Rick Perry
Juarez is reported to be the most dangerous city in America.

Rick Perry
Just because you have a group of scientists who stood up and said here is the fact. Galileo got outvoted for a spell.
Rick Perry
Not every child learns for the same purpose, not every child thrives in the same settings and schools. Limiting a child to just one opportunity does nothing more than limit that child's future. The way forward must involve more public charter schools, which offer parents a tuition-free alternative to their neighborhood school.
Rick Perry

I am going to give the American people a huge helping of unbridled truth: that we can't continue to spend what we are spending, that we can't avoid entitlement reform because we are afraid of third rail politics.
Rick Perry
We do not have to accept our current circumstances. We will change them. We are Americans. That's what we do.
Rick Perry
We had a $10 billion budget deficit when we got here in January of 2003. We cut that budget deficit we did not raise taxes we came back in '05, and we had an $8 billion surplus. That's how fast it can happen.
Rick Perry

Rick Perry
America is looking for a consistent leader.
Rick Perry
Although Mr. Trump talks an interesting and entertaining game, rarely do I hear him lay out specifics.
Rick Perry
Our work is before us. It cannot be passed to future legislatures and must not be passed to future generations. May we boldly seize the moment with singular unity. And may we build a Texas of unlimited possibility.
Rick Perry
When a criminal breaks into your home I'll let the liberals call the lawyer. I'm going to call Smith & Wesson.
Rick Perry
I would a whole lot rather had Carly Fiorina over there doing our negotiation than John Kerry. Maybe we would've gotten a deal where we didn't give everything away. But the issue for us is to have a Congress that stands up and says not only no, but Hell no to this money going to a [Iran] regime that is going to use it for terror...
Rick Perry
To make sure that votes are never canceled out by illegal votes, we instituted a photo ID requirement. And don't you think it's fair to apply at least the same standard required to get a library card or to board an airpane?
Rick Perry
