I'm Not Familiar Precisely With What I Said, But I'll Stand By What I Said, Whatever It Was.

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.

I Spent My Whole Life In The Private Sector, 25 Years In The Private Sector. I Understand That When Government Takes More Money Out Of The Hands Of People, It Makes It More Difficult For Them To Buy Things. If They Can't Buy Things, The Economy Doesn't Grow. If The Economy Doesn't Grow, We Don't Put Americans To Work.

I Will Begin My Presidency With A Jobs Tour. President Obama Began With An Apology Tour. America, He Said, Had Dictated To Other Nations. No Mr. President, America Has Freed Other Nations From Dictators.

Establishment Suggests There Must Be Some Wizard Of Oz Somewhere Pulling The Strings. That's Not The Way It Works. There Are Individuals Like Myself. I Sat There And Watched Donald Trump, And I Said, Look, Someone Has Got To Say Something.

Frankly, I Was Born With A Silver Spoon.

As We Watch The World Today, Sometimes It Seems That We`re At The Mercy Of Events Instead Of Shaping Events. And A Strong America`s Essential To Shape Events, And A Strong America, By The Way, Depends On A Strong Military.

We're All A Nation That Believes We're Children Of The Same God.

It's Time For The Party Of Big Ideas, Not The Party Of Big Brother!

This President Takes His Inspiration From The Capitals Of Europe; We Look To The Cities And Small Towns Of America. This President Puts His Faith In Government. We Put Our Faith In The American People.

Donald Trump Is A Phony, A Fraud.his Promises Are As Worthless As A Degree From Trump University.

The 'blind Trust' Is An Age-old Ruse. You Give A Blind Trust Rules. You Can Say To A Blind Trust, Don't Invest In Properties Which Would Be In Conflict Of Interest Or Where The Seller Might Think They're Going To Take Advantage From Me.

My View Is That Marriage Is A Relationship Between A Man And A Woman. That's The Position I've Had For Some Time, And I Don't Intend To Make Any Adjustments At This Point... Or Ever, By The Way.

We Have To Stand For Our Principles, Stand For Our Allies, Stand For A Strong Military And Stand For A Stronger Economy.

Opportunity Expands When There Is Excellence And Choice In Education.

President Obama Instituted The Most Anti-growth, Anti-investment, Anti-jobs Measures That We Have Seen In Our Lifetime. Now He Called His Agenda Ambitious, I Call It Reckless.

Happiness, For Me, Is A Function Of The Number Of People I Love, And I Think Joy And Happiness Is Directly Related To How Many People Are In Our Lives And How Deeply We Are Bonded With Those People. And So I'm Happy If I'm With Ann; I'm Happier If I'm Also With My Family And My Grandchildren.

Culture, What You Believe, What You Value, How You Live Matters. Now, As Fundamental As These Principles Are, They May Become Topics Of Democratic Debates From Time To Time, So It Is Today With The Enduring Institution Of Marriage. Marriage Is A Relationship Between A Man And A Woman.

I Will Not Create Jobs Or Hold Jobs That Kill People, And That Plant - That Plant Kills People.

We Reserve Our Deepest Respect And Admiration For Those Who Volunteer For Service And Give Their Lives To Help Keep Our Nation Secure.

Admiration And Respect

I Think An Amnesty Program... Which Is What The President (george W. Bush) Has Proposed... Those Are Reasonable Proposals.

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'd Like To Be The Next President Of The United States To Support And Help This Great Nation And To Make Sure That We All Together Remain America As The Hope Of The Earth.

The Mantle Of Leadership For Promoting The Principles Of Peace Has Fallen To America. We Didn't Ask For It. But It's An Honor That We Have It.

Ronald Reagan Was A President Of Strength. His Philosophy Was A Philosophy Of Strength - A Strong Military, A Strong Economy And Strong Families.

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

There Are A Lot Of Reasons Not To Elect Me...

