I Don't Have The Time. It Would Take Me Too Long To Go Through All Of The Math.

Child Support Should Do Just That - Support Children, Not The Federal Government.

Seven Out Of 10 Americans, They Do Not Like The Direction Our Country Is Going. Many Of Our Fellow Citizens Feel Alienated And Have Lost Faith In Our Core Institutions. They Don't Feel Heard And They Don't Feel Represented By Those In Office.

You Have To Remember, Eight Out Of 10 Businesses In America, They File Their Business As Individuals, As People.

Pacs Corrupt The System. They Handle Vast Amounts Of Money And The Money Corrupts.

You Got To Remember, S Corporations Pay One Layer Of Tax, Corporations Pay Two Layers Of Tax. So We Basically See Equivalent, But Here`s The Point. The Rest Of The World, They Tax Their Businesses At An Average Rate In The Industrialized World Of 23 Percent. Our Corporate Is 35. Our Top S Corporate, Small Business Rate Is 44.6 Effectively. This Is Killing Us.

We Have Got To Go And Compete For The Minds And The Hearts And The Votes Of Everybody In This Country, No Matter Who They Are. And What I Think We've Had Is One Party Takes A Group Of People For Granted And Another Party Has Not Paid Attention To Them.

Americans Are Better Off In A Dynamic, Free-enterprise-based Economy That Fosters Economic Growth, Opportunity And Upward Mobility Instead Of A Stagnant, Government-directed Economy That Stifles Job Creation And Fosters Government Dependency.

I See Problems That Can Be Fixed Because I See Solutions That Are Actually Occurring.

I Don`t Think Hillary Clinton Is Going To Support Any Of The Things That You Stand For If You`re A Republican. I`m Going To Go Fight For The Principles And The Solutions That I Believe In And The Candidate That I Think Is So Much More Likely To Put Those Into Law Because I Know Hillary Clinton Won`t Do That. It`s A Binary Choice. It Is Either Donald Trump Or Hillary Clinton. You Don`t Get A Third Option. It`s One Or The Other. And I Know Where I Want To Go.

We Have A Plan For A Stronger Middle Class, With The Goal Of Generating 12 Million New Jobs Over The Next Four Years.

I See Myself As More Of A Policy Maker Than A Political Leader.

What I Keep Telling People Is, Getting Trade Agreements That Are Good For America Is Good For Everybody.

If You're A Person That Has Low Income, You Probably Should Have More Assistance Than A Person With High Income.

Our Debt Is Out Of Control. What Was A Fiscal Challenge Is Now A Fiscal Crisis. We Cannot Deny It; Instead We Must, As Americans, Confront It Responsibly. And That Is Exactly What Republicans Pledge To Do.

Our Point Is We Don`t Want To Sit In The Government And Tell You What You Have To Buy [as A Health Insurance]. We Want To Make This Work So That You Have Choices, So That We Have More Competition.

This Is Again, One Of Our Pieces Of Our 200-pay Plan, Part Of Our Very Ambitious Agenda. We Really Don`t Think We Can Get The Kind Of Economic Growth We Could - We Had The Potential To Get Without Tax Reform.

Donald Trump Heard A Voice Out In America That No One Else Heard.

I Tend To Avoid The Shows That Focus On Politics, Just To Get A Break From It All, I Tried Watching The First Couple Episodes Of 'house Of Cards,' But I Thought It Was Way Over The Top. Members Of Congress Aren't Anything Like Frank Underwood. Most Of Us Are Far Less Interesting.

Hope And Change? We're Not Doing That Anymore. They're Doing Attack And Blame. And So, I Just Think People Are Going To See Through This. They Want Real Leadership. They Want Us To Get This Country On The Right Track.

Each Budgets Reflect Our Priorities, Reflect Our Principles, Reflect Our Vision. We Believe In Balancing The Budget. We Believe In Getting Government To Live Within Its Means. We Believe In Pro-growth Economic Policies, Energy Exploration, Fixing Our Entitlements Before They Go Bankrupt.

Mom Was 50 When My Dad Died. She Got On A Bus Every Weekday For Years, And Rode 40 Miles Each Morning To Madison. She Earned A New Degree And Learned New Skills To Start Her Small Business. It Wasn't Just A New Livelihood. It Was A New Life.

I Think Conditions On The Ground Determine What You Need In A Particular Area.

In Government-directed Economies, The Collective Takes Priority Over The Individual. The Moral Ideal Is Equal Results. That Approach Could Not Be Further Removed From The Real World.

Conventional Wisdom On Government's Role In Inequality Often Has It Backwards. Tax Reforms Have Resulted In A More Progressive Federal Income Tax; Government Transfer Payments Have Become Less Progressive.

