believe longer question statements time
There is no longer time for statements like ""if only"" or ""we can't."" We must and we will succeed. The only question now is how and when. I believe the time is now.
children believe should-have
In a time of tight budgets, difficult choices have to be made. We must make sure our very limited resources are spent on priorities. I believe we should have no higher priority than investing in our children's classrooms and in their future.
believe differences making-a-difference
One person can make a difference. In fact, its not only possible for one person to make a difference, its essential that one person makes a difference. And believe it or not, that person is you.
country believe belief
If we are going to save this country, if we are going to reestablish that belief in God, it's up to us. If we don't do it, who will?
country jesus rain
God looked down on this country because this country was founded on the rock and that rock was our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. And when the storms came and the rains came, the rock, it did not move. But over the last 15 or 20 years, something began to erode.
pride differences race
For too long, we have focused on our differences - in our politics and backgrounds, in our race and beliefs - rather than cherishing the unity and pride that binds us together.
results
When money follows results - we will get more results for our money
school economy determine
The success of our economy shouldn't determine the success of our schools
war men two
No two wars are ever the same. Some are just, some are unjust, but the basic commonality shared between them all is that young men and women heeded a call to service, overcame their fear, and fought for their side
children school skills
No skill shapes a child's future success in school or in life more than the ability to read.
fighting simple government
The fight for reform comes down to a simple goal: giving our citizens the confidence that government serves the people first and the people only.
military men afterlife
The men and women who serve in our military have won for us every hour we live in freedom, sometimes at the expense of the very hours of the lifetimes they had hoped to live.
change running often-is
Change makes us confront the great unknown. It introduces different things into our lives. Different places. Different ideas. Different people. It's all hard to accept at times, and change can often be a little scary. But if there's one fact that I've learned from raising a family, from running several businesses, from serving in Congress and now as Governor, it's that nothing has ever grown without changing.
jobs thinking special
I ask you: turn a deaf ear to the special interests. Let politics stand down for a while. don't waste anytime thinking about future elections until we've done our jobs here.