My Dad, As You Probably Know, Was The Governor Of Michigan And Was The Head Of A Car Company. But He Was Born In Mexico... And Had He Been Born Of, Uh, Mexican Parents, I'd Have A Better Shot At Winning This. But He Was Unfortunately Born To Americans Living In Mexico. He Lived There For A Number Of Years. I Mean, I Say That Jokingly, But It Would Be Helpful To Be Latino.

I Have To Tell You With Regards To Global Warming That That's Something, Which, You're Right, The Scientists Haven't Entirely Resolved, But No Question About One Thing, It's Getting Warmer, And A Lot Of Good Reasons For Us To Use Less Energy, To Use It More Efficiently And To Develop Sources Here In This Country That Could Allow Us To Be More Independent Of Foreign Sources.

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.

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

My View Is That We Don't Know What's Causing Climate Change On This Planet. And The Idea Of Spending Trillions And Trillions Of Dollars To Try To Reduce Co2 Emissions Is Not The Right Course For Us.

I Longed In Many Respects To Actually Be In Vietnam And Be Representing Our Country There And In Some Ways It Was Frustrating Not To Feel Like I Was There As Part Of The Troops That Were Fighting In Vietnam.

The Greatest Threat That The World Faces, The Greatest National Security Threat Is A Nuclear Iran.

I Didn't Talk To Anybody And Say, "i'm Going To Do A Speech, Do You Go Some Ideas?" This Is Something I Did On My Own Because I Care Very Deeply About The Country.

There's No Question Raising The Minimum Wage Excessively Causes A Loss Of Jobs.

For Those Who Have Come Here Illegally, They Might Have A Transition Time To Allow Them To Set Their Affairs In Order. And Then Go Back Home And Get In Line With Everybody Else. And If They Get In Line And They Apply To Become A Citizen And Get A Green Card, They Will Be Treated Like Everybody Else.

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

The Right Way To Proceed When We Face The Kind Of Challenges We Face Is To Pursue The Strategy Which Ronald Reagan Pursued When We Faced The Challenges Of The Last Century.

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 Never Really Called Myself Pro-choice.

If We Become One Of Those Societies That Attack Success, Why Not Come As Certain There Will Be A Lot Less Success? And That's Not Who We Are.

We Should Have Communicated To Iran That We Are Prepared, That We Are Considering Military Options. They're Not Just On The Table, They Are In Our Hands.

The Middle Income Families In America Have Been Crushed Over The Last Four Years.

Fourth, To Assure Every Entrepreneur And Every Job Creator That Their Investments In America Will Not Vanish As Have Those In Greece, We Will Cut The Deficit And Put America On Track To A Balanced Budget.

I Will Not Cut Our Military Budget By A Trillion Dollars, Which Is A Combination Of The Budget Cuts Barack Obama Has, As Well As The Sequestration Cuts. That, In My View, Is Making Our Future Less Certain And Less Secure.

The Path I Lay Out Is Not One Paved With Ever Increasing Government Checks And Cradle To Grave Assurance That Government Will Always Be The Solution. If This Election Is A Bidding War For Who Can Promise The Most Goodies And The Most Benefits, I'm Not Your President. You Have That President Today.

I Understand The Impact Of Those Kinds Of Factors On Job Creation. I Will Have A Very Different Policy. My Policy On Energy Is To Take Advantage Of Coal, Oil, Natural Gas, As Well As Our Renewables, And Nuclear - Make America The Largest Energy Producer In The World.

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.

Prosperous Future

The Kids Of Those That Came Here Illegally, Those Kids, I Think, Should Have A Pathway To Become A Permanent Resident Of The United States And Military Service, For Instance, Is One Way They Would Have That Kind Of Pathway To Become A Permanent Resident.

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. Look, At Some Point, You Cease Being A Free Economy, And You Become A Government Economy. And We've Got To Stop That.

I Don't Believe That Bureaucrats In Washington Should Tell Someone Whether They Can Use Contraceptives Or Not. And I Don't Believe Employers Should Tell Someone Whether They Could Have Contraceptive Care Of Not. Every Woman In America Should Have Access To Contraceptives.