We Offer A Better Way For Dealing With Persistent Poverty In This Country. A Way That Shows Poor Americans The World Beyond Liberal Ware Housing And Check-writing Into The Life Everyone Can Find With Opportunity And Independence. The Happiness Of Using Your Gifts And The Dignity Of Having A Job. And You Know What? None Of This Will Happen Under Hillary Clinton. Only With Donald Trump And Mike Pence Do We Have A Chance At A Better Way.

Hey, I'm A Catholic Deer Hunter, I Am Happy To Be Clinging To My Guns And My Religion.

The President Has Declared That The Debate Over Government-controlled Health Care Is Over. That Will Come As News To The Millions Of Americans Who Will Elect Mitt Romney So We Can Repeal Obamacare.

Here's The Problem If You Keep Raising Tax Rates: You Slow Down Economic Growth.

We`re Talking Of Passing The Legislation That Repeals And Replaces Obamacare With A Patient-centered System That Brings Down Prices And Expands Choices, So People Have More - Better Access To More Affordable Healthcare Choices And Options, But That Takes Time To Put Into Place.

Let's Take Our Fight To Our Opponents With Better Ideas. Let's Get On The Offensive And Let's Stay There. Let's Compete In Every Part Of America And Turn Out At The Polls Like Every Last Vote Matters Because It Will.

Faster Economic Growth Helps Raise The Economy Which Raises Revenues. And That Helps Us Tackle The Deficit. There's Two Things We've Got To Do To Get Rid Of This Debt. Deal With Entitlements, That's Why We're Frustrated Health Care Reform Hasn't Passed The Senate Yet.

My Dad Died When I Was Young. He Was A Good And Decent Man. There Are A Few Things He Would Say That Have Just Always Stuck With Me. He'd Say, "son, You're Either Part Of The Problem Or Part Of The Solution." Well, Regrettably, President Obama Has Become Part Of The Problem, And Mitt Romney Is The Solution.

Before The Math And The Momentum Overwhelm Us All, We Are Going To Solve This Nation's Economic Problems. And I'm Going To Level With You: We Don't Have That Much Time. But If We Are Serious, And Smart, And We Lead, We Can Do This.

President Obama Is The Kind Of Politician Who Puts Promises On The Record, And Then Calls That The Record. But We Are Four Years Into This Presidency. The Issue Is Not The Economy As Barack Obama Inherited It, Not The Economy As He Envisions It, But This Economy As We Are Living It.

Not Just The Jobs Building The Infrastructure, But You Need To Have A Good Highway System. You Need To Have A Good Bridge System, A Good Pipeline System, A Good Canal And Waterway System For Economic Growth To Occur, For A Modern Economy To Succeed.

No, I’m Not One (of Those) People Who Votes For Something Then Writes To The Government To Ask Them To Send Us Money. I Did Not Request Any Stimulus Money.

Donald Trump Will Lead A Unified Republican Government. And We Will Work Hand-in- Hand On A Positive Agenda To Tackle America's Big Challenges.

There Is No Doubt Our Democracy Can Be Very Messy And America Does Remain A Sharply Divided Country.

By Failing Seriously To Confront The Most Predicable Economic Crisis In Our Nation's History, The President's Policies Are Committing Us And Our Children To A Diminished Future.

To Borrow A Phrase From My Friend Erskine Bowles On The Fiscal Commission, We Are The Healthiest Looking Horse In The Glue Factory. That Means America Is Still A Step Ahead Of The European Nations Who Are Confronting A Debt Crisis, Of Japan That's In Its Second Lost Decade.

We`re Talking About Bilateral Agreements With Other Countries In Asia, So That We Can Expand Our Influence And Get Countries To Play By Our Set Of Rules. That`s To Me Is Something That`s Really Important.

If We Didn't Propose These Reforms, We Would Not Have Proposed A Budget That Got The Debt Under Control.

Claiming A Person Can't Do Their Job Because Of Their Race Is Sort Of Like The Textbook Definition Of A Racist Comment. I Think That Should Be Absolutely Disavowed. It's Absolutely Unacceptable.

You Know, You Work Hard But Play By The Rules, You Can Rise. You Can Do Well. That's What We're Taught. That's What We Believe. That's What We Think Of As America. Problem Is, There Are Just Generations Of People In This Country Who Do Not Think That.

Health And Human Services Has An Enormous Amount Of Discretion That They Have So Far Used To Make It Harder To Get Affordable Health Care. To Make You Buy What The Government Insists You Must Buy. That Doesn`t Work.

