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.

Listen, Bernie Sanders Talks About How Washington Is Corrupt, Both Parties Are In Bed With The Lobbyists And Special Interests. I Think He's Exactly Right.

Because The Math Is, If You - 5 Percent Of A Million Is A Lot More Than 5 Percent Of A Thousand. So Yeah, Someone Who Makes More Money, Numerically, It's Gonna Be Higher. But The Greatest Gains, Percentage-wise, For People, Are Gonna Be At The Lower End Of Our Plan.

I Want You To Take A Good, Hard Look At Me, America, Because This Is Exactly What You’ve Got Coming.

Voters Are Hungry For Principled, Conservative Fighters - Because The Threat To Our Liberties From Washington Never Has Been Greater.

Marco Rubio Was Fighting To Grant Amnesty And Not To Secure The Border, I Was Fighting To Secure The Border. And This Also Goes To Trust, Listening On To Campaign Trails. Candidates All The Time Make Promises. You Know, Marco Said," He Learned That The American People Didn't Trust The Federal Government."

When Donald Trump Is In Trouble, He Starts Yelling, He Starts Screaming. He Starts Insulting. He Starts Cursing.

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.

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

A Lot Of Times Your Spouse Sees Things About You That You Don't Necessarily See.

You Cannot Build A Grass-roots Campaign Unless You Are Connecting With People.

Politically Correct Enforcement That`s Out There In Our Society Has Tightened Things Down To The Point Where People Just Walk On Eggshells And They Are Afraid To Address Things That Are Really On Their Mind.

I Am Long Term Optimistic And Short Term Pessimistic On Immigration. Long Term, I'm Optimistic Because There's A Lotta Bipartisan Agreement Outside Of Washington On Immigration. There's Overwhelming Bipartisan Agreement, Number One, That We Need To Secure The Borders. That We Need To Finally Do Something To Stop Illegal Immigration.

We Need The Private Sector's Help, Because Government Is Not Innovating. Technology Is Running Ahead By Leaps And Bound. The Private Sector Will Help, Just As I Helped After 9/11. But They Must Be Engaged, And They Must Be Asked. I Will Ask Them. I Know Them.

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 Believe You [donald Trump] Know Politicians Better Than I Do Because For 40 Years You've Been Funding Liberal Democratic Politicians.

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

In The 13 Months I've Been In The Senate, It Has Become Apparent To Me The Single Thing That Republican Politicians Hate And Fear The Most, And That Is When They're Forced To Tell The Truth. It Makes Their Heads Explode.

As Conservatives, As Republicans, We Keep Winning Elections. We Got A Republican House, We've Got A Republican Senate, And We Don't Have Leaders Who Honor Their Commitments. I Will Always Tell The Truth And Do What I Said I Would Do.

I Think Too Many Politicians Are Not Listening To The Men And Women They Represent, And If We're Going To Change The Path America Is On, We Have Got To Be Fighting For Policies Not That Benefit The Giant Corporations And The Banks And The Special Interests And The Lobbyists, Which Is What Washington Focuses On Every Day, But Instead Every Policy Needs To Focus On The Working Men And Women, The Truck Drivers And The Steelworkers, And The Young People.

We Will Stop The Terrorist Attacks Before They Occur Because We Will Not Be Prisoners To Political Correctness. Rather, We Will Speak The Truth. Border Security Is National Security And We Will Not Be Admitting Jihadists As Refugees.

Border Security

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.

If I'm Elected President, Let Me Tell You About My First Day In Office. The First Thing I Intend To Do Is To Rescind Every Illegal And Unconstitutional Executive Action Taken By Barack Obama.

I'm Not Going To Play Pundit On Donald Trump And Criticize Him. I Will Say The Media's Treatment Of That Illustrates A Very, Very Different - I Mean, It Dominated The News For A Week To 10 Days Once He Was The Nominee. In The Primary, It Didn't Get, Seemingly, Even 30 Seconds Of News.

Every Day, I Come Home With A Spring In My Step. We've Got To Work Together To Stop The Obama Agenda And Take This Country Back.

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.

I Am Perfectly Happy To Compromise And Work With Anybody. Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians. I’ll Work With Martians. If — And The If Is Critical — They're Willing To Cut Spending And Reduce The Debt.

You Can't Get To A Balanced Budget And Begin To Pay Down Debt And Thus Create Jobs In This Country If You Don't Have Specific Plans To Make It Work.

