The next president of the United States needs to figure one thing out quickly - how to be commander in chief. And I think I could do that.

The legal system in Afghanistan is very immature and porous.

What's going on in the Senate is kind of a politics of escalation. We're getting sort of like the Mideast: pay back everybody when you're in charge.

We’re not generating enough angry white guys to stay in business for the long term.

My advice is if we can't replace Obamacare by ourselves, to go to the Democrats and say this. 10% of the sick people in this country drive 90 percent of the cost for all of us. Let's take those 10 percent of really sick people, put them in a federal managed care system so they'll get better outcomes, and save the private sector market if we can't do this by ourselves. That's a good place to start.

I'm not going to throw my state under the bus. That's never going to happen.

In my view, Democrats and Republicans work together too little, and I would try to change that if I got to be president. And when it came to radical Islam, I would go after them before they come back here again.