I Think The Democrats Are Trying To Say Is Like In February [2017] It Goes Away And You Won`t Have Your Health Care Plan Tomorrow. That`s Not What We`re Talking About.

You Can Go Back And Rescind An Old Regulation Like Obama Era Regulations. That Was Done Once In 20 Years. We've Done 14 Of Them In Law This Year Alone, Because They Can't Filibuster That.

The Reason I Got Involved In Public Service, By And Large, If I Had To Credit One Thinker, One Person, It Would Be Ayn Rand. The Fight We Are In Here, Make No Mistake About It, Is A Fight Of Individualism Versus Collectivism.

When Governor Romney Asked Me To Join The Ticket, I Said, 'let's Get This Done' - And That Is Exactly, What We're Going To Do.

Let's Move Forward And Fix America's Problems.

We`re Focused On Physically Securing The Border. We`re Focus On Those Who Are Coming To Do Us Harm From Terrorist States And Things Like That. That Is Our Focus, And It`s On Criminal Aliens, People Who Are Violent Criminals Who Have Not Been Deported.

Violent Criminals

What Did The Taxpayers Get Out Of The Obama Stimulus? More Debt. That Money Wasn't Just Spent And Wasted – It Was Borrowed, Spent, And Wasted.

But Just Because We Can't Fix Obamacare Doesn't Mean We Can't Start To Get Rid Of Its Worst Features. On Thursday, The House Will Take Up A Bill To Define 'full Time' As 40 Hours Per Week, So More People Can Work Full Time.

Millions Of Young Americans Have Graduated From College During The Obama Presidency, Ready To Use Their Gifts And Get Moving In Life. Half Of Them Can't Find The Work They Studied For, Or Any Work At All. So Here's The Question: Without A Change In Leadership, Why Would The Next Four Years Be Any Different From The Last Four Years?

In Pennsylvania, 38 Percent Of Pennsylvania Seniors Chose To Get Their Medicare From A Plan Called Medicare Advantage. It's Their Choice. Forty-seven Percent Of Them Are Going To Lose It Under 'obamacare' According To Medicare By 2017.

Every Successful Individual Knows That His Or Her Achievement Depends On A Community Of Persons Working Together.

Take A Moment To Imagine A World Led By China Or Russia. So We Must Lead.

Look, The President Is Elected To Lead And To Face The Country's Biggest Challenges. The Country's Biggest Challenge Domestically Speaking, No Doubt About It, Is A Debt Crisis, And I'm Really Hoping That He Is Going To Give Us A Budget That Tackles This Debt Crisis.

We Have National Security Concerns. There Are Lots Of Concerns Which Must Be Addressed By Actually Securing Our Border. And So, A Physical Security Barrier On The Border Is Something We`ve All - I Voted For It, Like I Said, In 2006 Or 2007.

National Security

That's What We Do In This Country. That's The American Dream. That's Freedom, And I'll Take It Any Day Over The Supervision And Sanctimony Of The Central Planners.

Everyone Who Feels Stuck In The Obama Economy Is Right To Focus On The Here And Now. And I Hope You Understand This Too, If You're Feeling Left Out Or Passed By: You Have Not Failed, Your Leaders Have Failed You.

Mike Pence And Mitch Daniels In Indiana, The Woman Who`s Coming In To Run The Medicaid Program At The Federal Level, Her Name Is Seema Verma, A Brilliant Young Woman, She Made Indiana - Healthy Indiana Work So That Actually Low-income People In Indiana, Actually Have Real Healthcare Coverage That They Get Access To A Doctor. Those Kinds Of Reforms On The State Level We Want See Happen In All 50 States.

The Man Assumed Office Almost Four Years Ago - Isn't It About Time He Assumed Responsibility?

Democracy Is A Series Of Choices.

The Tax Code Is 10 Times The Size Of The Bible With None Of The Good News.

Wages Never Seem To Go Up. The Whole Economy Feels Stuck, And Millions Of Americans, Millions Of Americans, Middle-class Security Is Now Just A Memory. Progressives Like To Talk Like Barack Obama Likes To Talk Forever About Poverty In America. And If A Talk Did Any Good, We'd Have Overcome Those Deep Problems Long Ago. This Explains Why Under The Most Liberal President We Have Had So Far, Poverty In America Is Worse, Especially For Our Fellow Citizens Who Were Promised Better And Who Need It Most.

Big-government Economics Breeds Crony Capitalism. It's Corrupt, Anything But Neutral, And A Barrier To Broad Participation In Prosperity.

Grow Jobs. Get This Economy Growing. Raise Wages. Simplify The Tax System, So It's Easy To Comply With.

