You Can't Carpet Bomb Isis If You Don't Have Planes And Bombs To Attack Them With. And If We Continue Those Cuts That We're Doing , Not To Mention Additional Cuts, We Are Going To Be Left With The Oldest And The Smallest Air Force This Country Has Ever Had, And That Leaves Us Less Safe.

Conservatives Believe In Traditional Values. Not Because We Want To Impose Our Views On Anyone, But Because To Abandon Those Values Would Be To Ignore Our History. Americans Are Not The Most Generous People On Earth Because Our Laws Make Us Generous. People Do Not Contribute To Charity In This Country In Record Amounts Because We Have A Tax Break From It. We Do So Because This Nation Has Been Shaped By Judeo-christian Principles That Teach Us That We Have An Obligation To Care For One Another.

I Think, In The Long Term It's In The Goal Of Everyone To See A Unified Korea That Actually Provides For The People Of North Korea The Kind Of Life That They Need.

But While I'm Realistic About Our Challenges, I'm Optimistic About Our Future. There Are A Few Things, And If We Do Them, We're Going To Have The Greatest Era In Our History. And I Have Detailed What Those Things Are Specifically.

Tourist Trips To Cuba Are Being Abused. They Are Tourist Trips That Are Providing Hard Currency For A Dictatorial, Tyrannical Regime To Get Hard Currency That It Uses To Oppress Its People. And That's Why These Trips Need To Be Carefully Scrutinized.

My Dad Used To Tell Us: 'en Este Pais, Ustedes Van A Poder Lograr Todas Las Cosas Que Nosotros No Pudimos' 'in This Country, You Will Be Able To Accomplish All The Things We Never Could.'

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. We Have Abandoned It In Both Political Parties.

Cubans Who Arrive And Can Prove That They Are Refugees Who Are Truly Fleeing Political Persecution Will Continue To Qualify As Refugees. The Only Thing That I've Asked For Is To Do Away With Automatic Benefits Granted To Someone, Basically, Cubans Who Come From Cuba, If It Cannot Be Verified That They Are Refugees Fleeing Political Persecution, So They Will Be Treated The Same Way As Any Other Immigrant Who Arrives In The United States, Which Is That Legal Immigrants In The United States Don't Have The Right To Any Federal Benefits For Five Years.

I Never Wanted It To Get To This Point. I Had Hoped That, By Its Own Course, By The Way The Media Covers Politics, People Would Open Their Eyes And See Who Donald Trump Really Is. But That, Unfortunately, Has Not Happened. The Polls In The Early States Indicate That He's Been Able To Fool A Significant Number Of People Into Believing That He Is Something That He Is Not.

I Think Strong Rhetoric And Strong Action Are Two Separate Things. Anyone Can Use Tough Words. Anyone Can Go Over The Top And Say Things That Sound Strong. But Sounding Strong Is Not Enough. You Have To Know Exactly How You're Going To Do It. And If You Look At Some Of The Policies He's Talked About, They Would Not Make America Stronger.

I Do Think The Most Important Thing We Need In Leadership In Our Country, Not Just In The Presidency But In The United States Senate, Are People That Have A Clear Vision Of What The Role Of Government Should Be In Our Lives And What The Role Of America Should Be In The World.

What Is The Conservative Movement? It's Pretty Straightforward. We Believe That The Way Prosperity Is Created Is When People Have The Freedom And The Opportunity To Pursue Their Dreams.

We Have A Violence Problem In America. And No One Is Having A Debate About The Violence Problem. And I Think This Is A Missed Opportunity To Have An Honest And Open Conversation In This Country About Why These Horrifying Things Are Happening, Not Simply What They're Using To Carry This Out, But Why Are People Doing This To Begin With?

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.

Freedom Of Speech

Every Generation In America Has Faced The Same Question, Do We We Want America To Be Special? Or Do We Just Want America To Be Another Country? The Time Has Come Again.

