone questions them on it.

What the media is doing is, again, just going after the Democrats and the Republicans and making it about politics instead of principles.

I want you [Sarah Palin] to know you have my support. But please look into protection for your family. An attempt on you could bring the republic down.

Just do this one thing: promise yourself you'll never deal underhanded to anybody. You'll be honest in all of your business dealings. That is hard. Conquer that one. Demand it of yourself. Demand a higher standard for yourself and your children and do it.

I say on the air all time, "if you take what I say as gospel, you're an idiot."
