Dark economic clouds are dissipating into an emerging blue sky of opportunity.

A leader gets things done.

We must do right and risk the consequences.

Just because you have a group of scientists who stood up and said here is the fact. Galileo got outvoted for a spell.

The Republican candidates are talking about ways to transition this program and it is a monstrous lie. It is a ponzi scheme to tell our kids that are 25 or 30 years old today, you're paying into a program that's going to be there. Anybody that's for the status quo with Social Security today is involved with a monstrous lie to our kids, and it's not right.

But if you say that we should not educate children who have come into our state for no other reason than they've been brought there by no fault of their own, I don't think you have a heart. We need to be educating these children, because they will become a drag on our society.

I've always believed the mission is greater than the man.
