I see myself as a person who wants to serve the constituents within my district and find a way to move those who are not in our position philosophically to our position.
I have campaigned all over the state of South Carolina. It is the friendliest state in the country. And truly here people judge you by the content of your character not the color of your skin.
I think the nation as a whole has a role in making sure that each individual, each citizen maximizes one's potential.
We have to attack those things which stand in the way of America progress. And what stands in the way of American progress right now is the federal government.
But the question we should ask ourselves is, who is the next visionary leader of America? How do we have the aspiration and inspire Americans to reach their highest level? We need a president that does so.
Ensuring fairness in the American workplace should be a cornerstone of our economic policy.
My three P's would be pray, pray first. Second, prepare, and then persist.
We need the private sector to create jobs. If the government could create jobs Communism would have worked, but it didn't.
If you look at the fact that the best chance we have for a good economy is the private sector. The government cannot create jobs. If the government could create jobs, then Communism would have worked. But didn't work. So what we have to do is allow the private sector and the entrepreneurial spirit to lead us back to a job-filled recovery.
South Carolina is a great place to be from.
