If we become one of those societies that attack success, why not come as certain there will be a lot less success? And that's not who we are.

Live for a purpose greater than yourself.

Those who have come to the United States illegally should not be given amnesty or an easier path to citizenship over those already in line.

It was not my desire to go off and serve in Vietnam.

I like the fact that most of the cars I see are Detroit-made automobiles. I drive a Mustang and a Chevy pickup truck. Ann drives a couple of Cadillacs, actually.

On one of the most personal matters of our lives, our health care, President Obama would turn decision making over to government bureaucrats. He forced through Obama-care and I will repeal it.
