Well, Guess What, I’m Cuban! And No Self-respecting Cuban Man Of The Era Would Let His Wife Work.

I Don't Know That I'm In A Position To Give Campaign Advice To Donald Trump, Given That He Just Whipped Me In A Primary.

Climate Change Is The Perfect Pseudoscientific Theory For A Big Government Politician Who Wants More Power. Why? Because It Is A Theory That Can Never Be Disproven.

As President, I Wouldn't Be Making The Day-to-day Combat Decisions. The Job Of The Commander-in-chief Is To Lay The Objective Out And Then You Rely Upon The Generals And Admirals And Commanders To Give You Their Expert Advice On The Tools Needed To Carry Out That Objective.

President Obama, When He Was Elected, He Could Have Been A Unifying Figure. He Could Have Chosen To Be A Leader On Race Relations And Bring Us Together. And He Hasn't Done That, He's Made Decisions That I Think Have Inflamed Racial Tensions That Have Divided Us Rather Than Bringing Us Together.

I Don't Think We Should Be Engaged In Nation-building. It's Not Our Job To Turn Foreign Nations Into Democratic Utopias, To Try To Turn Iraq Into Switzerland. It Is The Military's Job To Hunt Down And Kill Our Enemies, To Kill Isis Before They Murder American Citizens And They Wage Jihad.

Isis Is Gaining Strength Because The Perception Is That They're Winning. And President [barack] Obama Fuels That Perception.

You Have A Right To Have A Feather Duster. If Anyone Breaks In, You Can Make Sure They're Really Clean As They're Robbing Your House.

I Will Commend The Democrats For One Thing. If They Name Keith Ellison As The Head Of The Dnc, Then I'll Commend Them For Truth In Advertising.

If You Want Someone To Grab A Beer With, I May Not Be That Guy. But If You Want Someone To Drive You Home, I Will Get The Job Done And I Will Get You Home.

Ronald Reagan Reignited The American Economy, Rebuilt The Military, Bankrupted The Soviet Union And Defeated Soviet Communism. I Will Do The Same Thing.

He Has Attempted To Muddy The Waters, But I Think Anyone That Watched The Battle That We Had - You Know, There Was A Time For Choosing, As Ronald Reagan Put It, Where There Was A Battle Over Amnesty. And Some Chose, Like Sen. Marco Rubio, To Stand With Barack Obama And Chuck Schumer And Support A Massive Amnesty Plan.

Liberty Is Never Safer Than When Politicans Are Terrified.

You Know Flexibility Is A Good Thing But It Shouldn't - You Shouldn't Be Flexible On Core Principles.

We Are The Only Campaign That Has Beaten Donald Trump. And We're The Only Candidate That Can Beat Donald Trump. If You Look At The Super Tuesday States, We're Running Neck And Neck With Donald In States All Across Super Tuesday.

We Need To Do Whatever Is Necessary To Utterly Defeat Isis....we're Not Using Our Overwhelming Air Power. We're Not Arming The Kurds. Those Need To Be The First Steps. And Then We Need To Put Whatever Ground Power Is Needed To Carry It Out.

While There May Have Been An Age Difference, Josh Duggar's Transgressions Are Far Less An Affront To God Than What Gays Do With Each Other.

I Believe We Should Follow The Text Of Every Law, Even (a) Law I Disagree With, It's One Of The Real Differences -- If You Look At President Obama And The Lawlessness, If He Disagrees With A Law He Simply Refuses To Follow It Or Claims The Authority To Unilaterally Change.

President [barack] Obama Has Talked About Fundamentally Transforming This Country. There's 7 Billion People Across The Face Of The Globe, Many Of Whom Want To Come To This Country. If They Come Legally, Great. But If They Come Illegally And They Get Amnesty, That Is How We Fundamentally Change This Country, And It Really Is Striking.

If You Want A Candidate To Defend Life And Marriage And Religious Liberty And The Second Amendment And To Appoint Strong Constitutionalists To The Court, I'm The Only Candidate With That Record. That's Why Conservatives Are Uniting Behind Our Campaign. And If They Want To Continue With The Attacks, That's Their Prerogative.

Second Amendment

We`re All Aware That Hillary Clinton Has A Problem With The Truth. Even Among Politicians, And That Does Not Make Her Unique In The Swamp That Is Washington. But Hillary Stands Out.

