If I am elected President, the Castro regime will have no reason to doubt our unwavering commitment to your cause. The regime will feel the full weight of American resolve.

The largest portion of our state budget is Health and Human Services. It will grow by approximately $500 million. A half a billion dollars is a very big number.

I don't like to have the federal government start pushing its weight deeper and deeper into our schools. Let the states and localities do that.

President Obama promised to begin to slow the rise of the oceans and heal the planet. My promise... is to help you and your family.

If a society takes it upon itself to prescribe and proscribe certain streams of belief - to prohibit certain less-favored strains of conscience - it may be the non-believer who is among the first to be condemned. A coercive monopoly of belief threatens everyone, whether we are talking about those who search the philosophies of men or follow the words of God.

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.
