As Americans, we don't see the role of government as guaranteeing outcomes, but allowing free men and women to flourish based on their own vision, their hard work and their personal responsibility.

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.

I had the great privilege in 2011 and 2012 of learning a lot about what it takes to run for the presidency of the United States. It is one of the greatest challenges that any human being could take upon themselves.

I'm looking at a tax process that will allow people to keep more of their money because we know what happens when job creators get to keep more of their money than they're - they have the confidence to go out and spend that money to create jobs that in turn create wealth.

And I have a message for the liberals and the defenders of the status quo: we're just getting started.
Rick Perry

I'm worried about that man or woman sitting around - the coffee table tonight or in their kitchen talking about how are we going to get to work. How are we going to have the dignity to take care of our family.

It's a Tenth Amendment issue. If you want Washington, if you want to implement their standards, that's your call...
