One of the things I would immediately do [as Commander in Chief ], in addition to defeating them here at home, is bring back the warrior class - Petraeus, McChrystal, Mattis, Keane, Flynn. Every single one of these generals I know. Every one was retired early because they told President [Barack] Obama things that he didn't want to hear.

Any work that's worth doing has its challenges as well as its opportunities. That's true if you're running a business, it's true if you're trying to help on a campaign.

We will never meet our own expectations of public education unless the federal government is willing to play a consistent, long-term role unless education truly becomes a matter of national policy, not just a matter of national rhetoric.
Carly Fiorina

But unlike Hillary Clinton, I know that flying is an activity, not an accomplishment.
Carly Fiorina
Image
The GAO just released a report that said 22 percent of federal programs fail to meet their objectives. The truth is we don't know how taxpayer money is spent in Washington, D.C., which is why I think we ought to put every agency budget up on the Internet for everyone to see.
Carly Fiorina

I will support a low, flat tax for businesses and individuals so that we fix the tax base and grow the economy.

A boardroom is a collection of individuals, and individuals have varying motives, egos, agendas and qualifications. Sometimes the dynamics can go off track.
Carly Fiorina
Image
We [the Republicans] help the middle class when we unburden them from the very policies that Hillary Clinton would double down on. She champions Big Government, which we know enables crony capitalism and exacerbates inequality. If you are wealthy, powerful and well-connected, you can handle Big Government.

When you lead change, sometimes you get arrows in your back. I mean, that's just the way the real world is.
Carly Fiorina
Image
People who describe culture and values and how people behave - I've heard people refer to it as 'the soft stuff'-they often underestimate its importance. The soft stuff actually is the hard stuff.
Carly Fiorina
Image
We respect women and don't insult them by saying all they care about is reproductive rights. All issues are women's issues.

Make the choice to do something because it engages your heart as well as your mind. Make the choice because it engages all of you.