Everyone Seems To Have Internalized The Fact That You Can Say Anything You Want At A Televised Debate, And Only A Tiny Fraction Of The Audience Will Ever See A Fact-check. So Why Not Claim The Moon Is Square?

We Need To Focus On Killing The Bad Guys, Not Getting Stuck In Middle Eastern Civil Wars That Don't Keep America Safe.

We're Looking At A President [barack Obama] Who's Engaged In Double-speak Where He Doesn't Call Radical Islamic Terrorism By Its Name. Indeed, He Gives A Speech After The San Bernardino Attack Where His Approach Is To Try To Go After The Constitutional Rights Of Law-abiding Citizens Rather Than To Keep Us Safe.

There Are Millions Of Peaceful Muslims Across The World, In Countries Like India, Where There Is Not The Problems We Are Seeing In Nations That Are Controlled - Have Territory Controlled By Al Qaida Or Isis, And We Should Direct At The Problem, Focus On The Problem, And Defeat Radical Islamic Terrorism. It's Not A War On A Faith; It's A War On A Political And Theocratic Ideology That Seeks To Murder Us.

The National Enquirer Is Complete Garbage, It Is Total Lies, It Was Planted By Donald Trump's Henchmen, And I Don't Think The People Of Wisconsin Or The People Of America Have Any Interest In Tabloid Trash.

What I Believe Is That We Should Defend Life.

The Very First Day That President [barack] Obama Was Inaugurated, His First Act As A President Was To Rescind That Ban On Third-trimester Abortions. And He's Even Carried It Further. Now, Even If The Baby Is Born Alive, They Have The Right To Kill That Baby. It Is An Abomination.

I Think Primary Voters Have A Right To Know. And Donald's Trump Excuse Of It That He's Being Audited, Look, That Makes It Even More Important For Him To Release His Taxes, So That Voters Can See If There Is - Mitt Romney Suggested There Could Be A Bombshell There. I Don't Know If There Is Or Not. But Donald Is Hiding Them From The Voters, And I Think He Owes Candor To The Voters.

What I'm Encouraging President Trump And The Cabinet And Congressional Leaders To Do, Is Let's Keep Our Promises. Let's Do What We Said We Would Do, And That's What Each And Every One Of You Can Hold All Of Us Accountable For.

What I Am Endeavoring To Do Is Simply Speak The Truth, Speak Common-sense Values, Free Market Principles And The Constitution. For Every Question, The Constitution Is My Touchstone.

What Data Can Tell You Is If You Have 10 Messages, All Of Which You Believe, It Can Tell You Which Messages Are Resonating And Which Aren't. And If You Break It Down Even Further, The Truth Of The Matter Is Some Messages Resonate One Place And Other Messages Resonate Another Place.

America Has Receded From The World. Today Our Friends And Allies Don't Trust Us. And Our Enemies Don't Fear Us. I Think We Should Get Back, Number One, To American Leadership In The World.

This Man [barack Obama] Does Not Have The Interests Of Our Country. That's Not His Agenda. His Agenda Is To Bring Us Down To A Third-world Country.

You Look Across This Country People Are Fed Up With Washington. This [2016] Election Was The American People Saying, Enough Already With The Corruption In Washington And It's Both Parties.

I'm An Optimist At Heart.

I Want To Commend The Men And Women At Cpac. As Activists Fighting For Liberty, Fighting For The Constitution, Y'all Are Incredibly Important. You Are Incredibly Important Number One In Shocking And Terrifying The Mainstream Media.

We Are Seeing A Great Awakening. A National Movement Of We The People, Brought Together By What Unites Us - A Shared Love Of Liberty, And An Understanding Of The Unlimited Potential Of Free Men And Free Women.

Unlimited Potential

What Is Deemed "unlikeable" In Washington Is Actually Standing Up To Washington And Saying No, Saying "the Emperor Has No Clothes," Saying "we Made Promises To The People Who Elected Us; Let's Do That."

The Grass Roots Are Energized Because The Absolutely Highest Priority In The Country In November Is To Defeat Barack Obama. I Have Spoken With Literally Thousands And Thousands Of Tea-party Activists - I Have Yet To Meet A Single Tea-party Leader That Is Not Going To Vote For Mitt Romney.