In My View, Republican Primary Debates Ought To Be Moderated By People Who Would Vote In A Primary.

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

I Have Spent Almost My Entire Adult Life Fighting To Defend The Religious Liberty Of Every American To Follow His Or Her Faith And Live According To His Conscience.

It Is Worth Emphasizing That Iran Released Our Hostages In 1981 The Day Ronald Reagan Was Sworn Into Office.

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.

We're Seeing Is Young People Who Are Optimistic, Who Want A Future, Want Our Constitutional Rights, Are Coming To Our Campaign.

On His [marco Rubio] Gang Of Eight Bill, He Would Have Liberalized Immigration, But He Did Not - And He Steadfastly Opposed Any New Border Security Requirements For Refugees Or Students.

About 65 Percent Of Republicans Believe That Donald Trump Is Not The Best Candidate To Go Head To Head With Hillary Clinton.

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.

I Was Not A Community Organizer Before I Was Elected To The Senate, I Spent Five And A Half Years As The Solicitor-general Of Texas, The Chief Lawyer For The State Of Texas In Front Of The U.s. Supreme Court.

I Think The First And Principle Objective Is To Repeal Obamacare Before It Does Lasting, Fundamental Damage To Our Health Care System, To Our Individual Liberty, To The Relationship Each Of Us Has With His Or Her Doctor.

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.

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 There's Not A Message That People Care About, They're Not Going To Work On The Campaign.

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.

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.

If You're Campaigning Against Obamacare, But You're Also Having To Defend Yourself For Closing The Government, That Seems To Take Away The Asset From You.

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.

I Do Think We Should Be Focused On Substance And Record. If You Want A Candidate Who Opposes Amnesty, Who Opposes Citizenship For The 12 Million People Here Illegally, I'm The Only Candidate In The Race Who Opposes That.

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.

The Specific Question Was Visa Overstays.current Federal Law Requires A Biometric Exit-entry System When You Come In On A Visa. And The [barack] Obama Administration Is Just Ignoring Federal Law. Forty Percent Of Illegal Immigration Is Not People Who Cross The Borders Illegally. It's People Who Come Legally On A Visa And Never Leave.

We Need Leaders Who Will Stand Unapologetically In Defense Of Marriage And Life.

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

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.

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.

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.

A Debate Actually Is A Policy Issue But I Will Say This - Gosh, If You Guys Ask One More Mean Question, I May Have To Leave The Stage.

I Am Glad To Welcome My Friend Rand Paul Into The 2016 Gop Primary. Rand Is A Good Friend, And We Have Worked Side By Side On Many Issues. I Respect His Talent, His Passion, And The Work He Has Done For Kentuckians And Americans In The U.s. Senate. His Entry Into The Race Will No Doubt Raise The Bar Of Competition, Help Make Us All Stronger, And Ultimately Ensure That The Gop Nominee Is Equipped To Beat Hillary Clinton And To Take Back The White House For Republicans In 2016.

Under President (george W.) Bush, Prosecution Of Gun Crimes Was 30 Percent Higher Than It Is Under President Obama.

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

I Was Born In Cuba. At The Age Of 14 Years Of Age I Was Involved In A Revolution. We Were Suffering From A Very Cruel, Oppressive Dictatorship, And The Revolution Started In The High Schools And The Universities. So When I Was 14, I Was Involved In The Revolution. I Was In The Revolution Four Years. During That Time, A Young, Charismatic Leader Rose Up In Cuba, Talking About Hope And Change. His Name Was Fidel Castro.

America Is At War. Our Enemy Is Not Violent Extremism. It Is Not Some Unnamed Malevolent Force. It Is Radical Islamic Terrorist.

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.

Free Enterprise System Was Born The Second Year The Pilgrims Were Here. And Of Course, It Has Made America The Most Prosperous Country In The World.

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

What Obama Did Wrong With Executive Power Is He Tried To Change The Law. He Tried To Ignore The Law. And Under The Constitution, Article I, All Legislative Authority Is Vested In Congress.

Executive Power

I Think It's An Enormous Blessing To Be The Child Of An Immigrant Who Fled Oppression, Because You Realize How Fragile Liberty Is And How Easily It Can Be Taken Away.

We Should Be Breaking Down Barriers, Not Building Walls.