I've Always Said That I'm Open To Changes In The Relations Between Cuba And The U.s., But That Cuba Must Make Changes Also.

Let's Be Clear About What This [presidential] Campaign Is About. It's Not About Donald Trump, He's An Entertaining Guys, He's The Greatest Show On Earth.

Foreign Aid Is Important. If It's Done Right, It Spreads America's Influence Around The World In A Positive Way.

We Have Reached A Moment In Our History Where We Think That Every Problem In America Has To Have A Federal Government Solution. Every Problem In America Does Not Have A Federal Government Solution. In Fact, Most Problems In America Do Not Have A Federal Government Solution And Many Of Them Are Created By The Federal Government To Begin With.

Our Higher Education System Is Controlled By What Amounts To A Cartel Of Existing Colleges And Universities, Which Use Their Power Over The Accreditation Process To Block Innovative, Low-cost Competitors From Entering The Market.

My Hope Is That The Pope Francis Visit To Cuba Will Remind All The Cuban Citizens That They Possess Dignity And Fundamental Rights That Come From God And That The Castro Regime Has No Claim On Changing What Is 100% God-given.

If I Were Running To Be Somebody, There Are A Lot Of Easier Sombodies To Be. After All, Running Against The Incumbent Governor Of Your Own Party In Your Home State Is Not The Next Logical Step In A Political Life.

For Most Americans, Their Primary Aspiration Is To Achieve A Better Life... To Earn A Livable Wage In A Good Job. To Have The Time To Spend With Family And Do The Things They Enjoy. To Be Able To Retire With Security. And To Give Their Own Kids A Chance To Do As Well Or Better Than Themselves.

I'll Support Donald [trump] If He's The Republican Nominee.

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.

I Think War And Armed Conflict Is Always The Last Of All The Options You Have On The Table. I Think You Try To Avoid That At All Costs. Sometimes It's Unavoidable. That's The Lesson Of World War Ii. I Think The Other Lesson Of The Last 50 Or 60 Years, However, Is That, The Stronger The U.s. Military, The Stronger Our Defense Capabilities, The Stronger The Chances For Peace Are.

For Years We Have Seen People Coming On Rafts, Etc., But Now We Are Seeing People Entering Central America, Costa Rica, Panama And Then They Have Nowhere To Go Because Those Countries Are Not - For Example, In Nicaragua, The Border Was Closed. I've Always Said That I'm Open To A Study On How Can It Be Changed.

If My House Was On Fire, I Can't Compromise About Which Part Of The House I'm Going To Save. You Save The Whole House Or It Will All Burn Down. We Either Save This Country Or We Do Not.

Donald Trump Is Pulling Off A World-class Scam Here. I Mean, He's Telling People He's All These Things That He's Never Been His Entire Life. He Says He's Fighting For The Little Guy, The Working Class. He Has Spent His Entire Business Career Sticking It To Working People.

I Always Tell People I'm Running Against Two Democrats, One That Admits It And One That Does Not.

A Massive Immigration Bill Has No Chance Of Becoming Law.

If You Elect Me President, We Will Have A President That Believes America Is The Greatest Country In The World And We Will Have A President That Acts Like It.

The Only Guy That Speaks At Any Sort Of Depth Is, In My Mind, Eminem. He's A Guy That Does Music That Talks About The Struggles Of Addiction And Before That Violence, With Growing Up In A Broken Family, Not Being A Good Enough Father. So, You Know That's What I Enjoy About It. It's Harder To Listen To Than Ever Before Because I Have A Bunch Of Kids And You Just Can't Put It On.

It Should Not Be Hard To Say That Vladimir Putin's Military Has Conducted War Crimes In Aleppo Because It Is Never Acceptable For Military To Specifically Target Civilians, Which Is What's Happened There, Through The Russian Military.

Hope And Change Has Become Divide And Conquer.

