The only way to oppose a bad idea is to replace it with a good idea.

We are all the sons or daughters of immigrants - some more recent than others - but all dedicated to the triumph of an idea that serves as the touchstone of what it means to be an American. This America is the only America that we have hitherto known - if being conservative has anything to do with conserving the principles of our past, then no conservative has any business bashing legal immigration.

American society as a whole can never achieve the outer-reaches of potential, so long as it tolerates the inner cities of despair.

If we are to change America, we must change the United States Congress.

In America, we tax work, investment, employment, savings, and production, while we subsidize non-work, consumption, and debt. It's time we reverse this trend.

I think I've advanced my views with compassion and tolerance.

We don't need to bring down the rich folk to help the poor.
