We've got to strengthen our military long-term. We don't know what the world is going to throw at us down the road.

Our worldly successes cannot be guaranteed, but our ability to achieve spiritual success is entirely up to us, thanks to the grace of God. The best advice I know is to give is to give those worldly things your best but never your all - reserve the ultimate hope for the only one who can grant it.

There's no question but that a nuclear Iran, a nuclear-capable Iran is unacceptable to America. It presents a threat not only to our friends but ultimately a threat to us to have Iran have nuclear material, nuclear weapons that could be used against us or used to be threatening to us.

We do have tough gun laws in Massachusetts. I support them. I won't chip away at them. I believe they help protect us and provide for our safety. I'm sure my positions won't make me the hero of the NRA.

I will fight for oil, coal and natural gas.

If I'm President of the United States, when I'm President of the United States, we will stand with Israel.

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.