I Think If You're At Home And You Don't Want Donald Trump To Be The Republican Nominee, Then The Only Candidate Who Can Beat Donald Is Our Campaign. And So I Would Encourage, Even If You Like Another Candidate, Stand With Us If You Don't Want Donald To Be The Nominee.

Let Me Say Something At The Outset. The Questions That Have Been Asked So Far In This Debate Illustrate Why The American People Don't Trust The Media. This Is Not A Cage Match. And, You Look At The Questions - "donald Trump, Are You A Comic-book Villain?" "ben Carson, Can You Do Math?" "john Kasich, Will You Insult Two People Over Here?" "marco Rubio, Why Don't You Resign?" "jeb Bush, Why Have Your Numbers Fallen?" How About Talking About The Substantive Issues The People Care About?

In Texas, We Cook Bacon A Little Differently Than Most Folks...machine-gun Bacon.

We Are Witnessing A Great Awakening. Millions Of Texans, Millions Of Americans Are Rising Up To Reclaim Our Country, To Defend Liberty And To Restore The Constitution.

I Don't Think It's Government's Job To Find Health Care For People. I Think It's The Individual's Job To Find Health Care.

Isis And Iran Have Declared War On America, And We Need A Commander In Chief Who Will Do Everything Necessary To Keep Our Children Safe.

There Is A Better Vision For Our Future: A Return To Freedom.

I Will Happily Support Anything That Protects Life.

I Believe The American People Are Looking For Someone To Speak The Truth.

I Believe Everyone Here Has A Right To Speak Out On Politics As Effectively As Possible.

I Have Never Supported Amnesty, And I Led The Fight Against Chuck Schumer's Gang Of Eight Amnesty Legislation In The Senate.

If You're Going To Decide To Run A Data-driven Campaign, Decision-making Has To Follow It.

Social Justice Is Collectivism. Social Justice Is The Rights Of A Group. It Denies Individual Responsibility. It's A Negation Of Individual Responsibility, So Social Justice Is Totally Contrary To The Word Of God.

Nidal Hasan Communicated With Anwar Al-awlaki, A Known Radical Cleric, Asked About Waging Jihad Against His Fellow Soldiers. The Problem Is Because Of Political Correctness, The [barack] Obama Administration, Like A Lot Of Folks Here, Want To Search Everyone's Cell Phones And E-mails And Not Focus On The Bad Guys. And Political Correctness Is Killing People.

I'll Tell You Whose View On [bashar] Assad Is The Same As Mine. It's Prime Minister [benjamin] Netanyahu. Prime Minister Netanyahu Has Said Israel Doesn't Have A Dog In That Fight Because Assad Is A Puppet Of Iran, A Shia Radical Islamic Terrorist, But At The Same Time, Prime Minister Netanyahu Doesn't Want To See Syria Governed By Isis.

I've Laid Out A Very, Very Detailed Immigration Plan On My Website, Tedcruz.org. It's 11 Pages Of Existing Federal Law And In Particular The Question Of What To Do With People Who Are Here Now.

Every Candidate Is Going To Come To You And Say They Are The Most Conservative Person That Ever Lived.

We Deserve Leaders Who Stand For Principal, Who Unite Us All Behind Shared Values, Who Cast Aside Anger For Love. That Is The Standard We Should Expect From Everybody.

I Love Texans. And Texas Is Clearly The Crown Jewel Of Super Tuesday.

We Are Not Any Safer Through The Bulk Collection Of All Americans' Records.

A Very Good Friend Of Mine Spent A Fair Amount Of Time Doing Postmortems And Met With A Number Of The Senior Folks On The Romney Campaign And They Spent, What Was It, $140, $160 Million On Data. And This Friend Of Mine, Who Is A Very Sharp Thinker, Asked A Series Of Questions, But The Most Important One He Asked, He Said, "what Decisions Did You Make Differently Because Of The Data?" And He's Coming From The Private Equity World Where He Wants To Know, Ok, And The Answer From Virtually Every Single Senior Romney Person Was "nothing."

Sometimes People Try To Give Me Advice Going Forward, And They Say, "you Know, You've Just Got To Work To Be More Likeable In Washington." And I Laugh And Say, "you Know This Isn't Rocket Science.

