Whoever is president, my first priority is the same - as always. I look for what's best for West Virginia and the nation as a whole.

I can assure you that my wife and I - every penny of income we've ever had, our taxes were paid in West Virginia.

I don't know anyone in the hunting or sporting arena that goes out with an assault rifle.

The time has come to make the difficult decision. Charity begins at home. We can no longer afford to rebuild Afghanistan and America. We must choose. And I choose America.

Come to West Virginia and we'll show you how to live... how to treat people. We're open for business. West Virginia is truly on the move.

The work completed during the special session was just the beginning. During those six days we lit a spark that will positively impact the lives of our children and grandchildren, but the full fire is yet to come.

I strongly believe that every American should always be rooting for our president to do well, no matter which political party that he or she might belong to.
