I think it's very clear that the American people are frustrated with this move toward socialism. And so whether you're back or white, if you believe that the conservative construct is in the best interest of our future, than you too would be voting with Republicans, and if you had the opportunity to run you'd join us as well.

I see myself as a person who wants to serve the constituents within my district and find a way to move those who are not in our position philosophically to our position.

And the Tea Party represents many of us who believe that we are taxed enough already. We believe in free markets.

We have to attack those things which stand in the way of America progress. And what stands in the way of American progress right now is the federal government.

What we`re seeing in so many of the counterprotests. We`re seeing America rise in a way that it did not in the `60s, which I think is powerful and symbolic to the rest of the world, that we reject the darkness and we embrace the light.

I think when you look to the future what you'll find is that the Republican Party is building a bigger party base on stronger values.

I was warmly embraced by the Tea Party. They openly seek more minorities.