I'm The Son Of A Pastor And Evangelist And I've Described Many Times How My Father, When I Was A Child, Was An Alcoholic. He Was Not A Christian. And My Father Left My Mother And Left Me When I Was Just Three Years Old. And Someone Invited Him To Clay Road Baptist Church. And He Gave His Heart To Jesus And It Turned Him Around. And He Got On A Plane And He Flew Back To My Mother And Me.

I'm Not Going To Impugn Anyone's Integrity. I'm Not Going To Attack Their Character. And, In Fact, I Will Happily Praise Both Donald Trump And Marco Rubio As Men Who I Admire, As People Who I'm Not Going To Go Personal With Them.

In A Republican Primary Every Candidate Is Going To Come In Front Of You And Say I'm The Most Conservative Guy That Ever Lived. Goshdarnit, Whodidily, I'm Conservative. You Know What, Talk Is Cheap. The Word Tells Us You Shall Know Them By Their Fruits ... Look Every Candidate In The Eye And Say 'don't Talk, Show Me.'

The Most Enduring Legacy Of President Barack Obama Is Going To Be A New Generation Of Leaders Standing Up For Liberty.

We Need A President Who Stands Up, Number One, And Says, We Will Defeat Isis. And Number Two, Says The Greatest National Security Threat Facing America Is A Nuclear Iran.

Isis And Radical Islamic Terrorism Will Face No More Determined Foe Than I Will Be.

Any Military Force Should Be Dictated By The Vital National Security Interests Of The United States. And If And When We Use Force, We Should Use Overwhelming Force For A Clearly Stated Objective. And Then When We're Done, We Should Get The Heck Out.

Fifty-five Years Ago, When My Dad Was A Penniless Teenager, Thank God Some Well-meaning Bureaucrat Didn't Put His Arm Around Him And Say Let Me Take Care Of You.

Far Too Many Young People Are Living In Their Parents' Basements, And I Think It Is Important For People To Have Hope And A Vision Things Can Be Different.

The Danger Of Iran Is If You Listen To What The Ayatollah Is Saying, To What The Mullahs Are Saying, Rational Self-preservation Is Not Their Objective. If Iran Acquires A Nuclear Weapon The Odds Are Unacceptably High That That Weapon Will Not Be Simply Stockpiled, But It Will Be Detonated Over Tel Aviv, Or New York, Or Los Angeles.

I Believe In A America First Foreign Policy, That Far Too Often President [barack] Obama And Hillary Clinton - And, Unfortunately, More Than A Few Republicans - Have Gotten Distracted From The Central Focus Of Keeping This Country Safe.

Let Me Tell You, Communism Does Not Work! Socialism Does Not Work!

When You Had A Terrorist, You Could Only Search A Relatively Narrow Slice Of Numbers, Primarily Land Lines.

That's What Actually Caused Me To Run For Office Is, You Know, My Family Story, The Experience Of Growing Up In A Family Where Your Dad Had Been Imprisoned, Had Been Tortured, And Came To America With Nothing, Washing Dishes For 50 Cents An Hour. That Was Perhaps The Most Formative Experience Of My Childhood, Is Being Raised In That Household Where Freedom Had An Urgency.

If You're Looking For Someone To Go To Washington, To Go Along To Get Along, To Get - To Agree With The Career Politicians In Both Parties Who Get In Bed With The Lobbyists And Special Interests, Then I Ain't Your Guy.

It's Really Remarkable To See Two Candidates,[donald] Trump And [marco] Rubio, Making Things Up And Putting Things Out For Which There Is No Evidence And No Basis.

Instead Of Being A Woodrow Wilson Democracy Promoter We Ought To Hunt Down Our Enemies And Kill Isis Rather Than Creating Opportunities For Isis To Take Control Of New Countries.

My Father Fled Cuba, And I Will Fight To Defend Liberty Because My Family Knows What It's Like To Lose It.

I Think Data Is Incredibly Powerful For Understanding What People Are Thinking And For Allocating Resources.

I Want To Empower Farmers To Expand Their Market Share.

One Of The Things That I Intend To Devote A Lot Of Time To In The Coming Years Is Continuing To Try To Move People's Hearts And Minds With Humor, With Stories, With Anecdotes, With Facts And Information.

Start Being Biblically Correct, Instead Of Politically Correct.

Politically Correct

We Don't Have A System That Knocks On Doors Of Every Person In America.

