People Are Tired Of The Status Quo. You See That In Various Movements In And Out Of Our The Republicans Party, But Most Candidates Are Offering Hollow Rhetoric, Not Specific Solutions.

All The Things I Resent Most About Out-of-control Government And The Politicians Who Support It, Grow It, Or Simply Fail To Deal With It, What Angers Me Above All Else Is The Knowledge That All Of This Waste And Ruin Is Entirely Preventable.

People Who Describe Culture And Values And How People Behave - I've Heard People Refer To It As 'the Soft Stuff'-they Often Underestimate Its Importance. The Soft Stuff Actually Is The Hard Stuff.

The Most Effective Way To Beat Hillary Clinton Is To Remind Voters Of Hillary Clinton's Behavior.

Ultimately, Strong Branding Is Not Just A Promise To Our Customers,to Our Partners, To Our Shareholders And To Our Communities;it Is Also A Promise To Ourselves...

Leadership Comes In Small Acts As Well As Bold Strokes.

When Our Embassy Is Attacked In Benghazi By Terrorists And There Is No Response, You Get More Bad Behavior. When Russia Invades Ukraine And There Is No Response, You Get More Bad Behavior. When Syria Crosses The Red Line And There Is No Response, You Get More Bad Behavior. When Iran Launches Tests Of Ballistic Missiles And There Is No Response, You Get More Bad Behavior. When North Korea Attacks Sony Pictures And There Is No Response, You Get More Bad Behavior. In Other Words, Mrs. Clinton, You Cannot Lead From Behind.

As President, The First Thing I Will Do Is Secure The Border. It Will Take Money, Manpower, And Technology - But Most Of All, It Will Take Political Will.

Donald Trump You're Never Going To Be President Of The United States By Insulting Your Way To The Presidency.

Hillary Clinton Has Gotten Every Foreign Policy Challenge Wrong. Hitting The Reset Button With Vladimir Putin - Recall That She Called Bashar Al-assad A Positive Reformer And Then She Opened An Embassy And Then Later She Said, Over, And Over, And Over Again, "bashar Al-assad Must Go." Although She Wasn't Prepared To Do Anything About It.

Of Course People Think Washington Is Arrogant. It Is.

It's That Government Bureaucracies Crush Innovation. We Are Falling Further And Further Behind In Our Government.

I Have Met Vladimir Putin, And I Know His Ambition Will Not Be Detoured By A Gimmicky Red, Reset Button.

Unlike Hillary Clinton, I Am Not Afraid To Answer Questions About My Track Record Or My Accomplishments Or My Principles.

It's The Federal Government's Job To Secure The Border.

People Are Angry That Things As Common Sense As Securing The Border And Eliminating Sanctuary Cities Are Being Framed As Extreme Views. They Are Tired Of Empty Rhetoric Without Action, And They Are Hungry For A Leader From Outside The Professional Political Class.

We Need A Leader Who Won't Be Silent - As Barack Obama And Hillary Clinton Have Been - As Millions Of Christians Are Persecuted Throughout The Middle East.

Everything Bill Clinton Has Done Is Fair Game. He's A Former President.

It Is The Height Of Hypocrisy For [hillary] Clinton To Talk About Being The First Woman President When Every Single Policy She Espouses And Every Single Policy Of President [barack] Obama Has Been Demonstrably Bad For Women.

Socialism Starts When Government Creates A Problem, And Then Government Steps In To Solve The Problem.

The Goal Is To Turn Data Into Information, And Information Into Insight.

Data Collection

I Think We Ought To Ban Earmarks. I Think We Ought To Give Citizens The Opportunity To Designate Up To 10 Percent Of Their Federal Income Tax Toward Debt Reduction. If We Did That, We Would Reduce Our Debt By $95 Billion A Year.

There Is A Time And A Place For Everything. There Is A Time And A Place For Talk. And There Is A Time And A Place For Action.

I Don't Take On A Fight Just For A Fight. I Don't Tilt At Windmills.

Donald Trump Is A Serial Philanderer, By His Own Admission.

But Unlike Hillary Clinton, I Know That Flying Is An Activity, Not An Accomplishment.

Our Government Has Become Incompetent, Unresponsive, Corrupt. And That Incompetence, Ineptitude, Lack Of Accountability Is Now Dangerous.

You Know, I'm Very Proud Of The Large Number Of Hispanic Endorsements That I've Received.

We Need More Transparency And Accountability In Government So That People Know How Their Money Is Being Spent. That Means Putting Budgets Online, Putting Legislation Online.

To Build A Great Company, Which Is A Ceo's Job, Sometimes You Have To Stand Up Against Conventional Wisdom.

I Too Remember September 11th. I Remember Immediately Putting Into Place Security Procedures All Throughout Our Company That Did Business In 170 Countries Where We Thought Corporate Interests Would Be Attacked Next. To Take Our Country Back, To Keep Our Nation Safe, We Have To Begin By Beating Hillary Clinton.