Divide And Conquer

Hope And Change

I Don't Know Anything About Starting A University, And That Was A Fake University.there Are People Who Borrowed $36,000 To Go To Trump University, And They're Suing Now - $36,000 To Go To A University. That's A Fake School. And You Know What They Got? They Got To Take A Picture With A Cardboard Cutout Of Donald Trump. That's What They Got For $36,000.

When Has A Democratic Political Activist Been Poisoned By The Gop, Or Vice Versa? We Are Not The Same As #putin.

From Tea Parties To The Election In Massachusetts, We Are Witnessing The Single Greatest Political Pushback In American History.

In Aleppo, Mr. Putin Has Directed His Military To Conduct A Devastating Campaign. He's Targeted Schools, Markets. It's Resulted In The Death Of Thousands Of Civilians. This Is Not The First Time Mr. Putin Is Involved In Campaigns Of This Kind.

I Will Support Whoever Is Nominated And Named By The Party. I, At This Time, Don't Plan To Get Involved In The Contest And Let It Go Forward. I Had My Own Contest, It Didn't Result In Victory, And I Will Let Voters Decide What Will Happen. But I Will Support The Republican Candidate.

We Believe In Traditional Values Because Without Them, Without The Belief In An All-powerful God, Then The Very Founding Of Our Country Was Meaningless. It Was Founded On The Principles That Our Rights Come From God. If There Is No God, Then Where Do Your Rights Come From Other Than What Your Leaders Decide They Are?

[cuba's Goverment] Is An Anti-american Government.

American Government

We Can't Be Playing Around With These Issues [zika Disease], Because This Can Become Very Serious Very Quickly, As We Have Seen In Brazil And Other Countries. The Funds Are Going To Be Used At The State Level, But It Is Important For The Federal Government To Cooperate In The Federal Government's Role.

At A Time When The American Family Is Threatened As Never Before, Redefining It Away From The Union Of One Man And One Woman Only Promises To Weaken It As A Child-rearing, Values-conveying Institution.

For Many Of Us Who Were Born And Raised In This Country, Including Me, It's Sometimes Easy To Forget How Special America Really Is.

America Is Not Perfect. It Took A Bloody Civil War To Free Over 4 Million African Americans Who Lived Enslaved. It Took Another Hundred Years After That Before They Achieved Full Equality Under The Law.

Equality Under The Law

We Have Seen In Recent Years A Large Increase In The Number Of People Coming In And Cases Of People Going Back, Living In Cuba, But Still Receiving American Benefits. That Cannot Be Justified.

I`m Running For President Because I Want To Change The Direction Of This Country, And It Will Require Me For The Time Being To Miss Some Votes In The U.s.

Actually, I Am Asking For This: For Something To Be Done. I Think That If It Had Been One Of The 50 States, Something Would Have Already Been Done. Unfortunately, You Know, Puerto Rico Is A Territory. Very Often They Forget About Puerto Rico.

Immigration Is Not An Issue That I Read About In The Newspaper Or Watch A Documentary On Pbs Or Cnn. It's An Issues I've Lived Around My Whole Life. My Family Are Immigrants. My Wife's Family Are Immigrants. All Of My Neighbors Are Immigrants.

You Know Those Movies Where The People In The Audience Are Screaming, 'don't Go In That Door!' Because You Know The Killer Is There? Well, It Is The Same Thing With This Debt. We Know How This Ends.

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. It May Not Be A Four-year Degree. The Problem Is He Just Wants To Pour That Additional Money Into The Broken, Existing System.

We Have Also Seen An Economic Crisis That Is Very Serious Within Venezuela, We Are Seeing Cutbacks, I Believe Even More Are Coming In Terms Of Electricity. Government Employees No Longer Work On Fridays, And That Has Not Been Enough.

Barack Obama Hasn't Kept Us Safe. The Problem Is We Had An Attack In San Bernardino. And We Were Paying Attention To The Most Important Issue We Have Faced In A Decade Since 9/11, And Then All The Talk Was About This Proposal, Which Isn't Going To Happen.