Move Over To Egypt. Once Again, The [barack] Obama Administration, Encouraged By Republicans, Toppled [hosni] Mubarak Who Had Been A Reliable Ally Of The United States, Of Israel, And In Its Place, [mohamed] Morsi And The Muslim Brotherhood Came In, A Terrorist Organization.

I Think Super Tuesday Is The Most Important Day Of This Entire Primary Election. It Is The Most Delegates Awarded In A Single Night Will Be Awarded On Super Tuesday.

Imagine A Legal Immigration System That Welcomes And Celebrates Those Who Come To Achieve The American Dream.

Whenever Anyone Does As This Ad Does, Plays The Actual Words Of Donald Trump On National Television, His Response Is To Yell, "liar." Their Strategy Is Simply To Yell, "liar, Liar, Liar."

I Am Not In The Habit Of Supporting People Who Attack My Wife And Attack My Father. That Was Not A Blanket Commitment That If You Go And Slander And Attack Heidi That I'm Going To Nonetheless Come Like A Servile Puppy Dog And Say Thank You Very Much For Maligning My Wife And Maligning My Father.

If As A Voter You Think What We Need Is More Republicans In Washington To Cut A Deal With Harry Reid And Nancy Pelosi And Chuck Schumer, Then I Guess Donald Trump`s Your Guy.

We Are Still A Nation Of Laws. You Just Have To Check With Barack Obama Every Day To See What They Are.

We Need A Much Better Understanding Of The Climate Before Making Policy Choices That Would Impose Substantial Economic Costs On Our Nation.

I Looked At The Pilgrims Coming To America. In Their First Year, They Decided To Try A Communist Experiment. And The First Year Of The Pilgrims, They Established This Socialistic Concept: 'well, We Have All This Land Before Us - Let Us All Work It Together.' Oh, How Wonderful It Sounded. 'let Us All Work It Together, And We Will Share In The Produce Of The Land.' They Almost Starved To Death! Almost Half Of Them Died, That Very First Year.

I'm Very Proud To Have Joined With Conservatives In Both The Senate And The House To Reform How We Target Bad Guys.

What Animates Me In Politics Are The Economic Issues Of Opportunity.

I Love Texas, I Can't Wait In A Couple Of Days To Be Home To The Great State.

The Court Is Making The Preposterous Assumption That The People Of The United States Somehow Silently Redefined Marriage In 1868 When They Ratified The 14th Amendment.

Ben Carson Seems Pretty Proud That He Knows How Big The Medicare Budget Is. All That Money Goes To The Private Sector, But Carson Seems To Think The Private Sector Would Do A Lot Better If...something. I'm Not Quite Sure What.

Republican Party Leaders Have Been Worrying About The Damage A [donald] Trump Nomination Could Do To The Party, But Also What Might Happen If He Left The Gop And Took His Supporters With Him. But Trump Said He Would Stay A Republican And Do Everything In His Power To Beat Hillary Clinton.

I Recognize That Folks In The Press Love To See Republican-on-republican Violence, And So You Want Me To Say Something Bad About Donald Trump, Or Bad About John Mccain Or Bad About Anyone Else, I'm Not Going To Do It.

If You Want A Candidate Who Is Led The Fight Against Obamacare, Who Will Lift The Burdens On Small Businesses And Bring Back Jobs, I'm The Only Candidate In The Race With That Proven Record.

A Good Impression Is Great. But A Bad Impression Is Even Better.

If You Love Our Country And Love Your Children As Much As I Know That You Do, Stand And Speak And Vote Your Conscience. Vote For Candidates Up And Down The Ticket.

There's A Lot Of Despair In The Usa. Young People Are Afraid For The Future.

If You Look On The Republican Side, The Two Republicans Who Have Most Energized Young People In Modern Times Are Ronald Reagan And Ron Paul.

I Introduced Bill Saying We Need More Security, We Need More Scrutiny. Once Again, Marco [rubio] Opposed This. So Marco Can't Have It Both Ways. He Thinks He Wants To Be This, "oh, I'm Great And Strong On National Defense." But He's The Weakest Of All The Candidates On Immigration. He Is The One For An Open Border That Is Leaving Us Defenseless.

I Think The Establishment Donor Class Has Begun To Crumble. They`re Searching For [marco] Rubio, Trying To Get Some Momentum There. But The Establishment In Terms Of The Official Elected Leadership Of The Republican Party, When You Look At [kevin] Mccarthy, They`re Starting To Wrap Theirselves Around The Idea Of [donald] Trump, Holding Back On An Endorsement.