Any Republican, Especially Any Conservative, Expects The Media To Be Hostile. That's Just The Reality Of Being A Republican. You've Got To Be Prepared To Deal With That.

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.

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

I Will Tell You, As President, I'm Not Going To Be Neutral. America Will Stand Unapologetically With Israel.

On Domestic Policy, Donald Trump Agreed With Barack Obama And Hillary Clinton On The Wall Street Bailout, The Tarp Bailout Of Big Bank. I Think The Government Ought To Be Standing With Mainstream, With Working Men And Women. And Then You Put On Top Of That The Ethical Issues, Whether It Is Refusing To Release His Taxes. And That's A Real Problem.

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

We Have 400,000 Small Businesses Forming Every Year In This Country. How Great Is That? They Are Employing Themselves, They Are Potentially Employing Others. The Bad News Is, We Have 470,000 Going Out Of Business Every Year. And Why? They Cite Obamacare.

I Think We Need To Be Fighting For The Working Men And Women Of This Country, Not The Moneyed New York Interests.

If I'm Elected President, We Will Secure The Border. We Will Triple The Border Patrol. We Will Build A Wall That Works And I'll Get Donald Trump To Pay For It.

It Is Very Simple To Be Likeable In Washington. You Just Go Along To Get Along. You Just Do What Your Leadership Wants.

Were It Not For The Transformative Love Of Jesus Christ, I Would Have Been Raised By A Single Mom Without My Father In The Household, This Is Our Fight, And That Is Why I'm Running For President.

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.

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

Donald Trump Claims - He Did Interview After The Debate Where He Said, Well, Gosh, You Can't Find Americans To Do These Jobs To Be Waiters Or Waitresses Or Bellhops.what Ridiculous Nonsense. "the New York Times" Reported Roughly 300 Americans Applied For Those Jobs. He Only Hired 17. Instead, He Brought In Foreign Workers, Because They're Captive Workers, Because You Can Pay Them Less Because They Can't Leave.

Enough Of These Little Kitty Cats We Keep Sending To Washington. David Dewhurst Will Compromise Every Day In The U.s. Senate... It's What He's Done Every Day In State Government.

I Endeavor To Shine A Light On What's Happening Behind Closed Doors In The Back-door Deal Making That So Many Americans Understand Is Going On But They Don't Quite Understand How Or Why, But They Know That Our Elected Leaders Are Lying To Us.

I'm An Optimist At Heart.

Democratic Senators Are More Scared Of Their Base Than They Are Of The Voters.

I Am Blessed To Receive A Word From God Every Day In Receiving The Scriptures And Reading The Scriptures. And God Speaks Through The Bible.

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.

Net Neutrality' Is Obamacare For The Internet; The Internet Should Not Operate At The Speed Of Government.

The Principles Donald Trump Is Focused On Are Exactly The Right Principles: More Choice, More Competition, Lower Costs, Lower Premiums.

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

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

You Have To Be Willing To Have The Decision-making Follow The Data.

Decision Making

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.

What I Believe Is Important Is That We Win The Battle Of Ideas.

The Usa Freedom Act Expands That So Now We Have Cell Phones, Now We Have Internet Phones, Now We Have The Phones That Terrorists Are Likely To Use And The Focus Of Law Enforcement Is On Targeting The Bad Guys.

Start Being Biblically Correct, Instead Of Politically Correct.

Politically Correct

My Focus Is Not On Any One Particular Election Or Any One Particular Candidate. My Focus Is On The Issues And Policy That Will Make A Difference Expanding Opportunity.

You Would Carpet Bomb Where Isis Is, Not A City, But The Location Of The Troops. You Use Air Power Directed - And You Have Embedded Special Forces To Direction The Air Power. But The Object Isn't To Level A City. The Object Is To Kill The Isis Terrorists.

President Obama Fuels That Perception. That Will Change When Militants Across The Globe See That When You Join Isis That You Are Giving Up Your Life, You Are Signing Your Death Warrant.

I Offer Myself As A Leader To The People Of This Country Because I Think They're Looking For Solutions, Not Lawyers Arguing Over Laws Or Entertainers Throwing Out Sound Bites That Draw Media Attention. We Need To Solve The Problem.

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

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.

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?

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

We See A Missile Here, A Bomb There - Looks Good On Cnn. This Is Nonsense. This Is Not A Strategy Of A Serious Commander In Chief.