If You're Running To Be President Of The United States, You Can't Just Tell People You're Going To Make America Great Again. I Think You Need To Begin To Explain Exactly How You're Going To Do It Policy-wise. We're Not Going To Win A General Election With A Candidate That Refuses To Detail Policy.

The Democrats Never Fight About Who Is More Like Jimmy Carter.

The Only People Benefiting From The Status Quo In Immigration [in The Usa] Today Are The People Trafficking Human Beings Across The Border, And The People Who Are Hiring Illegal Labor For Cheap Purposes.

There Have Always Been People In American Politics That Wanted America To Be More Like The Rest Of The World. And In 2008, One Of Them Was Elected President Of This Country And The Result Has Been A Disaster.

The World Is A Better Place Because Saddam Hussein Does Not In Iraq.

When Donald Trump's Projects Go Under, The First People That Don't Get Paid Are The Contractors That He's - Some Of Whom Have Gone Bankrupt. They're Calling Me. I'm Getting Nonstop E-mails And Calls Now From People That Have Been Scammed By Donald Trump. And Their Stories Are Heartbreaking.

America Is The Story Of Everyday People Who Did Extraordinary Things. A Story Woven Deep Into The Fabric Of Our Society.

It's Tax Day And While Many Americans Are Filing Their Taxes With A Groan, Taxpayers In The Badger State Have Reason To Cheer. In Wisconsin, We Have Enacted More Than $2 Billion In Tax Cuts, Giving Our Citizens Much-needed Relief, Call Us Crazy Midwesterners But We Think You Know How To Spend Your Money Better Than The Government.

This Is The Most Generous Country In The World When It Comes To Immigration. There Are A Million People A Year Who Legally Immigrate To The United States, And People Feel Like We're Being Taken Advantage Of.

The American People Don't Trust The Federal Government To Enforce Our Immigration Laws, And We Will Not Be Able To Do Anything On Immigration Until We First Prove To The American People That Illegal Immigration Is Under Control. And We Can Do That. We Know What It Takes To Do That.

Humans Are Not Responsible For Climate Change In The Way Some Of People Are Trying To Make Us Believe, For The Following Reason: I Believe The Climate Is Changing Because There's Never Been A Moment Where The Climate Is Not Changing.

I Was A Member Of The Florida Legislature For Nine Years, The Speaker Of The House, Majority Leader, Majority Whip.

Majority Leader

First, The Federal Government, One Of The Fundamental Responsibilities That It Has Is To Protect The Nation's Health And Wellbeing. And This [zika Virus] Is A Threat To Public Health In The United States. It Is A Very Serious Disease.

I Don't Know Anything About Bankrupting Four Companies. Here's A Guy That Inherited $200 Million. If He Hadn't Inherited $200 Million, You Know Where Donald Trump Would Be Right Now? Selling Watches In Manhattan.

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

Once Again, America Finds Itself With Some Leaders Who Believe We Can Ignore The World Without Consequences Here At Home. Apparently They're Oblivious To The Reality That We Are Less Insulated From Global Events Than Ever Before.

Jay-z's A Guy That Wears The Che Guevara T-shirt And He Doesn't Realize Che Guevara Was A Racist. Che Guevara Was A Murderer And A Killer. So Look, He's An Entertainer, Obviously. He's Not In The Middle Of Any Public Discourse Here. But I Think It's Important To Point Out When People Take Stances Like This That Are Absurd.

Any Time You Can Degrade Or Take Away The Top Leadership Of An Organization, It's A Positive Step Forward.

...you're Never Going To Have A Legal Immigration System That Works If You Grant Amnesty.

We Are Special Because We've Been United Not By A Common Race Or Ethnicity. We're Bound Together By Common Values. That Family Is The Most Important Institution In Society. That Almighty God Is The Source Of All We Have.