Margaret Thatcher Once Said, "if You Want Something Talked About, Ask A Man; If You Want Something Done, Ask A Woman."

I've Laid Out A Plan For How We Keep People Safe Here At Home, And I've Laid Out A Plan Of How We Wage War And Win By Denying Isis Territory Overseas. We Must Deny Them Their Territory Because The Territory That They've Conquered Because Hillary Clinton And Barack Obama Declared Victory In Iraq And Against Every Generals Advice Withdrew All Of Our Troops, Leaving A Vacuum, Weaponry, Territory For Isis To Conquer, That Territory, Their Caliphate, Is That From Which They Draw Legitimacy, Potency, Credibility. We Have To Deny Them That Territory.

Well, You Know, I - Again, Even In The Context Of Bp, I Wonder About This Government's Priorities. The Federal Government's Top Priority Right Now Should Be The Cleanup. And Bp Certainly Has Done So Many Things Wrong. They Need To Be Held To Account.

Oh, I'm Sure I've Made My Share Of (mistakes). I Don't Think I've Made More Than My Fair Share Of Them, Although I Think More Has Been Made Of The Ones That I've Made.

I Have Very Eclectic Tastes.

We Need A Fearless Fighter In The White House - Not Just To Win This Election, But Also To Restore The Character Of Our Nation.

I'm Quoting Margaret Thatcher. I Quote Her Frequently.

What I Think We Need To Do To Engage The American People In A Conversation About Entitlement Reform Is To Have A Bipartisan Group Of People Who Come Together And Put Every Solution On The Table, Every Alternative On The Table. And Then We Ought To Engage In A Long Conversation With The American People So They Understand The Choices.

Hillary Clinton Has Gotten Every Foreign Policy Challenge Wrong.

Perception Is Everything And That Becomes The Reality. It's A Big Problem For Hillary Clinton.

I Have Been Tested. My Faith Has Been Tested. I Have Battled Breast Cancer. I Have Buried A Child. Through It All, The Love Of My Family And My Personal Relationship With Jesus Christ Has Seen Me Through. And On This Journey My Family And My Faith Will See Me Through As Well. I Will Not Falter, And I Will Not Shrink From This Fight.

When You Lead Change, Sometimes You Get Arrows In Your Back. I Mean, That's Just The Way The Real World Is.

Donald Trump Would Be A Better President Every Day Of The Week And Twice On Sunday Rather Than Hillary Clinton.

We Must Protect The Right Of Citizens To Practice Their Religions Freely. As President, I Will Support Federal And State-level Legislation Like The Religious Freedom Restoration Acts That Protect Citizens And Their Churches From Government Intrusion.

Hillary Clinton Failed To Mention That Her Agreement With A Precipitous Withdrawal And Declaration Of Victory In 2011 Helped Left Swaths Of Territory And Weaponry From Isis. She Failed To Mention That She Described Bashar Al-assad As A Positive Reformer And Opened An American Embassy. She Failed To Mention A Complete Failure Strategy In Libya, Which Now Is Enabling Isis To Move Into Libya.

But Ours Was Intended To Be A Citizen Government. It Is What Of, By And For The People Means. And When Our Most Important Issue In California Is The Creation Of Jobs, I Think It's Quite Helpful To Have Someone In The U.s. Senate Or In The Governor's Seat Who Actually Knows Where Jobs Come From.

We Must Continue To Show Tolerance For Those Whose Opinions And Sincerely Held Beliefs Differ From Our Own. We Must Lead By Example, Finding A Way To Respect One Another And To Celebrate A Culture That Protects Religious Freedom While Promoting Equality Under The Law.

Equality Under The Law

The Data Is Clear: If You Give A Woman An Opportunity, She Will Make A Huge Difference.

Independent Women

China Is A Rising Adversary. So One Of The Things We Have To Do If We Want China's Support Is To Push Back On China.

Well, First, If I Am Fortunate Enough To Be Elected To The U.s. Senate, It Won't Be A Party That Will Have Elected Me. It Will Be The People Of California.

Somehow A U.n. Resolution About Syria Puts Us Where We Need To Be? I Think It Is A Reflection Of Hillary Clinton And Barack Obama's Beliefs That Our Foreign Policy Gets Set By Others.

Leadership Is Not About A Title, Degree Or Level. Anybody Can Lead At Any Time.

Kim Jong-un Is A Dangerous Leader, Without A Doubt. And Both Republican And Democrat Administrations Have Been Completely Ineffective In Dealing With Him. So We Must Continue To Isolate Him. We Will Need China As Part Of That Strategy.

