This Guy [donald Trump] Has Not Offered A Single Serious Policy Proposal, Which Is Important If You Want To Be President Of The United States.

I Haven't Thought About Aspirations For The Future. I Like Politics, I Like Serving The Public, And We'll See If God Offers Us Another Opportunity In The Future.

I'm All For Reforming Our Higher Education System, In The 21st Century, To Have The Skills You Need For A Middle-class Job, You Need Higher Education Of Some Form Or Fashion.

The Air Strikes Are Important [to Fight Isis], But We Need To Have An Air Force Capable Of It. And Because Of The Budget Cuts We Are Facing In This Country, We Are Going To Be Left With The Oldest And The Smallest Air Force We Have Ever Had. We Have To Reverse Those Cuts, In Addition To The Cuts To Our Navy And In Addition To The Cuts To Our Army, As Well.

We Call That The American Dream, But In Fact, It's A Universal Dream Of A Better Life That People Have All Over The World. It Is A Reminder That Every Country In The World Has Rich People. What Makes America Special Is That We Have Millions And Millions Of People That Are Not Rich, That Through Hard Work And Perseverance Are Able To Be Successful.

It's Tax Day And While Many Americans Are Filing Their Taxes With A Groan, Taxpayers In The Badger State Have Reason To Cheer.

There Is Not A Single Person In The National Defense Apparatus Of This Country That Can Guarantee You Are Going To Be 100 Percent Right. And That's Why As President, I'll Take This Very Seriously.

People Have A Right To Be A Democrat. People Have A Right To Be Wrong. I Know They're The Same Thing.

The Media Coverage For Donald Trump Has Been Almost Cheerleading Over The Last Couple Weeks. And I'm Convinced It's Because Many In The Press Want Him To Be The Nominee.

It Has Inspired The Many Leaders Who Played A Key Role In Abolishing Slavery, Protecting Civil Rights And, Hopefully One Day, Becoming A Nation Where All Life From Conception To Natural Death Is Protected.

It Wouldn't Be Bad To Have The Secret Service Keeping An Eye On My Teenage Daughter. I Personally Am Not Troubled By The Fact That There Would Be A Couple Of Big Guys With Earpieces Beside Her, Just In Case.

What Was The Difference Between Us That Allowed Me To Attain So Much In A Short Time? America. America Was The Difference. I Had Been Born A Citizen Of The Greatest Nation In All Of Human History.

I Would Say We Must Win The Information War Against Isis. Every War We Have Ever Been Involved In Has Had A Propaganda Informational Aspect To It.

The 21st Century Looks Different. It's Been Very Disruptive. It Has Created A Lot Of Insecurity. We Have To Adjust To That, Because The 21st Century Has Real Promise.

You Cannot Give Up On The American Dream. We Cannot Allow Our Fears And Our Disappointments To Lead Us Into Silence And Into Inaction.

After Eight Years Of Barack Obama And One Crazy Election, We Almost Got It Wrong. We Came This Close. But Then We Remembered Who We Were. Then We Remembered What America Was.

Donald Trump Is A World-class Con Artist. He Conned All These People That Signed Up For Trump University. Now He's Trying To Do The Same Thing To Republican Voters. He's Trying To Convince Them That Somehow He's The Guy That Is Going To Stand Up To Illegal Immigration, But He Hires Illegal Immigrants, That He's Fighting For American Workers, But He's Hiring Foreign Workers For His Hotels, That He's Going To Bring Back Jobs From China And From Mexico, But, In Fact, He's Creating Jobs In China And Mexico, Because That's Where All Of His Suits And Ties That He Sells Are Made.

And That Is The Same As Always.

Religious Freedom Is Often Referred To As America's First Freedom. Our Country Was Founded By Religious Exiles And Built On The Belief That God Has Given All People Certain Inalienable Rights.

Conservatism Is Not About Leaving People Behind. Conservatism Is About Empowering People To Catch Up, To Give Them The Tools At Their Disposable That Make It Possible For Them To Access All The Hope, All The Promise, All The Opportunity That America Offers.

How Is Hillary Clinton Going To Lecture Me About Living Paycheck To Paycheck? I Was Raised Paycheck To Paycheck.

Our Government Does Not Exist To Decide The Rights, Nor To Grant Them. Our Government Exists To Protect Them. And That Is Why We Have A Constitution That Limits The Power Of The Federal Government To A Few Specific, But Important Things And We Have Abandoned That.

Unlike Any Other Leader In Modern American History, We Are Led Today By A President That Has Decided To Pit Americans Against Each Other.

Conservatives Believe That We Need To Defeat Radical Islam Not Because We Want War But Because Isis And Other Radical Islamist Are Enemies Of Peace And That's Why We Need A President, Who In Which Under Whom The Best Intelligence Agencies In The World Will Find Terrorists And The Best Military In The World Will Destroy Them. And If We Capture Them Alive, A President That Will Bring Them To The United States.

I Believe In Freedom Of Speech. And I Believe That Spending On Political Campaigns Is A Form Of Political Speech That Is Protected Under The Constitution.

There Are People That Borrow $36,000 To Go To Trump University, And They Are Suing Him Now. Thirty-six Thousand Dollars To Go A University, That's A Fake School.

How Can I Justify The Cuban Adjustment Act When There Are People Coming From Cuba Saying That They Come - That They Have - That They Should Be Treated Differently From Other Migrants? But They're Going Back To That Country.

I Think The American People Are Gonna Be Reasonable With What Do You Do With Someone Who Has Been In This Country For 10 Or 12 Years Who Hasn't Otherwise Violated Our Laws - Because If They're A Criminal They Can't Stay. They'll Have To Undergo A Background Check, Pay A Fine, Start Paying Taxes. And Ultimately, They'll Given A Work Permit And That's All They're Gonna Be Allowed To Have For At Least 10 Years.

Here's The Problem With Common Core. The Department Of Education, Like Every Federal Agency, Will Never Be Satisfied. They Will Not Stop With It Being A Suggestion. They Will Turn It Into A Mandate.in Fact, What They Will Begin To Say To Local Communities Is, You Will Not Get Federal Money Unless Do You Things The Way We Want You To Do It. And They Will Use Common Core Or Any Other Requirements That Exists Nationally To Force It Down The Throats Of Our People In Our States.

I Would Just Say It's Not Good For The Country To Have 11 Million People Here Who We Don't Know Who They Are, Where They're Living.

When, Unfortunately, People Lose Their Jobs Who Work At A Dental Clinic As A Medical Billing Specialist, Or The Paralegal At A Law Firm Loses Their Job, Or The Courier At The Law Firm Loses A Job, These Are Not Millionaires And Billionaires.

With Unemployment Still Abysmally High, The Obama Economy Is Crushing Hispanics' Dreams For Their Children To Live A Better Life.

The Government Doesn't Run The Economy. The Economy Is Run By The Private Sector. The Job Of The President Is To Ensure We [the State] Have Policies That Allow The Private Sector To Grow And Prosper.

Conservatism Means Believing In A Strong National Defense. Not Because We Want War, But Because We Love Peace. Because History Has Taught Us A Painful Lesson, That Weakness Is The Enemy Of Peace. That Weakness Invites Violence, That Weakness Invites War.

Moammar Gadhafi And The Revolt Against Gadhafi Was Not Started By The United States. It Was Started By The Libyan People.

Being A Conservative Can Never Be About Simply An Attitude. Being A Conservative Cannot Simply Be About How Long You're Willing To Scream, How Angry You're Willing To Be Or How Many Names You're Willing To Call People. That Is Not Conservative.