I Believe That Since Roe V. Wade Has Been The Law For 20 Years We Should Sustain And Support It.

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

Our Veterans Know The Meaning Of Service Better Than Anyone Else And They Aren't About To Quit Working When They Come Home. The Best Reward We Can Provide Our Vets For Their Service Isn't A Medal Or A Check; It's A Livelihood And A Means Of Supporting Themselves And Their Families.

I've Been Looking At Some Video Clips On Youtube Of President Obama, Then Candidate Obama, Going Through Iowa Making Promises. I Think The Gap Between His Promises And His Performance Is The Largest I've Seen, Well, Since The Kardashian Wedding And The Promise Of 'til Death Do We Part.

Christianity Is Not The Faith Of The Complacent, The Comfortable Or Of The Timid. It Demands And Creates Heroic Souls Like Wesley, Wilberforce, Bonhoeffer, John Paul The Second, And Billy Graham. Each Showed, In Their Own Way, The Relentless And Powerful Influence Of The Message Of Jesus Christ.

When You Give A Speech You Don't Go Through A Laundry List, You Talk About The Things That You Think Are Important.

Let's Take Energy, For Instance. I Understand That In Some Industries, The Input Cost Of Energy Is A Major Factor In Whether An Industry Is Going To Locate In The United States Or Go Elsewhere. So, When, At Bain Capital, We Started A New Steel Company Called Steel Dynamics In Indiana, The Cost Of Energy Was A Very Important Factor To The Success Of That Enterprise.

I Always Enjoy Listening To Rush Limbaugh. I Often Agree With Him. Sometimes I Disagree With Him.

It Kills Me Not To Be There, Not To Be In The White House Doing What Needs To Be Done.

Free Enterprise Has Done More To Lift People Out Of Poverty, To Help Build A Strong Middle Class, To Help Educate Our Kids, And To Make Our Lives Better Than All The Programs Of Government Combined.

You Balance The Budget By Restraining The Growth Of Government And Encouraging The Growth Of The Private Sector.

I'm A Big Believer In Getting Money From Where The Money Is, And The Money Is In Washington. I Learned From Running The Olympics That You Can Get Money There To Help Build Economic Opportunities. We Actually Got Over $410 Million From The Federal Government; That Is A Huge Increase Over Anything Ever Done Before. We Did That By Going After Every Agency Of Government. That Kind Of Creativity I Want To Bring To Everything We Do (in Massachusetts).

What You Believe, What You Value, How You Live - Matters.

Everything Corporations Earn Ultimately Goes To People.

This Is Something The Democrats Have Talked About, And A Goal We Share, Getting Everyone Insured, And Solving The Issue In A Republican Way, Which Is Applying A Personal Responsibility Principle (individual Mandate), Reforming The Market (more Strictly Regulating The Insurance Companies), And Allowing People To Buy Private Health Care Insurance That They Can Take With Them From Job To Job That's Entirely Affordable. So It's A Republican Way Of Solving A Problem That We Face As A Nation.

I Actually Like Jokes As Well As Things That Are Sort Of Fun.

I Believe That As People Will Look At Me, They'll See A Person Who Has Dealt With A Number Of Very Difficult And Challenging Circumstances And That I Have Been Able To Successfully Navigate Through Those And Create Greater Strength And Greater Opportunity. I Believe That People Recognize That I'm Someone Who Has Confidence In America's Cause.

What Outsourcing Causes - What It's Caused By, Rather. I Understand, For Instance, How To Read A Balance Sheet. I Happen To Believe That Having Been In The Private Sector For Twenty-five Years Gives Me A Perspective On How Jobs Are Created - That Someone Who's Never Spent A Day In The Private Sector, Like President Obama, Simply Doesn't Understand.

When I Place My Hand On The Bible And Take The Oath Of Office, That Oath Becomes My Highest Promise To God. If I Am Fortunate To Become Your President, I Will Serve No One Religion, No One Group, No One Cause, And No One Interest. A President Must Serve Only The Common Cause Of The People Of The United States.