The Pace Of Change Is So Great, There Is Always Something Else Going On. What That Says To Me Is That You Have To Have Strategic Vision And Peripheral Vision. Strategic Vision Is The Ability To Look Ahead And Peripheral Vision Is The Ability To Look Around, And Both Are Important.

I Will Reform Our Broken Visa System. Nearly Half Of The People In This Country Illegally Came Here On Legal Visas And Simply Never Left. We Need To Fix That.

People's Ideas And Fears Can Make Them Small But They Cannot Make You Small. People's Prejudices Can Diminish Them But They Cannot Diminish You. Small-minded People Can Think They Determine Your Worth. But Only You Can Determine Your Worth.

The Truth Is, I'm Proud Of The Life I've Lived So Far, And Though I've Made My Share Of Mistakes, I Have No Regrets.

Obviously The Senate Is A Federal Office, But To Get California's Economy Moving Again We Need To Do Some Things In The Federal Arena.

We Must Have Sunni-arabs Involved In This Coalition [against Isis]. We Must Commit Leadership, Strength, Support And Resolve.

I Think The Dot-com Boom And Bust Represented The End Of The Beginning. The Industry Is More Mature Today.

The Difference Between People Who Succeed And People Who Fail, I Think In Many Cases It’s Not Fear. Everyone Experiences Fear. The Difference Is What Do You Do With Your Fear. Do You Work To Overcome It Or Do You Let It Defeat You? And I Think That Is Actually What Distinguishes Very Successful People From Others.

We Also Know That Isis Is Recruiting Who Are Not In Those Databases. So Of Course, We're Going To Miss Them. And Then We Now Learn That Dhs Says, "no, We Can't Check Their Social Media."

All That Matters Is, How Big Do You Want To Dream, And How Hard Do You Want To Work?

I Think A Strong Dollar Is The Result Of Policies, But I Don't Think The Strong Dollar Is In And Of Itself A Policy.

I Believe That Marriage Has A Spiritual Foundation Because Only A Man And A Woman Can Create Life, Which Is A Gift From God. So, While I Believe That Government Should Bestow Benefits Equally, I Also Believe That Government Must Respect Those - Like Myself - Who Believe That Marriage Has A Religious Foundation.

If A Decision-making Process Is Flawed And Dysfunctional, Decisions Will Go Awry.

Whatever The Consequences Of Staying True To Yourself, They're Much Less Than The Consequences Of Selling Your Soul.

Stay True To Yourself

When You Challenge Other People's Ideas Of Who Or How You Should Be, They May Try To Diminish And Disgrace You. It Can Happen In Small Ways In Hidden Places, Or In Big Ways On A World Stage. You Can Spend A Lifetime Resenting The Tests, Angry About The Slights And The Injustices. Or, You Can Rise Above It.

We've Mismanaged Going Into Iraq.

I Didn't Say I Would Cut Off All Communication With [vladimir] Putin. What I Said Was As President Of The United States, Now Is Not The Time To Talk With Him.

There Are Kind Of Four People Up At The Top, [donald] Trump,[marco] Rubio,[ted] Cruz,[ben] Carson, And Then There's Me And About Three Governors. I'm Perfectly Happy With That Position Right Now, Honestly, Because When I Started This Race, I Was 17 Out Of 16. The Pollsters Didn't Even Ask My Name, Because So Few People Knew Me.

Im Very Disappointed That We Missed Our (earnings Per Share) Growth Target This Quarter Due To The Confluence Of A Number Of Issues That We Now Understand And Are Urgently Addressing. I Accept Full Responsibility For The Shortfall.

When Hillary Clinton Talks About Adding More Restrictions And Complexity To Our Financial System, As She Did In Her Economic Policy Speech, It Shows How Clueless She Is About How The Economy Actually Works.

Look, I'm A Cancer Survivor, All Right? So I Have Great Personal Empathy For People Who Have Pre-existing Conditions And Can't Get Insurance.

I Will Reveal To The American People Over And Over And Over Again The Clinton Way, Say What You Have To Say To Get Elected, Lie As Long As You Can Get Away With It.

Silos Can't Interoperate Unless The Technology Does.

Leadership Is Performance. You Have To Be Conscious Of Your Behavior, Because Everyone Else Is.

Nobody Needs To Worry About My Toughness.

I Know Vladimir Putin. He Respects Strength. He Lied To Our President's [barack Obama] Face; Didn't Both To Tell Him About Warplanes And Troops Going Into Syria. We Need To Speak To Him From A Position Of Strength.

So What Will Define Greatness For Your Generation? I Believe It Is To Use The Knowledge That You Have Earned Here To Find Ways, Not Only To Connect To Computers, But To Connect To People; Not Only To Bridge Gaps In Science, But To Bridge Gaps Between Cultures; Not Only To Use Numbers And Formulas To Create, But To Use Words To Lead, And In The Process, To Close That Canyon Between Ignorance And Understanding.