And When You Look At The Twentieth-century Experiment With Collectivism-that Ayn Rand, More Than Anybody Else, Did Such A Good Job Of Articulating The Pitfalls Of Statism And Collectivism-you Can't Find Another Thinker Or Writer Who Did A Better Job Of Describing And Laying Out The Moral Case For Capitalism Than Ayn Rand.

The Rate Of Return On Social Security For People Nearing Retirement Is About 1.5 Percent. By The Time Young Children Like Mine Are Ready To Retire, That Rate Of Return Will Be A Negative Percentage.

The Patient Is The Nucleus Of The Health Care System.

My Dad, A Small-town Lawyer, Was Also Named Paul. Until We Lost Him When I Was 16, He Was A Gentle Presence In My Life. I Like To Think He'd Be Proud Of Me And My Sister And Brothers, Because I'm Sure Proud Of Him And Of Where I Come From, Janesville, Wisconsin.

There's A Gaping Difference Between The United States Of America And Putin's Russia.

I Never Believed That One Big Bill Is The Way To Go.

Let The Democrates Go On Making Its Case For More Government Control Over Every Aspect Of Our Lives. More Taxes To Pay. More Debt To Carry. More Rules To Follow. More Judges Who Just Make It Up As They Go Along. We Republicans, We Are Committed To A Federal Government That Acts Again As A Servant Accountable To The People, Following The Constitution, And Venturing Not One Inch Beyond The Consent Of The Governed. We, We In This Party, Offer A Better Way For Our Country Based On Fundamentals That Go Back To The Founding Generation.

We Are All Representatives Of The American People. We All Do Town Hall Meetings. We All Talk To Our Constituents. And I've Got To Tell You, The American People Are Engaged. And If You Think They Want A Government Takeover Of Health Care, I Would Respectfully Submit You're Not Listening To Them.

What Donald Trump Has Been Concerned About, What He`s Talked About, Is When We Get Deals That Don`t Level The Playing Field, When We Get Deals That Aren`t The Kinds Of Best Deals We Can Get, We Want Good Deals, And Those Are Free Trade Deals To Lower The Barriers Between Trade Between Two Countries.

And To This Day, My Mom Is My Role Model.

We Know Better Than To Think That Republicans Can Win Only On The Failures Of Democrats. It Still Comes Down To A Contest Of Ideas, Which Is Really Good News, Ladies And Gentlemen, Because When It's About Ideas, The Advantage Goes To Us. Against Their Dreary Backdrop Of Arrogant Bureaucracies, Pointless Mandates, Reckless Borrowing, Willful Retreat From The World And All That Progressives Have In Store For Us, The Republican Party Stands As A Great Enduring Alternative Party.

We Have A Massive Heroin Opioid Epidemic Problem In America, Part Of That Is Because Of Drugs Coming From The Cartels From The South.

I Spent More Time Talking With This President [donald Trump] In The Last Few Days, I Think, Than I Probably Talked With This Last President [barack Obama] In The Last Six Months. So This Is Something That He Is Working Very Closely Hand In Glove With Congress.

We Think The Administration Can Give Us A Lot Of Regulatory Flexibility Which Will Bring More Insurers In The Marketplace, Which Means More Competition, More Choice Which Drives Down Costs, So That Discretion Can Work In A Good Way Or It Could Work In A Bad Way.

Here`s The Problem With The Tax Code. You Send Your Money To Washington And Then A Few Have A Special Carve Out For Your Business, For Your Industry, If You Do Something Washington Approves Of, Then They`ll Let You Keep Some Of Your Money Back.

And If Small Businesspeople Say They Made It On Their Own, All They Are Saying Is That Nobody Else Worked Seven Days A Week In Their Place. Nobody Showed Up In Their Place To Open The Door At Five In The Morning. Nobody Did Their Thinking, And Worrying, And Sweating For Them.

I Voted To Send People To War.

Donald Trump Is Going To Be An Unconventional President. I Really Think We Have A Great Opportunity In Front Of Us To Fix Problems, Produce Results, And Improve People's Lives.

Who Cares What Donald Trump Tweeted, You Know, On Some Thursday Night, If We Fix America's Big Problems?

Our Number One Responsibility Is To Protect The Homeland.

We Need To Be Honest With The American People About The Problems And The Challenges Ahead And The Solutions That Are Needed To Fix Them. And I Would Argue It's The President Who Has Been Missing In Action On This Front. He Knows We Have A Debt Crisis Coming. All Independent Experts Show Us This. And So He Hasn't Even Given Us A Budget Yet. I Mean, The Law Required That He Was Supposed To Submit A Budget The First Monday In February.

