This Feels Good Being Back In Michigan. You Know, The Trees Are The Right Height.

When We Have Had In The Past Programs That Have Said That The People Who Come Here Illegally Are Going To Get To Stay Illegally For The Rest Of Their Life, That's Going To Only Encourage More People To Come Here Illegally.

I've Been As Consistent As Human Beings Can Be.

Like The Vast Majority Of Americans, I've Opposed Same-sex Marriage, But I've Also Opposed Unjust Discrimination Against Anyone, For Racial Or Religious Reasons, Or For Sexual Preference. Americans Are A Tolerant, Generous, And Kind People. We All Oppose Bigotry And Disparagement. But The Debate Over Same-sex Marriage Is Not A Debate Over Tolerance. It Is A Debate About The Purpose Of The Institution Of Marriage And It Is A Debate About Activist Judges Who Make Up The Law Rather Than Interpret The Law.

If A Society Takes It Upon Itself To Prescribe And Proscribe Certain Streams Of Belief - To Prohibit Certain Less-favored Strains Of Conscience - It May Be The Non-believer Who Is Among The First To Be Condemned.

Dependency Is Death To Initiative, To Risk-taking And Opportunity.

There Are Some Who Would Have A Presidential Candidate Describe And Explain His Church's Distinctive Doctrines.

I Understand The Anger Americans Feel Today. In The Past, Our Presidents Have Channeled That Anger And Forged It Into Resolve, Into Endurance And High Purpose, And Into The Will To Defeat The Enemies Of Freedom. Our Anger Was Transformed Into Energy Directed For Good. Donald Trump Is Directing Our Anger For Less Than Noble Purposes.

I Happen To Believe That If We Want To Replace A Lifetime Politician Like Barack Obama, Who Had No Experience Leading Anything... We've Got To Nominate A Leader If We're Going To Replace Someone Who Is Not A Leader.

Christianity Is Not The Faith Of The Complacent, The Comfortable Or Of The Timid. It Demands And Creates Heroic Souls.

Government Is Taking 40 Percent Of The Gdp. And That's At The State, Local And Federal Level. President Obama Has Taken Government Spending At The Federal Level From 20 Percent To 25 Percent.

It Is Time To Acknowledge The Extraordinary Sacrifice Of All Of Our Veterans. While Many Massachusetts Soldiers Served Our Nation In A Period Technically Dubbed 'peacetime,' They Restored American Pride In The Wake Of Vietnam And Helped Bring A Successful End To The Cold War. The Service Of These Men And Women Was Not Without Cost. There Are Countless Stories Of Soldiers Who Served With Great Distinction Only To Be Denied Veteran Status After Returning Home. Every Man And Woman Who Volunteered To Serve This Country Should Be Treated With The Same Degree Of Respect, Gratitude And Dignity.

I'm Not Concerned About The Very Poor, We Have A Safety Net There, If We Need To Repair, I'll Fix It. I'm Not Concerned About The Very Rich, They're Doing Just Fine.

I Don't Want To See Trickle Down Racism. I Don't Want To See A President Of The United States Saying Things Which Change The Character Of The Generations Of Americans That Are Following.

And This President Wakes Up Every Morning, Looks Out Across America And Is Proud To Announce, 'it Could Be Worse.' It Could Be Worse? Is That What It Means To Be An American? It Could Be Worse? Of Course Not. What Defines Us As Americans Is Our Unwavering Conviction That We Know It Must Be Better.

America Can Be A Partner With China. We Don't Have To Be An Adversary In Any Way, Shape Or Form. We Can Work With Them, We Can Collaborate With Them, If They're Willing To Be Responsible.

In Order To Become A Success, A Business Doesn't Just Have To Do Well, It Has To To Better Than Its Competitors. Being Number One Isn't Just About Bragging Rights. Often It Means The Difference Between Prospering And Merely Hanging On.

I Do Not Favor Same-sex Marriage. I Oppose Same-sex Marriage, And That Has Been My View. But, But If People Are Looking For Someone Who Will Discriminate Against Gays Or Will In Any Way Try And Suggest That People That Have Different Sexual Orientation Don't Have Full Rights In This Country, They Won't Find That In Me.

My Leadership Will End The Obama Era And Begin A New Era Of American Prosperity.

Barack Obama Is Facing A Financial Emergency On A Grander Scale. Yet His Approach Has Been To Engage In One Of The Biggest Peacetime Spending Binges In American History.

American History

When It Comes To Our Foreign Policy, Mitt Romney Seems To Want To Import The Foreign Policies Of The 1980s, Just Like The Social Policies Of The 1950s And The Economic Policies Of The 1920s.

Some People In America Feel That Pakistan Is Being Nice To Us, And That We Should Walk Away Fro Mthem. But Pakistan Is Important To The Region, To The World And To Us, Because Pakistan Has 100 Nuclear Warheads And They're Rushing To Build A Lot More. They'll Have More Than Great Britain Sometime In The - In The Relatively Near Future.

