Power in politics, sovereignty in America is with we the people, and that is the path to turning this country around: empowering the people.
believe country developing enormous god natural picking pursue washington winners
I think God has blessed this country with enormous natural resources, and we should pursue all of the above. We should be developing oil, and gas, and coal, and nuclear, and wind, and solar, and ethanol, and biofuels. But, I don't believe that Washington should be picking winners and losers.
caused country forced insurance jobs lose millions obamacare people time work
What is problematic about Obamacare is that it is killing millions of jobs in this country and has killed millions of jobs. It has forced millions of people into part time work. It has caused millions of people to lose their insurance, to lose their doctors, and to face skyrocketing insurance premiums. That is unacceptable.

I tend to listen to country music more than Cuban music.
changed country music odd rock sort taste
I'll tell you sort of an odd story: My music taste changed on 9/11. And it's very strange. I actually intellectually find this very curious. But on 9/11, I didn't like how rock music responded. And country music collectively, the way they responded, it resonated with me.
country people president
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.
country waiting lawyer
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.
country years obamacare
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.
country jobs pay
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.
country want scrutiny
I want more rules, more scrutiny, and to defend the country.
country risk immigration
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.
country want ifs
If we want to defend the country, we have to defend against who's coming in.
country borders border-security
Marco [Rubio] has opposed at every point increased security - border security for those who come to our country.
country thinking media
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.