I Offer A Better Way For America With Ideas That Actually Work, A Reformed Tax Code That Rewards Free Enterprise Instead Of Just Enterprising Lobbyists. A Reformed Health Care System That Operates By Free Choice Instead Of By Force And Doesn't Leave You Answering To Cold, Clueless Bureaucrats. A Commitment To A Renewed Commitment To Building A 21st Century Military And Giving Our Veterans The Care That They Were Promised And The Care That They Earned.

I Favored The Idea Of Trans-pacific Partnership, But I Did Not Support The Administration - The [barack] Obama Administration Tpp. There Are Three Or Four Things They Did In That, That I Though Were Terrible Agreements That Were Not Worth Supporting.

I Think What Matters Is That We Have To Show People That We Are An Inclusive Society That-that-that We Want Everyone To Succeed. And I Think There's More That All Of Us As Leaders Have Got To Do To Be Inclusive With People And Make People Feel Like They're Included In Society.

I Think Donald Trump Is New. He's A Business Guy Running For President. So, You're Not Going To See A Conventional Campaign Because He Is Not A Conventional Politician. He's Not Even A Politician.

If You Can Clean Up The Cesspool Of The Tax Code And Give Us A Pro-growth Tax Code, That Is How You Grow The Economy. That`s How You Take Power And Money Out Of Washington And Give It Back To The People And We Are So Excited. We Have A President [donald Trump] That Is Here To Work With Us In Doing That.

I Know President Obama And Secretary Clinton Are Committed To Bringing America Together. This Needs To Be A Time Of Redemption, Not A Time Of Recrimination.

Obamacare Comes To More Than Two Thousand Pages Of Rules, Mandates, Taxes, Fees, And Fines That Have No Place In A Free Country.

Look At The Potential For America. Look At The Direction We've Been Going. Look At The Direction We Need To Go.

We Can't Keep Measuring Success By How Much Money Are We Throw At Programs. We Have To Measure Success As, 'is It Working?'

Measure Of Success

Now It's A War On Women; Tomorrow It's Going To Be A War On Left-handed Irishmen Or Something Like That.

So, In Europe, They're Cutting People's Retirement And Health Benefits. And That's What We Want To Avoid From Happening. They're Raising Taxes, Entering A Recession. That's The Kind Of Economic Program That President Obama Has Put In Place.

When I Was Waiting Tables, Washing Dishes, Or Mowing Lawns For Money, I Never Thought Of Myself As Stuck In Some Station In Life. I Was On My Own Path, My Own Journey, An American Journey Where I Could Think For Myself, Decide For Myself, Define Happiness For Myself.

Under The Barack Obama Rules, If You Wanted To Help The Military, If You Wanted A Pay Raise For The Soldiers, If You Wanted To Buy New Airplanes And New Ships And More Munitions, A Dollar For That, You Had To Have A Dollar Domestic Spending. We Just Broke That Parity. That's The Biggest Victory We Could Have Had: $25 Billion Year Over Year For Our Military, To Begin To Rebuild Our Military, Without That Kind Of Corresponding Increase In Domestic Discretionary Spending.

This Is A Time To Unify, This Is A Time To Heal.

It's No Coincidence That Trust In Government Is At An All-time Low Now That The Size Of Government Is At An All-time High.

There`s A Long Conversation We`re Going To Have About How To Enforce Immigration Laws. But Physically Securing The Border Is Essential.

You've Got To Have Tax Reform To Get Faster Economic Growth. Faster Economic Growth Is Necessary For Us To Get Our Debt Under Control.

I Don't Consult Polls To Tell Me What My Principles Are Or What Our Policies Should Be.

If You're Running For President, You've Got To Do A Lot Of Things To Line Up A Candidacy. I've Not Done Any Of Those Things. It's Not My Plan. My Plan Is To Be A Good Chairman Of The House Budget Committee And Fight For The Fiscal Sanity Of This Nation.

There Are Various Different Kinds Of Conservatives And Different Kinds Of Republicans. We All Come From Different Corners Of Our Party. The Key Here Is Not Only To Unify And Merge These Approaches, But To Also Invite Everyone Else In America To Get Us Focused On Our Solutions.

Having What I Call Crony Capitalism, Where You Take Money From Successful Small Businesses, Spend It In Washington On Favored Industries, On Favored Individuals, Picking Winners And Losers In The Economy, That's Not Pro-growth Economics. That's Not Entrepreneurial Economics. That's Not Helping Small Businesses. That's Cronyism, That's Corporate Welfare.

