In my political career, I'd like to see a constitutional balanced budget amendment.

We've got to make sure our younger workers understand that as life expectancy increases, the retirement date for benefits increases also.

I think that, you know, this is a different year than most years. We've got to tell the American people that we have to live with less. We have a $13.5 trillion debt. And the only way to do that is an honest campaign with honest people.

When we leave money in the hands of taxpayers, they buy things, they pay taxes, they grow government.

Politics are wack - it's mostly about the characters instead of the issues, like how religion is about religion instead of spirituality.

There is danger from all men. The only maxim of a free government ought to be to trust no man living with power to endanger the public liberty.

I want to assure you that working in transition period is an ungrateful job for any honest government.

Let's not allow the voice of the people to be overwhelmed by the siren song of those who opposed regulation, who demanded that government should stand aside and let finance and business run the show.