The Proper Way To Make Policy Changes Is For You To Convince Your Fellow Citizens That There Is A Better Policy Outcome Than The Current One. And Then In State Legislatures, For Those State Legislatures To Vote That Change.

Donald Trump Has Opened [ Politically Correct Enforcement] Up Wide. He`s Made A Very Bold Statement And He`s Backed It Back Just A Little Bit When He Said It Is Temporary.

We Are The Change We're Waiting For.

Since There Are No Absolutes, When It's Convenient, You Change The Rules. Do We Know Any Politicians That Have Done That?

Mitt Romney And Paul Ryan Understand That Government Does Not Create Jobs. Entrepreneurs Do.

What I've Tried To Do In Politics Is Two Very Simple Things: Tell The Truth And Do What I Said I Would Do.

Telling The Truth

One Of The Things We've Seen Here Is How Easy It Is For Barack Obama And Hillary Clinton To Get Distracted From Dealing With Radical Islamic Terrorism. They Won't Even Call It By Its Name.

I Care A Heck Of A Lot More About America Than I Do About Any Political Party.

I'm Not Serving In Office Because I Desperately Needed 99 New Friends In The U.s. Senate. Given The Choice Between Being Reviled In Washington, Dc, And Appreciated In Texas, Or Reviled In Texas And Appreciated In Washington, I Would Take The Former 100 Out Of 100 Times.

Marco [rubio] Has Opposed At Every Point Increased Security - Border Security For Those Who Come To Our Country.

Border Security

Every Dollar Not Spent Is Another Dollar You Have To Reach The Voters And Convey A Message.

One Of The Problems With Marco's [rubio] Foreign Policy Is He Has Far Too Often Supported Hillary Clinton And Barack Obama Undermining Governments In The Middle East That Have Helped Radical Islamic Terrorists.

The Reason The Constitution Gives Judges Life Tenure Is So They Can Be Independent Of Political Pressures And Follow The Law.

Donald Trump Tweeted Out To The World A Quote Allegedly From Senator Tom Coburn Impugning My Honesty. Within Hours, Tom Coburn Came Out Publicly And Said, "that Quote Was An Utter Fabrication."

I Like Donald Trump. I Appreciate That He's Focusing On Illegal Immigration. It's An Issue I've Been Fighting A Long, Long Time. I Think People Are Very Concerned, For Example, About The Problems Of Sanctuary Cities And - And That Is Something That's A - That People Are Finally Turning Their Attention To.

Obamacare Is The Nation's Biggest Job Killer And Stands In The Way Of Our Country's Economic Growth And Prosperity. It Should Be Defunded And Repealed. President Obama Should Hear The Pleas From The Untold Number Of Americans Who Are Losing Their Jobs, Wages, And Healthcare Plans, And Congress Should Act Immediately To Stop Obamacare From Inflicting Any More Damage On The Country On Our Hard-working Citizens.

In The Second Amendment, It's Not About Hunting, It's Not About Target Shooting, It's About Protecting Your Home And Your Family And Your Life.

Second Amendment

Marco Rubio Said He Was Personally Open Over A Long Period Of Time To Offering A Path To Citizenship For Immigrants Here Illegally. Rubio's Work On A Comprehensive Immigration Bill Is One Of His Biggest Vulnerabilities With Republican Primary Voters.

I Feel Quite Confident There Will Never Be A Plane On The Face Of The Earth With My Name On It.

But You Know What? There's Far More Pain Involved In Rolling Over, Far More Pain In Hiding.

Hiding In The Shadows

You Think Defending This Nation [americans] Is Expensive, Try Not Defending It. That's A Lot More Expensive.

The [barack] Obama Administration Wants To Take Our Rights To Keep And Bear Arms Away From Us. They Are Trying To Take Our God, And Our Gun. And If They Do That, They Can Impose A Dictatorship Upon Us.

The Message That I Am Conveying To President Trump, To The Cabinet, To Leaders In Both Houses Is Real Simple. Let's Do What We Promised. Let's Deliver On The Promises And If We Do That, We'll Win At The Ballot Box And If We Don't, The People Will Hold Us Accountable For That Too.

