The Court Doesn't Follow Public Opinion. The Court's Views Are Radically Out Of Step With Public Opinion.

By Statute, Congress Has Given The President The Authority To Suspend Immigration - Any Class Of Immigration If He Deems It In The National Interest.

If You See A Candidate That Washington Embraces, Run And Hide.

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

Congress Needs To Send A Strong Signal That Direct Communication With The Leader Of The Free World Is A Privilege, Particularly For A Regime That Has Been As Hostile As Iran Has Been Towards America For More Than Three Decades. President Rouhani Needs To Take These Two Simple Steps To Demonstrate Good Faith Before Any Further Discussions.

The Anger On The Left - I've Never Seen Anything Like It. I Mean, They're Right Now Opposing Everything. Democrats In The Senate Are Filibustering Absolutely Everything.

We Are The Change We're Waiting For.

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.

Let's Go Back To The Beginning Of The Obama Administration, When Hillary Clinton And Barack Obama Led Nato In Toppling The Government In Libya. They Did It Because They Wanted To Promote Democracy. A Number Of Republicans Supported Them. Well, The Result Is, Libya Is Now A Terrorist War Zone Run By Jihadists.

We Need To Be Focused On Defeating Radical Islamic Terrorists.

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

I Get That The Media Wants Us To Play Theater Critics And Critique Every Other Proposal. What I`m Focusing On Are My Own Policy Proposals.

In The History Of Humanity, There's Never Been A Country Like America.

I Think Our Nation Faces Enormous Challenges, And We Need Leaders Who Are Willing To Tell The Truth And Do The Right Thing Regardless Of The Consequences.

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.

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.

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.

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.

A Lot Of My Colleagues Actually Yell And Curse At Each Other. I Don't Do That.

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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

I'm An Optimist At Heart.

Lets Us All Have An Open Conversation About What This Might Mean If [donald] Trump Gets His Way Or How We Might Be Able To Adjust That And Make American People Safer.

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 Will Fight To Defend Liberty.

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.

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.

The Issues That I Think Matter, That I Think Resonate With The Voters Are, No. 1, Defending Our Freedoms, Defending The Constitution And The Bill Of Rights. No. 2, Lifting The Boot Of Washington Off Of The Back Of The Necks Of Small Businesses So That People Can Have Jobs Again, Wages Can Come Back Again, Fighting For The Working Class, You Are Getting Hammered By Washington. And, No. 3, Keeping This Country Safe, A Strong Commander In Chief We Can Trust To Keep Us Safe. That's What I'm Looking For.

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

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.

I Want More Rules, More Scrutiny, And To Defend The Country.

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.

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

The One Thing That Might Have Stopped San Bernardino, That Might Have Stopped 9/11 Would Have Been Stricter Controls On Those Who Came Here.

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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

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.

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

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

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.

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

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.

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

I Think Hillary Clinton's Nomination And I Think Donald Trump's Nomination, I Think The Media Played Decisive Roles In Both Of Them.

The Thing Is, Is That Every Terrorist Attack We've Had Since 9/11 Has Been Legal Immigration.

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.

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.

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.

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.

My Touchstone For Every Question Is The Constitution.

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.

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.

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.

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?

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

Decision Making

Obama Has Been The Most Lawless President We've Ever Had.

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.

At The End Of The Day, The Washington Establishment Is Going To Go Where They're Going To Go.

The End Of The Day

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.

The Democrats Right Now Are Living In An Alternative Universe.

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."

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."

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.

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.

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.

The Proper Way To Make Policy Decisions Under Our Constitution In America Is For The People To Do So Through The Democratic Process.

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.

President Obama's Justice Department Won Less Than Half Of Its Total Cases Before The Supreme Court, Which Is The Lowest Presidential Win Rate Since Harry Truman. Average Historically For The Last 50 Years Is About 70 Percent.

We Need To Use Overwhelming Air Power. We Need To Be Arming The Kurds. We Need To Be Fighting And Killing Isis Where They Are.

We Need To Focus On Radical Islamic Terrorists And We Need To Stop Them Before They Carry Out Acts Of Terror.

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.

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.

Liberty Is Never Safer Than When Politicans Are Terrified.

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

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

If We Were Living Back In 1789, Your Musket Would Be Really Useful In A Military Conflict. If You Were Called Up To Service, They Said Bring Your Musket. And Indeed, The First Congress Passed A Law. You Want To Know The First Gun Control Law In America? First Congress Passed A Law Mandating That All Able-bodied Men Must Own A Musket.

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

Do You Know The Rate Of Military Enlistment Among Hispanics Is Higher Than Any Demographic In This Country?

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.

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.

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.

The More Liked You Are In Washington, The Less Liked You Are In The Rest Of America, And Vice Versa.

The Constitution Is Brilliant For Accountability; For Posing Factions Against Each Other, To Fight Amongst Themselves In Government, Which Protects Our Liberty. But Also In Ensuring That Decision-making Is Made By Those Who The People Can Hold Accountable.

The Whole World`s On Fire.

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

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 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.

I Treat Him [donald Trump] As An Entertainer. I Laugh It Off. It's Like Going To The Circus And Seeing The Acrobats And The Dancing Bears. He's Willing To Say Things That Are Patently False.

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

If I Remember Correctly, The Most Efficient Campaign In Modern Times, In Terms Of Burn Rate, Had Been Obama's 2012 Reelect, Which I Believe The Number Was They Spent 37 Cents At Every Dollar.

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

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.

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 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.