I Have Almost The Same Number Of Days Left As Barack Obama Has In The White House. So We Are Going To Stay Focused On This Job. I Am Enjoying It A Lot. And We Are Going To See If We Can Achieve Some Very Good Things Before The End Of The Year.

I Think, Again, On Issues Of Energy, How Are We Going To Fully Utilize Our Energy Resources In This Country? What Is The Role Of The Federal Government In Higher Education? What Kind Of Justices Would You Appoint To The Supreme Court, Not Just Because We Have A Vacancy Now, But At Least One Or Two Potentially In The Next Four To Eight Years?

If In Fact The Rates Go Up Because The President Refuses To Budge Then He Will Have To Answer For That Next Year When Our Economy Is Not Growing. 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.

Donald Trump Is Not A Republican. Donald Trump Is Not A Conservative. Donald Trump Is Trying To Pull Off The Biggest Scam In American Political History, Basically A Con Job, Where He's Trying To Take Over The Republican Party By Telling People He's Someone Who He Is Not.

All Human Life At Every Stage Of Its Development Is Worthy Of Protection.

When I Got To The Senate, One Of The Things That Most Bothered Me Is This Lack Of Urgency About The Major Issues.

Anger Alone Is Not Going To Be Enough. You Deserve A Nominee Who Tells You Exactly, "here's What We're Going To Do," And Outlines That. So You Know What You're Getting. So There's Some Level Of Accountability Here. So My Campaign Is About This. We Are Very Realistic About Our Challenges Right Now In This Country.

Conservatives Aren't Anti-immigrant - Conservatives Are Pro-legal Immigration.

Legal Immigration

The American Dream Is Not About How Much Money You Make Or How Many Buildings Have Your Name On It.

I Think Future Generations Will Look Back At This History Of Our Country And Call Us Barbarians For Murdering Millions Of Babies Who We Never Gave A Chance To Live.

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. Then We Confronted Our Challenges And Embraced Our Opportunities. And Because We Did What Needed To Be Done In 2016, Our Children Became The Freest And Most Prosperous Americans That Ever Lived.

I Think What We Need To Do Is Understand Our Number One Obligation Is To Act In The National Interest Of The United States Of America. I Believe It Is In Our National Interest To See Democracy Take Hold On The Island Of Cuba. And So We Examine Our Foreign Policy, Including All The Changes That President Obama Made, In That Lens And Through That Lens.

You Have To Deal With The Reality That In The Political Process, People Are Going To Vote Based On What They're Hearing From Their Constituents And Others.

Big Government Doesn't Help The Middle Class, It Buries It.

No. 1, It [amnesty For Illegal Aliens] Demoralizes The People That Are Going Through The Legal Process. It's A Very Clear Signal That Why Go Through The Legal Process If You Can Accomplish The Same Thing Through The Illegal Process? And No. 2, It Demoralizes The People Enforcing The Law. So I Am Not And I Will Never Support - Never Have And Never Will Support - Any Effort To Grant Blanket Legalization Amnesty To Folks Who Have Entered Or Stayed In This Country Illegally.

[barack] Obama Has Betrayed Israel, Gutted The Military, And Apologized On Ten World Tours.

I've Got A Record In Florida. I'm Proud Of My Dad, And I'm Certainly Proud Of My Brother. In Florida, They Called Me Jeb, Because I Earned It.

This Election [in 2016] Is About Electing A President That Will Restore Our Economic Vibrancy So That The American Dream Can Expand To Reach More People And Change More Lives Than Ever Before. And Rebuild Our Military And Our Intelligence Programs So That We Can Remain The Strongest Nation On Earth.

This Is The Greatest Society In All Of Human History, The Greatest Country Ever. Many Of The Decisions Being Made In Washington Today By Both Parties Are Threatening That Greatness. And If We Stay On This Road We're On Right Now, Our Children Are Going To Be The First Americans Ever To Inherit A Diminished Country.