Do You Know How Many Aliens Bill Clinton Deported? 12 Million. Do You Know How Many Illegal Aliens, George W. Bush Deported? 10 Million. We Can Enforce The Laws And If We Secure The Border, That Solves The Problem. And As President I Will Solve This Problem And Secure The Border.

I Do Think If We Take The Power Out Of Washington And Bring It Back To The People, If We Defend The Bill Of Rights, Free Speech, Religious Liberty, The Second Amendment, Privacy, If We Repeal Obamacare, Abolish The Irs, If We Get Washington Out Of The Way Of Job Creators, I Think We Can Transform This Country.

What I Put Forward Was An Amendment That Would Have Temporarily Halted Immigration From High-risk Terrorist Countries, But Would Have Started It Up, But I Wanted Them To Go Through Global Entry, Which Is A Program Where We Do Background Checks.

I Don’t Think I’m All That Conservative.

We Need A President That Shows The Courage That Egypt's President Al-sisi, A Muslim, When He Called Out The Radical Islamic Terrorists Who Are Threatening The World.

I Think The People Who Have Been Finding It Harder And Harder To Feed Their Kids - The Young People Who Are Afraid "i'm Never Going To Have A Job And Be Able To Provide For A Family," All Of That Can Turn Around And It Can Turn Around Quickly.

Marco [rubio] Made Reference Earlier To The Litigation Against Trump University. It's Fraud Case. I Want You Think About If This Man Is The Nominee, Having The Republican Nominee On The Stand In Court Being Cross Examined About Whether He Committed Fraud. You Don't Think The Mainstream Media Will Go Crazy On That?

Most Wars Are Not Won In A Single Battle.

The Democrats Right Now Are Living In An Alternative Universe.

I Am Not In The Habit Of Supporting People Who Attack My Wife And Attack My Father.

Listen, If You're A Hardworking Steelworker Or Truck Driver, That Drives Down Your Wages. That Takes Away Your Jobs.

This Country Is Always Changing. But My Point About The Supreme Court Is The Supreme Court Didn't Wait For The Country To Change. Five Unelected Lawyers Overruled 320 Million Americans.

I Think President's Candidates Need Shock Collars Or Something.

Two-thirds Of Americans Think Our Kids Will Have A Worse Life Than We Did. That Is A Powerful Indication We Are On The Wrong Path. I Think We Can Change That, But I'll Tell You, That's What I'm Going To Fight To Do, And The Reason So Many Grass-roots Activists Poured So Much Into It Is They Believed In Our Country. They Believed In Liberty.

To Earn The Support Of Grass-roots Activists, You Have To Spend Real Time, Looking Them In The Eyes, Answering Their Questions. Part Of It Is Also You Have To Have A Message That Inspires People.

I Think President Obama Is The Most Radical President This Nation's Ever Seen. And In Particular, I Think He Is A True Believer In Government Control Of The Economy And Of Our Everyday Lives. In My Judgment, We Are Facing What I Consider To Be The Epic Battle Of Our Generation, Quite Literally The Battle Over Whether We Remain A Free Market Nation.

I Have Never Supported Legalization, And I Do Not Intend To Support Legalization.

Donald Trump Agreed With Hillary Clinton Supporting John Kerry. He Agreed With Hillary Clinton On Being - Quote - "neutral" Between Israel And The Palestinians.

Politicians Make Promises And They Don't Do What They Said They Would Do: The Reason Why So Many Politicians In Washington Are Unhappy With Me.

The Only Way To Win The War Is To Move People's Hearts And Minds.

I Promise You, Donald [trump], There's Nothing About You That Makes Anyone Nervous.

Of Course, Without God, There Is No Value To Life. That Leads To Immorality, That Leads To Sexual Abuse, And There Is No Hope.

The Obama Administration Has Abused The Executive Power, Enforcing Common Core On The States. It Has Used Race To The Top Fans To Effectively Blackmail And Force The States To Adapt Common Core. But In One Silver Lining Of Obama Abusing Executive Power Is That Everything Done With Executive Power Can Be Undone With Executive Power And I Intend To Do That.

You Don't Hear Me Lambasting, Engaging In Personal Attacks, Getting Nasty. I Don't Think That Belongs In Politics.

Personal Attacks

Hispanic Unemployment Is Higher Than The National Average And When The Federal Government Is Killing Small Businesses And Killing Jobs It Is Hurting The Future Of The Hispanic Community And We Need To Carry That Message.