I Had A Back-and-forth Where I Asked Donald Trump, Is It True Or False That He Said The Government Should Pay For Everyone's Health Care? He Said It's False. Listen, Within Minutes, We Put Out A Video Just Contrasting What He Said There With Video Of Him Just A Few Months Earlier Saying Exactly The Opposite.

Ronald Reagan And Ron Paul Had A Message That Was Clear, It Was Principled, And It Inspired. It Was A Vision For A Future.

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

It's Not Beneficial When You Have A Presidential Candidate Like Donald Trump, Telling His Supporters "punch That Guy In The Face." I Think Everyone Candidate Ought To Aspire Toward Civility, Towards Decency, Towards Bringing Us Together. I Don't Think We Should Be Using Angry And Hateful Rhetoric.

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

The American Free Market System Is The Greatest Engine For Prosperity And Opportunity That The World Has Ever Seen. Freedom Works.

Over The Last Years We've Seen The Consequences Of The Obama-clinton Foreign Policy. Leading From Behind Is A Disaster. We Have Abandoned And Alienated Our Friends And Allies, And Our Enemies Are Stronger. Radical Islam Is On The Rise, Iran's On The Verge Of Acquiring A Nuclear Weapon, China Is Waging Cyber Warfare Against America.

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.

And That Was Always Our Plan. Do Well In The First Three States, And Then Compete And Have A Very Strong Night On Super Tuesday. I Think We're Ideally Positioned To Do Exactly That.

For Most Of His Life, Donald Trump Has Described Himself As Very Pro- Choice And As A Supporter Of Partial Birth Abortion. Right Now Today As A Candidate, He Supports Federal Tax Payer Funding For Planned Parenthood. I Disagree With Him On That.

We Should Protect Life But I'm Not Interested In Anything That Restricts Birth Control. And I'm Not Interested In Anything That Restricts In Vitro Fertilization Because I Think Parents Who Are Struggling To Create Life, To Have A Child, That Is A Wonderful Thing.

Using Overwhelming Air Power To Utterly And Completely Destroy Isis. To Put Things In Perspective, In The First Persian Gulf War, We Launched Roughly 1,100 Air Attacks A Day. We Carpet Bombed Them For 36 Days, Saturation Bombing, After Which Our Troops Went In And In A Day And A Half Mopped Up What Was Left Of The Iraqi Army.

We'll Be Getting New Health Insurance And We'll Presumably Do It Through My Job With The Senate, And So We'll Be On The Federal Exchange With Millions Of Others On The Federal Exchange.

We Are The Change We're Waiting For.

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.

When You're The Son Of An Immigrant Who Came Here Seeking Freedom, It Makes You Appreciate.

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.

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.

Theirs Is The Party That ... Responds To The Death Of Americans At Benghazi By Asking, What Difference Does It Make?

You Know What The [barack] Obama Administration Keeps Getting Wrong Is Whenever Anything Bad Happens They Focus On Law-abiding Citizens Instead Of Focusing On The Bad Guys.

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.

President [barack] Obama And Hillary Clinton Are Proposing Bringing Tens Of Thousands Of Syrian Refugees To This Country When The Head Of The Fbi Has Told Congress They Cannot Vet Those Refugees.

We`re Saying The Washington Establishment Run Behind Donald Trump.

Socialism Has Been An Abject Failure Across The Face Of The Globe, Millions Have Suffered Under Socialism, And Yet We're Not Doing An Effective Job Communicating That.

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

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

Hiding In The Shadows

The Left Keeps Talking About Impeachment. I Mean, They Were Talking About Impeachment Before Donald Trump's Inauguration In 2017. And, You Know, I Think Impeaching Obama In January Probably Would Have Been A Mistake.

It Is Clear That Americans Have A Right To Birth Control.

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

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

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.

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.

Carli Fiorina Thinks The Answer For Social Security And Medicare Is...zero-based Budgeting! Christ. People Of A Certain Age Are All Banging Their Heads On The Table Right Now.

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.

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."

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

Here At Home, We Need To Do Two Fundamental Things. Number One, We Need To Recognize That Technology Has Moved On. The Patriot Act Was Signed In 2001, Roughly. The Iphone Was Invented In 2007. The Ipad Was Invented In 2011. Snapchat And Twitter, All The Rest Of It, Have Been Around Just For Several Years. Technology Has Moved On, And The Terrorists Have Moved On With It.