No Economic System Is Perfect. But The American Free Enterprise System Has Empowered Millions Of People In The Past. I Know, Because I Saw It With My Own Eyes.

Ted Cruz Supported A 500-percent Increase In The Number Of H-1 Visas, The Guest Workers That Are Allowed Into This Country, And Ted Supports Doubling The Number Of Green Cards.

But America Was Founded On The Principle That Every Person Has God-given Rights. That Power Belongs To The People. That Government Exists To Protect Our Rights And Serve Our Interests. That We Shouldn’t Be Trapped In The Circumstances Of Our Birth. That We Should Be Free To Go As Far As Our Talents And Work Can Take Us.

I Am Not Now, Nor Will I Ever Be, A Candidate For Offensive Coordinator Of Iowa.

The Most Important Thing Of All Is My Parents Were Able To Leave All Four Of Their Children Better Off Than Themselves. That Story Has A Name, It's Called The American Dream.

My Preference Is That We Beat Him [donald Trump] Outright In The Primary Process. And I Believe That's Exactly What's Going To Happen Here In The Next Few Weeks, Especially As We Move To Winner-take-all States. The Terrain Begins To Change.

The Way To Turn Our Economy Around Is Not By Making Rich People Poorer, It's By Making Poor People Richer.

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

This 2016 Election Better Be About The Future, Not The Past. It Better Be About The Issues Our Nation And The World Is Facing Today, Not Simply The Issues We Once Faced.

I Want People To Make A Lot More Than $9. $9 Is Not Enough. The Problem Is That If You Can't Do That By Mandating It In The Minimum Wage Laws. Minimum Wage Laws Never Worked In Terms Of Helping The Middle Class Attain More Prosperity.

Americans Chose A Free Enterprise System Designed To Provide A Quality Of Opportunity, Not Compel A Quality Of Results. And That Is Why This Is Only Place In The World Where You Can Open Up A Business In The Spare Bedroom Of Your Home.

To Tackle The Big And Relevant Issues Of The Day With Bold And Innovative Ideas Is Without Question The Most Rewarding Way To Serve.

I Think Republicans Need To Do A Better Job Of Reaching Out To Everyone In The United States. Politics Is Always About Getting The Support Of The Majority Of Our People.

Legal Immigration Is Good For America, If It's Controlled And Structured Via The Legal Process, Of Course. But The Problem Is The System We Have In Place Right Now Is Broken. For Example, It Is Completely Family Based Which Means That It's Based Not On What You Can Do Or What Talent You Have Or What Merit You Bring Or What Job You Could Fill, But Rather On Whether You Know Someone Who Already Lives Here.

I Have No Intention Of Being Vice President. I Have Said It Clearly.

Appeasing The Castro Brothers Will Only Cause Other Tyrants From Caracas To Tehran To Pyongyang To See That They Can Take Advantage Of President Obama's Naiveté During His Final Two Years In Office. As A Result, America Will Be Less Safe As A Result Of The President's Change In Policy.

The World Is A Better Place When America Is Willing To Lead.

I Want Immigration Reform To Pass, I Want People To Be Able To Come Out Of The Shadows.

It's Not In Our Nature. Americans Have Never Been A People That Drive Through A Nice Neighborhood And Say, 'oh, I Hate The People Who Live In These Nice Houses.'

Let Me Start By Saying That I Do Not Enjoy Nor Relish The Partisan Role Of Attack Dog. I Never Found Any Fun In That. I Don't Think It's Constructive. I Don't Intend To Become That Here In The Senate.

First, Donald Trump Took Out Like This Little Make Up Compact Like Right Here, Because He Had A Sweat Mustache.

Moammar Gadhafi And The Revolt Against Gadhafi Was Not Started By The United States. It Was Started By The Libyan People. And The Reason Why I Argued We Needed To Get Involved Is Because He Was Going To Go One Way Or The Other. And My Argument Then Was Proven True, And That Is, The Longer That Civil War Took, The More Militias Would Be Formed And The More Unstable The Country Would Be After The Fact.

