And unlike Hillary Clinton I know what [a] difference it makes that our American Ambassador and three other brave Americans were killed in a deliberate terrorist attack on the anniversary of 911 in Libya. And apparently, unlike Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, I know that the response of our nation must be more forceful than the arrest of a single individual a year later.”

"All of our nation's wounds are self inflicted."

“Our government must be fundamentally reformed.  The system has to be changed.  Politics can no longer tinker on the edges…The bureaucratic monster that our government has become is not simply inefficient or ineffective or corrupt; the truth now is that our government size, its complexity, its cost, and its power over our lives now work against the interest of the people. The potential of America is being crushed by the weight of the government of America.”
