I am running against no one. I'd like to be President. I think my experience and my record are greater than any other candidate or any other of the unannounced candidates.

One of the basic causes for all the trouble in the world today is that people talk too much and think too little. They act impulsively without thinking. I always try to think before I talk.

My basic rule is to speak slowly and simply so that my audience has an opportunity to follow and think about what I am saying.

The American people are sick and tired of being afraid to speak their minds lest they be politically smeared as 'Communists' or 'Fascists' by their opponents. Freedom of speech is not what it used to be in America. It has been so abused by some that it is not exercised by others.