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

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

If We Want To Defend The Country, We Have To Defend Against Who's Coming In.

We're Doing A Horrible Job, And By "we" I Mean Conservatives, Republicans, Free Marketers, Anyone Who Believes In Liberty Is Doing A Horrible Job If Half Of Young People Think Socialism Is A Good Idea.

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.

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.

I'm A Fighter. I Am Passionate About What I Believe. I've Been Passionate My Whole Life About The American Constitution.

The Heart Of A Grass-roots Campaign Is The Ownership.

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

The Priority Of Leadership Is What The Lobbyists And Giant Corporations And Special Interests In Washington Want. It's Why We're Bankrupting Our Kids And Grandkids.

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

If We Topple [bashar] Assad, The Result Will Be Isis Will Take Over Syria, And It Will Worsen U.s. National Security Interests.

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.

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

I Was Then And Am Now Very Much A Happy Warrior, Very Much Joyful. Not Engaging In Character Attacks Myself, Just Putting Out, "here Are The Facts, Here Are The Evidence."and I Noted, For Example, That Both Of Them [marco Rubio And Donald Trump] Were Relying On Fabrications.

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

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

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

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.

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.

If We Look At It More From A Philosophical Standpoint, These Foundations Of Atheism And Secular Humanism Believe That You Are Your Own God. That Leads Us To Something That Unfortunately Has Crept Into Many Churches Across America, And It Is What I Call The Social Gospel. The Social Gospel, That Could Creep Into Something That Is Called Liberation Theology, Which Is A Mixture Of Leftist, Pseudo-christianity With Marxism.

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

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

Isis Says They Want To Go Back And Reject Modernity? Well, I Think We Should Help Them. We Ought To Bomb Them Back To The Stone Age.

Marxism Requires That We Destroy God, Because Government Must Become God. And The Only Way For Government To Become God Is To Destroy The Concept Of God.

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

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 Will Happily Support Anything That Protects Life.

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

I Would Note That The Scripture Tells Us, "you Shall Know Them By Their Fruit." We See Lots Of "campaign Conservatives." But If We're Going To Win In 2016, We Need A Consistent Conservative, Someone Who Has Been A Fiscal Conservative, A Social Conservative, A National Security Conservative.

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

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.

I Think That's A Question For South Carolin And The Last Thing They Need Is People From Outside The State Coming In And Dictating How They Should Resolve That Issue [about Flag].

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.

Three Of The Last Four [elections], '06, '08, And '12, Were Disastrous For Republicans. And They Were Years In Which We Just We Stayed Quiet, We Went Along The Get-along, We Didn't Stand On Principle. The Only Year That Was A Good Year For Republicans Was 2010, When We Painted In Bold Colors, Not In Pale Pastels. We Stood For Principle. I Think Winning This Fight Right Now Is The Most Important Thing We Can Do To See Significant Victories In 2014.

It Is My Hope That All Of The Republicans Who Recognize That Nominating A Candidate Who Agrees With Hillary Clinton On A Host Of Issues, Who Has A Very Similar Record, Is Not The Path To Victory. And If We Come Together, If Conservatives Stand Together, We're Going To Have A Great Night On Tuesday.

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

Hiding In The Shadows

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

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

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

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.

The Scalia Seat Is Defense. We're Not Going To Get Any Better Than Justice Scalia. The Best We Can Do Is Preserve Constitutional Victories Like Upholding The Second Amendment, Like Protecting Religious Liberty. But We're Not Going To Get Any Better.

Today, The Global Warming Alarmists Are The Equivalent Of The Flat-earthers. It Used To Be [that] It Is Accepted Scientific Wisdom The Earth Is Flat, And This Heretic Named Galileo Was Branded A Denier.

The Judgment That Every Voter Is Making Of Every One Of Us [running For Presidency] Who Has The Experience, Who Has The Vision, Who Has The Judgment To Be Commander In Chief. That Is The Most Important Decision For The Voters To Make. That's A Standard I'm Held To. And It's A Standard Everyone Else Is Held To.

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

I'm A Big Believer That Good Policy Is Good Politics. And So, When It Comes To Making Decisions On Policy Issues, What I Endeavor To Do Is Simply Speak The Truth.

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

Reining In The Regulatory State Would Have A Massive Impact On Economic Freedom Going Forward.

Brexit Is The People Of Britain Who Are Fed Up With The European Union Dominating Their Lives, And They Want Accountability.

Remember The Lessons Of History - If We Don't Learn From History, We're Bound To Repeat It.

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

What I Believe Is That We Should Defend Life.

Donald [trump]. I Understand Rules Are Very Hard For You. They're Very Confusing.

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.

Look, I Think Hispanic Community - The Values That Resonate In Our Community Are Fundamentally Conservative. They Are Faith, Family And Patriotism.

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.

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.

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 Think Many Of The Mainstream Media Players Are Liberal Democrats. They Intend To Vote For Hillary [clinton]. They Believed Donald [trump] Was The Easiest Candidate For Hillary To Beat.

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.

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

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

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.

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.

I'm A Constitutionalist. You Know, Does Faith Matter To Me? Sure. But The Beauty Of The Constitution, The Beauty Of The First Amendment, It Protects Everyone's Faith.

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

Personal Attacks

The Tsarnaev Brothers, The Elder Brother Made A Public Call To Jihad And The [barack] Obama Administration Didn't Target It.

People Are Fed Up. They Are Fed Up With What's Happening In Washington. They Are Fed Up With Both Parties. They Are Fed Up With Politicians Who Have Lied To Them.

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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.