We Have Seen That [zika Virus] Has Caused, And Is Causing, A Whole Series Of Problems For Pregnant Women And For Their Unborn Children, And We Are Seeing That It Is Transmitted By Mosquitos, And Mosquitos Are A Serious Matter During The Summer In Florida. So We Are Very Worried About Those Funds Not Being Available. There Is $500 Million Dollars Available From The Ebola Money That Was Not Used. I Think It Is Going To Be Used Immediately.

The Problem Is That When Government Controls The Economy, Those Who Can Influence Government Keep Winning, And Everybody Else Just Stays The Same.

The Fbi Doesn't Sit Around All Day And Read Tweets. The Fbi's Going To Do Their Job. Robert Mueller's Going To Do His Job.

If Someone Can Produce The Law That Keeps Guns Out Of The Hands Of Criminals But Protects The Right Of Law-abiding Citizens To Possess Them, And Doesn't Infringe On Those Rights, I Would Consider That. But All The Proposals I've Seen Do Not Achieve That Goal. And We Are Missing A Golden Opportunity To Have An Important Debate About Violence In The Usa. Violence In Our Society Is The Problem.

Nowadays, Cubans Who Enter From Cuba With A Visa Do Not Receive Any Aid.

I Tell People All The Time That I Was Born And Raised In Ronald Reagan's America.

We Can't Win - If We Nominate Someone - If We Nominate Someone That Half Of The Republican Party Hates, We're Going To Be Fighting Against Each Other All The Way To November [of 2016]. We Will Never Win That Way.

Now, The Political Class Tries To Make Sense Of All Of This, But They Can't, Because Never Has The Political Class Or The Mainstream Media That Covers Them Been More Out Of Touch With The American People Than They Are Today.

We Need 21st Century Programs. We Have To Change The Dynamic Because The World - We're Not In The Industrial Revolution Anymore, Where You Could Leave High School, Go Work At The Town Factory For 50 Years, And Retire With A Pension.

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.

I Believe We Must Study Which Changes Must Be Made Now That The Immigration System Has Changed, Because We Are Seeing, I Believe, That At This Time We Are Inviting People To Come To The U.s. On Very Dangerous Trips.

There's Never Going To Be A Time Where The Republican Party Rallies Around And Says You Have To Get Out Or Anyone Has To Get Out For Purposes Of Rallying Around Donald Trump.

We Are A People That Have Always Celebrated Other People's Success So Long As We Always Had The Opportunity To Meet That Success Ourselves. That Is The American Nature. That Is The American Character. That Is One Of The Things That Makes Us Different From The Rest Of The World. And I'm Afraid We Could Lose That Or Are On The Verge Of Losing That.

I Think There's A Growing Amount Of Confusion About What Conservatism Is. And It Is Time For Us To Understand That Conservatism Is Not Built On Personalities. Conservatism Is Not Simply Built On How Angry You Might Seem From Time To Time. Conservatism Is Built On A Set Of Principles And Ideas That Our Nation Desperately Needs.

We Do Need Curriculum Reform. And It Should Happen At The State And Local Level. That Is Where Educational Policy Belongs, Because If A Parent Is Unhappy With What Their Child Is Being Taught In School, They Can Go To That Local School Board Or Their State Legislature, Or Their Governor And Get It Changed.

Here's A Guy That Inherited $200 Million. If He Hadn't Inherited $200 Million, You Know Where Donald Trump Would Be Right Now?

The Children Of The Reagan Revolution Are Ready To Assume The Mantle Of Leadership.

America Is Still The Land Of Opportunity For Most, But It Is Not A Land Of Opportunity For All. If We Are To Remain An Exceptional Nation, We Must Close This Gap In Opportunity.

