I'm a fighter. I am passionate about what I believe. I've been passionate my whole life about the American Constitution.

Barack Obama has said he doesn't believe in American leadership or America winning - he is wrong. America can win again and we will win again.

We should not focus on ideas that divide us and pull us apart.

I've spent my whole life fighting for free-market principles and the Constitution. That's not going to change.

Any military force should be dictated by the vital national security interests of the United States. And if and when we use force, we should use overwhelming force for a clearly stated objective. And then when we're done, we should get the heck out.

You don't hear me lambasting, engaging in personal attacks, getting nasty. I don't think that belongs in politics.

We need the private sector's help, because government is not innovating. Technology is running ahead by leaps and bound. The private sector will help, just as I helped after 9/11. But they must be engaged, and they must be asked. I will ask them. I know them.
