The judgment that every voter is making of every one of us [running for presidency] who has the experience, who has the vision, who has the judgment to be commander in chief. That is the most important decision for the voters to make. That's a standard I'm held to. And it's a standard everyone else is held to.

You want to know the first gun control law in America? First Congress passed a law mandating that all able-bodied men must own a musket.
