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.

But the question we should ask ourselves is, who is the next visionary leader of America? How do we have the aspiration and inspire Americans to reach their highest level? We need a president that does so.

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.

I think about my grandfather who's 89 years old, and the last thing he needs is more money out of his pocket.

The future of the Republican Party and the future of America is based on a values system and the issues that drive those values are on our side.

There are good people and bad people in all organizations fundamentally however, when you look at the basis of the Tea Party it has nothing to do with race. It has to do with an economic recovery. It has to do with limiting the role of our government in our lives. It has to do with free markets.

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.
