people important window
The national security issues are very important for two reasons. First, because everybody knows that we want to be safe. But, secondly, people see these issues as probably the clearest window into somebody's temperament, their judgment, whether they're steady or volatile.
motivation decision important
Living our lives of faith or motivation with enthusiasm and excitment, convincing each other, dialoguing with each other about important moral issues of the day, but on fundamental issues of morality, we should let women make their own decisions.
wife important clinton
We trust Hillary Clinton, my wife and I, we trust her with the most important thing in our life.
thinking important
I think it is really really important that those of us who have deep-faith lives don't feel like we could substitute our own views for everybody else in society regardless of their views.
efforts force good issue job list top
Probably the issue at top of their list was better work-force development. (Danville officials) feel like the state's efforts are kind of fragmented, and we need to do a better job of coordinating them. And I think that's a real good point.

I am focusing on things where we can build on this management tradition that we have, advance smart priorities and do so in ways that save us money on the back end.

We spend at least $5 for remedial education right now for every dollar we put in early childhood education. All the studies on early childhood education show this is going to pay for itself.
change comfort continuity cycle democrats good governor hurts level manager national people pick political somebody
I want someone with a national reputation. I want somebody who is a good manager of people and who is a change agent. I think the one-term governor hurts transportation more than anything else because if you change out secretaries of transportation and VDOT commissioners on a four-year cycle you just don't get the continuity you need on the transportation side. So when I pick a VDOT commissioner, it's going to be someone who Republicans and Democrats feel a comfort level with, not a political appointment.
business demonize
You see Democrats who will demonize business. I don't do that. You see Republicans who demonize labor. I don't do that.
