I Consider Myself A Logical Person And, You Know, A Lot Of People Try To Categorize Me In One Way Or Another. You Know, There Are Some Of The Things That I Say That Probably Would Be Considered Very Much Non-conservative. But I Don't Think Really Conservative Or Liberal; I Think: What Makes Sense?

My Mother Only Had A Third Grade Education, Was Illiterate, Worked As A Domestic 2 To 3 Jobs At A Time, Because She Didn't Want To Be On Welfare, Because She Never Saw People Who Went On Welfare Come Off Of Welfare, And She Just Didn't Want To Have Her Life Controlled In That Fashion.

Our Country Since Its Inception Has Been At War, Every 15 Or 20 Years. But The War That We Are Fighting Against Radical Islamist Jihadists Is One That We Must Win. Our Very Existence Is Dependent Upon That.

I Came To Realize That If People Could Make Me Angry They Could Could Control Me. Why Should I Give Someone Else Such Power Over My Life?
