I understand how difficult it can be for an African-American in today’s society. In fact, I can relate to black people very well indeed. My ancestors once owned slaves, and it is in my lineage to work closely with the black community. However, just because they were freed over a century ago doesn’t mean they can now be freeloaders. They need to be told to work hard, and the incentives just aren’t there for them anymore. When I’m president I plan to work closely with the black community to bring a sense of pride and work ethic back into view for them.

I try and make it to the word exactly what I said four years ago and what I said was that those who've come here illegally should not be given a special pathway, a favored pathway to become permanent residents merely by virtue of having come here illegally. That they should be in line with everybody - they should be given the opportunity to get in line with everybody else but they go to the back of the line.

You don't have to be larger than life to be a hero, just larger than yourself.

This is a time of great challenges for America, and I pray that the president will be successful in guiding our nation.

I stand ready to lead us down a different path where we're lifted up by our desire to succeed, not dragged down by a resentment of success.

I went to a number of women's groups and said, "Can you help us find folks," and they brought us whole binders full of women.

Planned Parenthood, we're going to get rid of that.