There Is A Reason People In America Are Disappointed And Restless. If Opportunity Seems Like It's Been Slipping Away, That's Because It Has. And Liberal Progressive Ideas Have Done Exactly Nothing To Help.

We Believe, As Our Founders Did, That 'the Pursuit Of Happiness' Depends Upon Individual Liberty; And Individual Liberty Requires Limited Government.

Pursuit Of Happiness

People Like Me Who Are Reform-minded Ignore The People Who Say, 'just Criticize And Don't Do Anything And Let's Win By Default.' That's Ridiculous.

I Give Out Atlas Shrugged As Christmas Presents, And I Make All My Interns Read It.

Christmas Present

With All Their Attack Ads, The President Is Just Throwing Away Money...and He's Pretty Experienced At That.

Our Two Party Platforms Were Emphatic About Jerusalem Being The Capital Of Israel. For The Obama Administration To Remove This Language From The Democratic Party Platform Drives A Wedge Into One Of The Few Issues That Our Two Parties Agreed On.

Politics Has Become A Blood Sport That Goes Beyond Just The Person Whose Name Is On The Ballot.

I Think [donald Trump] Does Understand That. We Talked A Great Deal About The Separation On Power And The Constitution. And We`re Very Excited About What He`s Doing Because What He`s Doing Is Pulling Back What We See As Unconstitutional Executive Actions From The Past Presidents.

Donald Trump Turned Politics On Its Head.

We Don't Have A Tax Revenue Problem In Washington, We Have A Spending Problem In Washington.

What We Heard Today Was Not Fiscal Leadership From Our Commander-in-chief, What We Heard Today Was A Political Broadside From Our Campaigner-in-chief.

Going On And Getting Good Bilateral Agreement Is A Better Way [than Trans-pacific Partnership Agreements], And I`m Fine With That Strategy. I Think That Strategy Can Work As Well.

The Secret To Understanding Me Is, I'm Not Trying To Be Anybody Other Than Who I Actually Am. People Want Candid, Refreshing Leadership. And I've Always Tried To Go With Solutions. You Know, I've Always Tried To Say, Here's How We Get Our Economy Growing, Here's Why We Get Our Debt Under Control. That's What Mitt Romney Is Offering.

We Do Not Have A Debt Crisis Right Now, But We See It Coming. We Know It's Irrefutably Happening. And The Point We're Trying To Make With Our Budget Is Let's Get Ahead Of This Problem.

There Are A Lot Of Regulations That Are Really Just Crushing Jobs. Look At The Coal Miners In The Rust Belt That Are Getting Out Of Work. Look At The - Look At The Loggers And The Timber Workers And The Paper Mills In The West Coast. Look At The Ranchers Or Farmers In The Midwest With Regulations.

I Think You Can Walk And Chew Gum At The Same Time. I Think You Can Oppose The President On Some Issue That You Fundamentally Disagree With, But Also Work With The Other Party On Issues You Do Agree With.

We Will Not Spend Four Years Blaming Others, We Will Take Responsibility.

Look, I Am Not Worried About Washington Cutting Too Much Spending Too Fast. I Mean, The Kinds Of Spending Cuts We're Talking About Just Right Now Are $100 Billion Out Of A $3.7 Trillion Budget.

On Behalf Of Every Republican And Every Democrat In Congress, On Behalf Of The Whole House, I Want Our Friends In The Jewish Community To Know That We Stand With Them.

Look, Only In Washington Is Not Raising Taxes Considered A Tax Cut. Nobody's Getting A Tax Cut Here. We're Not Cutting Taxes. We're Preventing Tax Increases From Occurring.

I Do Have A Concern That If We Just Say No Trans-pacific Partnership, We`re Done, We`re Ignoring The Region, And Then, Yes, I Think We`re Creating A Void For China, But That Is Not What The President [donald Trump] Is Saying.

I Believe In A Free Society, Where Aspiration And Effort Can Make The Difference In Every Life. Where Your Starting Point Is Not Your Destiny And Where Your First Chance Is Not Your Only Chance.

We Must Promote Upward Mobility, Starting With Solutions That Speak To Our Broken Education System, Broken Immigration Policy, And Broken Safety-net Programs That Foster Dependency Instead Of Helping People Get Back On Their Feet.

We Will Not Duck The Tough Issues, We Will Lead.

A Lot Of People Don't Believe In The American Idea Anymore.

I Really Don't Have Tremendous Political Ambition. I Have Policy Ambition.

There Is Relief Coming. This Is Good For America. This Means That We Can Lift The Oppressive Weight Of The Regulatory State. We Can Restore The Constitution.

