We don't lump people by groups or special interests. And let me add, in the party of Lincoln there is no room for intolerance and not even a small corner for anti-Semitism or bigotry of any kind. Many people are welcome in our house, but not the bigots.

Government is the people's business and every man, woman and child becomes a shareholder with the first penny of tax paid.

You can't be for big government, big taxes and big bureaucracy and still be for the little guy.

I can't help but believe that in the future we will see in the United States and throughout the Western world an increasing trend toward the next logical step, employee ownership. It is a path that befits a free people.

If there's one observation that rings true in today's changing world, it is that freedom and peace go hand in hand.

Above all, we must realize that no arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is so formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women. It is a weapon our adversaries in today's world do not have.
