That's what the Romney plan is all about, how to get jobs created, how to get this debt and deficit under control, how to revive small businesses so we can create jobs, and how to bring growth and opportunity to society instead of this class warfare, instead of speaking to people like they're stuck in some class or station in life.

I see problems that can be fixed because I see solutions that are actually occurring.
Paul Ryan

I believe in the principles that built America, I believe in the Constitution.

People like me who are reform-minded ignore the people who say, 'Just criticize and don't do anything and let's win by default.' That's ridiculous.

When Governor Romney asked me to join the ticket, I said, 'Let's get this done' - and that is exactly, what we're going to do.

Every conversation I have almost always revolves around, you know, personnel and policy focused on producing results.

Everyone, everyone is equal. Everyone has a place. No one is written off because there is worth and goodness in every life. Straight from the declaration of independence, that is the Republican ideal. And if we won't defend it, who will?

I think it is inflationary. I think it actually is counterproductive in many ways. You end up costing jobs from people who are at the bottom rung of the economic ladder.

What did the taxpayers get out of the Obama stimulus? More debt. That money wasn't just spent and wasted – it was borrowed, spent, and wasted.

With all their attack ads, the President is just throwing away money...and he's pretty experienced at that.

Mitt Romney and I know the difference between protecting a program, and raiding it. Ladies and gentlemen, our nation needs this debate. We want this debate. We will win this debate.

I do have a concern that if we just say no Trans-Pacific Partnership, we`re done, we`re ignoring the region, and then, yes, I think we`re creating a void for China, but that is not what the president [Donald Trump] is saying.
Paul Ryan
Image
Our debt is out of control. What was a fiscal challenge is now a fiscal crisis. We cannot deny it instead we must, as Americans, confront it responsibly. And that is exactly what Republicans pledge to do.
Paul Ryan

The secret to understanding me is, I'm not trying to be anybody other than who I actually am. People want candid, refreshing leadership. And I've always tried to go with solutions. You know, I've always tried to say, here's how we get our economy growing, here's why we get our debt under control. That's what Mitt Romney is offering.

There is relief coming. This is good for America. This means that we can lift the oppressive weight of the regulatory state. We can restore the Constitution.

President Trump is right to make sure we are doing everything possible to know exactly who is entering America.

When we`re done simplifying the tax code, getting the lobbyist carve outs our of the tax code, lowering our rates and letting people have a simple system, most Americans will be able to fill out their taxes on a postcard.

We think that`s necessary just as a foundation for economic growth. It`s not the jobs in and of themselves, which you do make by building bridges and things like this, but it`s the economic growth that comes from having a modern infrastructure that is in dire need of repair.

The reason I got involved in public service, by and large, if I had to credit one thinker, one person, it would be Ayn Rand. The fight we are in here, make no mistake about it, is a fight of individualism versus collectivism.
