I'm not familiar precisely with what I said, but I'll stand by what I said, whatever it was.

We are a nation of immigrants. We are the children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren of the ones who wanted a better life, the driven ones, the ones who woke up at night hearing that voice telling them that life in that place called America could be better.

In order to be able to fulfill our role in the world, America must be strong. America must lead. And for that to happen, we have to strengthen our economy here at home.

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.

I actually like jokes as well as things that are sort of fun.

I should tell my story. I'm also unemployed ... I'm networking. I have my sight on a particular job.

I like American cars. And I would do nothing to hurt the U.S. auto industry.
