I have voted for a Republican for president ever since I was voting and since I was 18 years old.

In 1964, I tried to convince my grandfather, who was active in the New York City firefighters union, to vote for Barry Goldwater over Lyndon Johnson because at the time I thought his approach to limited government was right on.

We've made tremendous strides and changes in the City of New York since 1994.

The 'Libertarian' thing was a mistake on my part for saying it, but I am.

People should be respected for the strength of their convictions, and I also believe in freedom of expression.

Everybody knows I return all of my phone calls. I pick up my cell phone myself, much to the chagrin of my staff.

I'm never surprised by the insensitivity of 'The New York Times' editorial board.