We Do Not Have A Functioning Market In The True Sense Of The Word In Health Care. That's A Layer Of Transparency That's Sorely Needed In America.

When It Comes To Jobs, President Obama Makes The Jimmy Carter Years Look Like Good Old Days. If We Fired Jimmy Carter Then, Why Would We Rehire Barack Obama Now?

Life Is Short, You Better Make The Most Of It.

There Are Instances In Which American Interests Align With Russia And There Are Those Where They Don't. And So The Question Is, Can We Help Steer Russia To Being Something That Doesn't Conflict With Our Interests And Something That - And A Country That Aligns With Our Interests?

Mitt Romney And I Know The Difference Between Protecting A Program, And Raiding It. Ladies And Gentlemen, Our Nation Needs This Debate. We Want This Debate. We Will Win This Debate.

Back In 2008, Candidate Obama Called A $10 Trillion National Debt 'unpatriotic' - Serious Talk From What Looked To Be A Serious Reformer. Yet By His Own Decisions, President Obama Has Added More Debt Than Any Other President Before Him, And More Than All The Troubled Governments Of Europe Combined. One President, One Term, $5 Trillion In New Debt.

I Really Want To Focus On Economic Growth And Growing The Economy.

The Perfection Of Our Union, Especially Our Commitment To Equality Of Opportunity, Has Been A Story Of Constant Striving To Live Up To Our Founding Principles. This Is What Abraham Lincoln Meant When He Said, 'in Giving Freedom To The Slave, We Assure Freedom To The Free - Honorable Alike In What We Give, And What We Preserve.'

If We Don't Make Tough Decisions Today Our Children Are Going To Have To Make Much, Much Tougher Decisions Tomorrow.

Mr. Vice President, I Know You're Under A Lot Of Duress To Make Up For Lost Ground, But I Think People Would Be Better Served If We Don't Keep Interrupting Each Other.

Our Rights Come From Nature And God, Not Government.

Every Now And Then, President Obama Sorta Drops His Veil. He's Less Coy About His Philosophy, He Sort Of Reveals His True Governing Philosophy, What He Really Believes.

Seven Hundred And Sixteen Billion Dollars, Funneled Out Of Medicare By President Obama. An Obligation We Have To Our Parents And Grandparents Is Being Sacrificed, All To Pay For A New Entitlement We Didn't Even Ask For. The Greatest Threat To Medicare Is Obamacare, And We're Going To Stop It.

We Need To Reclaim Our American System Of Limited Government, Low Taxes, Reasonable Regulations And Sound Money, Which Has Blessed Us With Unprecedented Prosperity. And It Has Done More To Help The Poor Than Any Other Economic System Ever Designed.

We Will Work In Conjunction With The Administration, Passing Legislation, Repealing And Replacing Obamacare. When That Actually Takes Place, Will Take Some Time, And The Administration Will Help Determine How We Phase One Out And Replace And Phase In Its Replacement. The Reason We`re Acting Now Is Because Obamacare Is Collapsing Under Its Own Weight.

The Work Ahead Will Be Hard. These Times Demand The Best Of Us - All Of Us, But We Can Do This. Together, We Can Do This. We Can Get This Country Working Again. We Can Get This Economy Growing Again. We Can Make The Safety Net Safe Again. We Can Do This.

Together We Can

I Think [donald Trump] Is Now Talking About Engaging In Countries On A Bilateral Basis.

We Believe A Renewed Commitment To Limited Government Will Unshackle Our Economy And Create Millions Of New Jobs And Opportunities For All People, Of Every Background, To Succeed And Prosper. Under This Approach, The Spirit Of Initiative - Not Political Clout - Determines Who Succeeds.

Close Loopholes, Close The Special Interest Washington Carve Outs And That Means More Incomes Subject To Taxation So We`re Going To Lower The Rates On Our Businesses And Be Fair.

Ultimately, The Law Will Collapse Under Its Own Weight. Until Then, We Have To Start Building A Better Health Care System In Its Place. And We Need To Start With A New Principle: Put The Patient In The Driver's Seat. That's How We Can Build A Healthy Economy.

A Romney-ryan Administration Will Protect And Strengthen Medicare, For My Mom's Generation, For My Generation, And For My Kids And Yours.

Let's Show America Our Best And Nothing Less!

That's What The Romney Plan Is All About, How To Get Jobs Created, How To Get This Debt And Deficit Under Control, How To Revive Small Businesses So We Can Create Jobs, And How To Bring Growth And Opportunity To Society Instead Of This Class Warfare, Instead Of Speaking To People Like They're Stuck In Some Class Or Station In Life.