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.'

I Am Where A Great Many Voters Are, Which Is That I Am Listening And Watching And Coming To A Decision.

I Introduced Legislation In The Senate That I Believe Is More Narrowly Focused At The Actual Threat, Which Is Radical Islamic Terrorism, And What My Legislation Would Do Is Suspend All Refugees For Three Years From Countries Where Isis Or Al Qaida Control Substantial Territory.

I Know Very Much What I Believe.

Donald [trump] Is A Charming Person. He Can Be Fun. He Can Make You Laugh. But He Can Turn On You. And Get Nasty And Personal And Vicious.

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.

I Have Been Around Conservatives My Entire Life. I Have Never Met A Single Human Being, In Any Place, Who Wanted To Ban Contraceptives.

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.

He Had 'deep Concerns' With The Pathway To Citizenship For The Nation's 11 Million Illegal Immigrants Under Consideration By The Group, Calling It 'profoundly Unfair' To Legal Immigrants.

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."

I Oppose Amnesty, I Oppose Citizenship, I Oppose Legalization For Illegal Aliens. I Always Have And I Always Will.

But We Don't Have A Right To Force Anyone To Abandon Their Faith. It Is One Of The Foundational Commitments Of Who We Are As Americans To Respect Diversity.

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.

I Believe Over The Long Term He's Going To Have The Money, And He's Got The Message, That This Is Going To Be One Of The Finalists For The Presidential Campaign.

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.

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.

For Anyone Who Doesn't Believe That Donald Trump Is The Best Candidate To Go Head To Head With Hillary Clinton In November, And That's About 70 Percent Of Republicans Nationwide Who Don't Think Donald Trump Is The Right Guy, Our [president's] Campaign Is The Only Campaign That Has Beaten Donald Trump And That Can Beat Donald Trump.

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.

We Are Seeing Republicans Uniting Behind This [presidential] Campaign [2016].

I Hope That We Have A Culture That Values Every Human Life From The Moment Of Conception To The Moment Of Natural Death.

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.

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

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.

Donald [trump] Has Had A Long Career Of Using Great Wealth And Power Trying To Bully Others.

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've Spent The Past Month In Washington D.c. And It Is Terrific To Be Back In America.

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.

We Need To Be Focused On Defeating Radical Islamic Terrorists.

I Will Happily Support Anything That Protects Life.

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

When People Are Motivated By Principles Larger Than Themselves, You Don't Have To Beat Them Over The Head To Get Them To Act. You Simply Empower Them, You Inform Them, You Give Them Tools, And They Take It Upon Themselves To Act.

President Reagan Stood For Conservative Principles In A Way That Brought People Together.

If We Have A Biometric Exit-entry System, We Know On The Day After Six Months Has Exceeded His Visa.and With That Exit- Entry System, We Can Then Send Ice, The Law Enforcement Agents That Exist, To Go And Get John And Say, Ok, You're Here Illegally Now.

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

We Have To Stop Acquiescing Even To The Wording That The Liberals Use.

Popularity Isn't The End-all, Be-all. What Matters Far More Is That You Stick To Your Principles, That You Stand Up And You Live A Life Of Integrity.

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."

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

We`re Seeing Something Fairly Remarkable Happen On The Political Train. We`re Seeing The Washington Establishment Abandoning Marco Rubio. I Think They`ve Made The Determination That Marco Can`t Win. And They`re Rushing To Support Donald Trump.

Preventing People From Illegally Immigrating To The United States Should Be The Primary Purpose Of Customs And Border Protection.

The Court Follows Elite Opinion, Not Public Opinion. And Democratic Leaders In Congress And Republican Leaders In Congress Follow Elite Opinion As Well. It's What I've Called "the Washington Cartel." It's Career Politicians In Both Parties. It Is Lobbyists And Giant Corporations.

It's Not A Lack Of Competence That Is Preventing The [barack] Obama Administration From Stopping These Attacks. It Is Political Correctness. We Didn't Monitor The Facebook Posting Of The Female San Bernardino Terrorist. She Made A Public Call To Jihad, And They Didn't Target It.

A Path To Citizenship For Those Who Are Here Illegally In My View Is Unfair To Those Waiting Sometimes A Decades In Line To Come Here.