This Opportunity – To Make It To The Middle Class Or Beyond No Matter Where You Start Out In Life – It Isn't Bestowed On Us From Washington. It Comes From A Vibrant Free Economy Where People Can Risk Their Own Money To Open A Business.

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.

For Here In America, Those Who Once Had No Hope Will Give Their Kids The Chance At A Life They Always Wanted For Themselves. Here In America, Generations Of Unfulfilled Dreams Will Finally Come To Pass.

If You Raise The Minimum Wage, You're Going To Make People More Expensive Than A Machine.

The Reason Why I'm Here Today Is To Explain Why I Am Running And What I Will Do If You Give Me The Honor And The Privilege Of Representing You In The United States Senate. Now I'm Running For The United State Senate For A Simple Reason, And That Is...i Want To Win A Nobel Peace Prize.

I Think It's A Mistake To View North Korea As A Government. It Really Is More Like A Criminal Syndicate.

70% Of Children Born Into Poverty Will Never Make It To The Middle Class. The Uncomfortable Truth Is That There Are Now A Number Of Other Countries With As Much Or More Opportunity Than Ours. In Fact, More People In Canada Go On To Surpass The Income Of Their Parents Than In The United States.

There Is One Way, Only One Way To Solve It, And That Is Through Legislation. It Cannot Be Through An Unconstitutional Executive Order That Violates The Constitution. That Is, It Doesn't Matter Here What You Think About Immigration: Here You Cannot Violate The Nation's Constitution, Period.

I Just Think You've Created An Industry Now, Where You Create The Situation Where Very Much You've Created An Incentive For People Not Just To Look Forward To Having More Abortions But Being Able To Sell That Fetal Tissue For Purposes - These Centers - For Purposes Of Making A Profit Off Of It, As You've Seen In Some Of These Planned Parenthood Affiliates.

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. Now, The Higher-paying Jobs Of This New Century Are Fantastic. The Problem Is, You Have To Have Some Level Of Higher Education, Maybe Not A Four-year Degree, But Some Level Of Higher Education, To Get Those Jobs.

I Entered Politics Out Of A Desire To Serve, But I Have Always Really Wanted To Achieve Things In The Private Sector As Well. As A Father And A Husband, That Is My Primary Obligation, And That Will Always Continue, Whether I Am In The Senate Or Out Of The Senate.

Nothing Matters If We Aren't Safe.

Nothing Matters

Our Country Has A Lot Of Problems. When The World Looks At How Bad The United States Is And Then We Go Talk About Civil Liberties, I Do Not Think We Are A Very Good Messenger. I Don't Know That We Have A Right To Lecture. We Are Not In A Position To Be More Aggressive. We Have To Fix Our Own Mess.

I Think God Has Blessed Us. He Has Blessed The Republican Party With Some Very Good Candidates. The Democrats Can't Even Find One.

I Think Media Think It's Going To Be Good For Ratings, And, Two, Because They Know They Have A Lot Of Material To Work With. If Donald Trump Were To Ever Become The Nominee, Immediately, The Hounds Of Hell Would Descend On Him. They're Going To Tear Him Apart, Everything He's Ever Done, From Not Releasing His Taxes, To All Of His Failed Business Dealings.

We Have To Show What Life Is Really Like In Isis Territory, And We Have To Show Them Why Isis Is Not Invincible, By Going Out And Conducting These Attacks And Publicizing Them To Those Who They Recruit.

This President [barack Obama] Is Undermining Our Military. This President Is More Interested In Funding Planned Parenthood Than In Funding The Military.

If There's Somebody That I Love That's In My Life, I Don't Necessarily Have To Agree With Their Decisions Or The Decisions They've Made To Continue To Love Them And Participate In Important Events.

Important Events

It's Important To Be Qualified, But If Election 2016 Is A Resume Competition, Then Hillary Clinton's Gonna Be The Next President, Because She's Been In Office And In Government Longer Than Anybody Else.

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.