Our Tax Plan By The Way Shows The Vast, Vast Majority Of Americans, Upwards Of 96 Percent Can Fill Out Their Taxes On A Postcard.

I Do Politics In Order To Do Policy.

If We Keep Kicking The Can Down The Road, If We Follow The President's Lead Or If We Pass The Senate Budget, Then We Will Have A Debt Crisis. Then Everybody Gets Hurt. You Know Who Gets Hurt First And The Worst In A Debt Crisis? The Poor, The Elderly. That's What We're Trying To Prevent From Happening.

We`re Not Going To End The Medicaid. We`re Going To Give The Governors More Control And Leeway To Bring Innovative Reforms To Make Medicaid Work.

Donald Trump Is Communicating With People In America Who've Felt Like They Have Not Been Listened To.

The Condition Of Your Birth Doesn't Determine The Outcome Of Your Life. This Is America.

Do We Believe That The Goal Of Government Is To Promote Equal Opportunity For All Americans To Make The Most Of Their Lives? Or, Do We Now Believe That Government's Role Is To Equalize The Results Of Peoples Lives?

We`re The Generous Country, We`re The Ones That Open Our Doors To Other Countries, And In Many Cases We Get Taken Advantage Of Because Of That.

Ayn Rand More Than Anyone Else Did A Fantastic Job Of Explaining The Morality Of Capitalism, The Morality Of Individualism.

To My Great Disappointment, It Appears That The Politics Of Division Are Making A Big Comeback. Many Americans Share My Disappointment - Especially Those Who Were Filled With Great Hope A Few Years Ago, When Then-senator Obama Announced His Candidacy In Springfield, Illinois.

The Moral Case For Individual Initiative In A Free Economy Holds That People Have A God-given Right To Use Their Creativity To Produce Things That Improve Our Lives.

I Never Asked For Stimulus.

We`re Working With The Administration On Working On Tax Reform. You Can Go To Better.gop And See Our Blueprint, That`s What We`re Working Off Of. We Got To Get Our Tax Rates Down.

The People Of Wisconsin Have Been Good To Me. I've Tried To Live Up To Their Trust. And Now I Ask Those Hardworking Men And Women, And Millions Like Them Across America, To Join Our Cause And Get This Country Working Again. When Governor Romney Asked Me To Join The Ticket, I Said, 'let's Get This Done' - And That Is Exactly, What We're Going To Do.

In America, We Have A Bifurcated Country, We Have A Polarized Country. One Of The Reasons I Think It's Polarized Is Because Of Identity Politics On The Left.

Identity Politics

America Is More Than Just A Place...it's An Idea. It's The Only Country Founded On An Idea. Our Rights Come From Nature And God, Not Government. We Promise Equal Opportunity, Not Equal Outcomes.

We Have A Real Economic Growth Problem In America. We Are Limping Along. Wages Are Flat. And Jobs Aren’t Being Created Near To The Extent That They Could And Should Be. So We Think Regulatory Relief Is Very, Very Important.

Our Founders Got It Right When They Wrote In The Declaration Of Independence That Our Rights Come From Nature And Nature's God, Not From Government.

There's No "agreement." The President Donald Trump And The Chief Of Staff Called Me From Air Force One Today To Discuss What Was Discussed - And It Was A Discussion, Not An Agreement Or Negotiation. We Need Border Security And Enforcement As Part Of Any Agreement. I Think That's Something The Democrats Are Beginning To Understand.

I Think Preexisting Conditions Is A Very Important Feature Of Any Healthcare System.

The Stimulus Was A Case Of Political Patronage, Corporate Welfare, And Cronyism At Their Worst.

We Think That`s Necessary Just As A Foundation For Economic Growth. It`s Not The Jobs In And Of Themselves, Which You Do Make By Building Bridges And Things Like This, But It`s The Economic Growth That Comes From Having A Modern Infrastructure That Is In Dire Need Of Repair.

What's Missing Is Leadership In The White House. And The Story That Barack Obama Does Tell, Forever Shifting Blame To The Last Administration, Is Getting Old. The Man Assumed Office Almost Four Years Ago - Isn't It About Time He Assumed Responsibility?

A Free Economy And Strong Communities Honor The Dignity Of Every Person, Rewarding Effort With Justice, Promoting Upward Mobility, And Building Solidarity Among Citizens.

My State, Scott Walker, Our Governors, Reformed Medicaid So It Actually Works, So That The Doctors Will Take The Program.

I Think Ayn Rand Did The Best Job Of Anybody To Build A Moral Case Of Capitalism, And That Morality Of Capitalism Is Under Assault.