I'll Also Make Sure That America Has Trade Relations With China That Work For Us. I've Watched Year In And Year Out As Companies Have Shut Down And People Have Lost Their Jobs Because China Has Not Played By The Same Rules, In Part By Holding Down Artificially The Value Of Their Currency. It Holds Down The Prices Of Their Goods. It Means Our Goods Aren't As Competitive And We Lose Jobs. That's Got To End.

I Know What It Takes To Balance Budgets. I Have Done It My Entire Life.

I Will Work And Fight For Stem Cell Research.

Don't Try To Stop The Foreclosure Process. Let It Run Its Course And Hit The Bottom.

If General Motors, Ford And Chrysler Get The Bailout That Their Chief Executives Asked For Yesterday, You Can Kiss The American Automotive Industry Goodbye. It Won't Go Overnight, But Its Demise Will Be Virtually Guaranteed. Without That Bailout, Detroit Will Need To Drastically Restructure Itself. With It, The Automakers Will Stay The Course - The Suicidal Course Of Declining Market Shares, Insurmountable Labor And Retiree Burdens, Technology Atrophy, Product Inferiority And Never-ending Job Losses. Detroit Needs A Turnaround, Not A Check.

I Believe We Should Use Any And All Means Necessary To Take Out People Who Pose A Threat To Us And Our Friends Around The World. And It’s Widely Reported That Drones Are Being Used In Drone Strikes, And I Support That And Entirely, And Feel The President Was Right To Up The Usage Of That Technology, And Believe That We Should Continue To Use It, To Continue To Go After The People That Represent A Threat To This Nation And To Our Friends.

You Know, Circumstances Can Change, But I'm Just Not Going To Let My Head Go There.

I'm Pleased That I've Balanced Budgets. I Was On The World Of Business For 25 Years. If You Didn't Balance Your Budget, You Went Out Of Business. I Went Into The Olympics That Was Out Of Balance, And We Got It On Balance, And Made A Success There. I Had The Chance To Be Governor Of A State. Four Years In A Row, Democrats And Republicans Came Together To Balance The Budget. We Cut Taxes 19 Times And Balanced Our Budget.

Choosing Education Is A Very Good Decision, Not Only Good For The Student, But Also For Our Country. The United States Was The First Nation In History To Recognize That Public Education For Every Citizen, Regardless Of Class Or Station, Was Vital To Its Future . . .

This, In My View, Is The Highest Responsibility Of The President Of The United States, Which Is To Maintain The Safety Of The American People.

In France, For Instance, I'm Told That Marriage Is Now Frequently Contracted In Seven-year Terms Where Either Party May Move On When Their Term Is Up. How Shallow And How Different From The Europe Of The Past.

It's Not Government That Makes Business Successful. It's Not Government Investments That Makes Businesses Grow And Hire People.

And Fifth, We Will Champion Small Businesses, America's Engine Of Job Growth. That Means Reducing Taxes On Business, Not Raising Them. It Means Simplifying And Modernizing The Regulations That Hurt Small Business The Most. And It Means That We Must Rein In The Skyrocketing Cost Of Healthcare By Repealing And Replacing Obamacare.

Mr. President, You Were Elected To Lead. You Chose To Follow. And Now It's Time For You To Get Out Of The Way.

I Fully Support Governor Kasich's-i Think It's Called 'question 2' In Ohio. Fully Support That. In Fact, On My Website As Far Back As April I Laid Out I Supported 'question 2.' ... I Support It 110%.

I Understand What It Takes To - To Make A Bright And Prosperous Future For America Again. I - I Spent My Life In The Private Sector, Not In Government. I’m A Guy Who Wants To Help, With The Experience I Have, The American People.

I Have Paid Taxes Every Year, A Lot Of Taxes.

This Is All About Creating Good Jobs For Middle-income Americans, And It's A Place Where The President, Frankly, Has Failed. His Effort To Put In Place A Series Of Liberal Proposals He Thought Were Historic Kept His Eye Off The Ball Of Getting The Economy Going Again. It Is The Economy, And The American People Aren't Stupid. They Want Someone Who Can Get This Economy Going Again.

I Think People Want To See Change, Want To See Something New And Hillary Clinton Is Just Not That Person.

One Simple Rule: No Amnesty, No Special Pathway To Citizenship.

These American Values, This Great Moral Heritage, Is Shared And Lived In My Religion As It Is In Yours. I Was Taught In My Home To Honor God And Love My Neighbor. I Saw My Father March With Martin Luther King.

When The President Is Making It Harder To Mine Coal, To Use Coal, To Take Advantage Of Our Gas Resources, To Make It Harder To Get Our Oil Resources - All Those Things Combine To Make Our Cost Of Energy Higher Than It Needs To Be, And It Drives Away Enterprises From This Country. It Sends It To Places That Have Lower-cost Energy.

If I Am Elected President Of These United States, I Will Work With All My Energy And Soul To Restore That America, To Lift Our Eyes To A Better Future. That Future Is Our Destiny. That Future Is Out There. It Is Waiting For Us. Our Children Deserve It, Our Nation Depends Upon It, The Peace And Freedom Of The World Require It.

Instead Of Leading The World By How Much We Borrow, It's Time That We Make Sure We Lead The World In How Much We Build And Create And Invest.
