Bill Bennett really became an idol for me. I listened to him every morning from 6 to 9 for, oh, years.

My dad thinks Obama is a socialist and all these extreme views.

I don't think Obama's a socialist or evil, I just think he's wrong and I disagree with him, he's a leftist, that's what they are in France and in Great Britain and in Canada.

I believe that this is the key, the principle itself is the key to conservatism. Because in many ways if you do not have a principled base you do not have policy and if you do not have policy in many ways you do not have an ideology.

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

I am an only child and home-schooled, so I have no siblings or classmates.
