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

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

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.

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 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.

In the book I define conservatism, as I believe it is fit upon four categories of principle: respect for The Constitution, respect for life, less government, and personal responsibility.

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