I think that the government of [Nicolas] Maduro has argued to stage a coup in Venezuela, that this is obviously a coup against the country's democratic institutions.

Every single one of us is the descendant of a go-getter. Of dreamers and of believers.

The American dream is not about how much money you make or how many buildings have your name on it.

I believe that every single human being is entitled to the protection of our laws, whether they can vote or not. Whether they can speak or not. Whether they can hire a lawyer or not. Whether they have a birth certificate or not. And I think future generations will look back at this history of our country and call us barbarians for murdering millions of babies who we never gave them a chance to live.

A sense that with the blessings that God bestowed upon this land, came the responsibility to make the world a better place.

This president [Barack Obama] is undermining the constitutional basis of this government. This president is undermining our military. He is undermining our standing in the world....The damage he has done to America is extraordinary.

After all, the U.S. Senate already has one Arlen Specter too many.
