I'd like to do policy and I'd like to do philosophy, I'd like to be able to get into the depth, into the meat of the argument - that's the kind of stuff I want to do.

I have good voice inflection, that's why I'm good on radio. But on TV, I look too big because I move my hands around a lot.

I listened to Bill Bennett and tons of other talk show hosts who talked about that and other policies and started branching out and caring about other issues in regards to politics.

Conservatism is not about the party, because the party is merely the shell. It is the inside - it's the filling that really means something.

I want the American people to understand that conservatism... is an ideology of protecting the people and the people's rights.

I got into politics when I was eight years old. Six years now. And I got involved because I started listening to talk radio. It goes back to one event. The Democrats filibustered something in the Senate when I was eight years old. I don't remember what it was on and I didn't honestly care when I was eight years old. I cared about the history and the Senate rules.

As I've been acting since I was young it's taught me to give a good speech, and, though I say so myself, I did it pretty well.