What We Saw With Both Donald Trump And Marco Rubio, That Their Response, Whenever You Point To Anything In Their Record, Is Just To Yell, "liar, Liar, Liar," And To Get Very Personal And To Make Direct Character Attacks. And My Approach, From The Very Beginning Of This President's Campaign, Starting A Year Ago In 2015, Is That I Will Not Respond In Kind. I Do Not Intend To Insult Any Of The Candidates.

If You Join Isis, If You Wage Jihad On America, Then You Are Signing Your Death Warrant.

What I'm Looking Forward To Is Changing The Course America Is On.

Looking Forward

We Will Not Defeat Radical Islamic Terrorists As Long As We Have A President [barack Obama] Unwilling To Utter The Words 'radical Islamic Terrorists'.

He [donald Trump] Said In The Debate - He Said, Gosh, I'm Being Audited For Two Years. Then He Said Three Years. Then He Said Maybe Five Years. Listen, If There's A Problem In His Taxes, The Voters Have A Right To Know, Because Come September, October, The General Election, Folks In The Media Are Going To Make A Heyday About Any Problems In His Taxes.

My Touchstone For Every Question Is The Constitution.

I Do Believe, In The Long Term, We Will Either Get Back To The Principles That Built America Or We Lose This Country. And I'm An Optimist.

What The Usa Freedom Act Did Is It Did Two Things. Number One, It Ended The Federal Government's Bulk Collection Of Phone Metadata Of Millions Of Law-abiding Citizens.

What Many Of The Senate Democrats Are Taking As The Lesson Of This Election Was That Hillary Clinton Is Too Moderate And They Need To Go More Elizabeth Warren, More Bernie Sanders, More Extreme And On The Fringes.

One Of The Most Troubling Aspects Of The Rubio-schumer Gang Of Eight Bill Was That It Gave President [barack] Obama Blanket Authority To Admit Refugees, Including Syrian Refugees Without Mandating Any Background Checks Whatsoever. Now We've Seen What Happened In San Bernardino. When You Are Letting People In, When The Fbi Can't Vet Them, It Puts American Citizens At Risk.

We Need A President Who Is Focused On Defeating Every Single Isis Terrorist And Protecting The Homeland, Which Should Be The First Priority.

It's Just Like Calling Homosexuals 'gays.' Gay Means Happy! You Know, It's Just To Try To Dilute It So That It Becomes Socially Acceptable, And If You Say Anything Against Homosexual Marriage Or Anything - 'oh, You're Not Tolerant.' So We're Supposed To Prostitute Our Principles, On Behalf Of Tolerance.

Homosexual Marriage

I Believe Every Human Life Is A Gift From God And We Should Cherish And Protect And Celebrate Them.

If You Can Stitch Together That Kind Of Coalition With Young People, Bringing Together Conservatives And Evangelicals - And I Will Tell You, In Iowa, We Also Won Reagan Democrats, Working-class Voters.

I Don`t Get Angry Often, But You Mess With My Wife, You Mess With My Kids, That Will Do It Every Time. Donald Trump, You`re A Snivelling Coward And Leave Heidi The Hell Alone.

I Salute The House For Having The Courage To Stand Up And Fight And Defund Obamacare. And I Remain Confident, Hopeful And Optimistic The House Will Stand Their Ground, Will Continue The Fight, Which Means This Issue Is Coming Back To The Senate. And When It Comes Back To The Senate, After The House Stands Their Ground Yet Again, We Will Have An Opportunity For Republicans To Come Home.

I Think The Debate Was Really Some Powerful Moments Of Clarity. We Saw That Donald Trump, Substantively, Has The Same Issues On Issue After Issue As Hillary Clinton. He Agreed With Hillary Clinton On Libya, Toppling The Government In Libya. That Led Directly To Benghazi, Led To Handing That Country Over To Radical Islamic Terrorism.

Whatever The History Of U.s. Intervention In Iraq, Our Priorities Now Should Be To Protect Our People And Defend Our National Security Interests, Not To Try To Resolve An Intractable Religious Divide Some 1,500 Years In The Making.

The Immigrant Experience Of All Of Us Is What Makes Us Americans, Because We Value In Our Dna Liberty And Opportunity Above All Else.
