conservative position
I'm a Reagan conservative. Reagan did negotiate with the Soviets. But you have to negotiate from a position of strength.
african-american firsts vote
To understand how Republicans lost the African American vote, we must first understand how we won the African American vote.
party black-history republican
The Republican Party's history is rich and chock full of emancipation and black history.
dollars projects minutes
We do not project power from bankruptcy court. We're borrowing a million dollars a minute.
party people too-much
Some people say I chastise the Republican Party too much.
fighting rights long
The Bill of Rights existed long before President Obama was elected, and as long as I’m a U.S. Senator, I will fight to protect the basic rights and liberties that belong to all of us as American citizens.
religious strong rights
Of strong importance to me is the defense of minority rights, not just racial minorities, but ideological and religious minorities.
iran sanctions consistent
I would have never released the sanctions [for Iran] before there was consistent evidence of compliance.
party rights voting
What gets lost is that the Republican Party has always been the party of civil rights and voting rights.
heart political brain
We have a lot of politicians who have really small brains and really big hearts.
kids littles little-kid
I've had an interest in politics since I was a little kid.
religious believe years
I believe people ought to be treated fairly under the law. I see no reason why if the marriage contract conveys certain things that if you want to marry another woman that you can do that and have a contract. But the thing is is the religious connotation of marriage that has been going on for thousands of years, I still want to preserve that. And you probably could have both. You could have both traditional marriage, which I believe in. And then you could also have the neutrality of the law that allows people to have contracts with another.
taken way republican
We as Republicans have taken the easy way out a lot of times.
community president want
The president wants more tax money in Washington. I want more money left in the communities, particularly poor communities, particularly communities that have high unemployment.
