People aren't stupid. I mean, people remember in 1990, the unemployment rate was 10 percent. Now it's 4 _ percent. We've got 1/4 million jobs that we've created.

More quotes by William Weld
I think Gary Johnson was probably expressing frustration at a series of pop quizzes. He actually was more authoritative on what to do in Syria before the Aleppo moment than any of the other candidates. And I think he called it about right. There is too many different rebel groups there. And it`s a terribly confused situation.
William Weld
Liberals often don't see the problems, and conservatives don't see the promise, of government.
William Weld
I think government has a major role to play in helping us with the pursuit of happiness.
William Weld
We need a complete ban on soft money, which is sort of an enveloping problem, and a ceiling on the amount of money that can be spent on a given race.
William Weld
We thought for the longest time we might have a chance to run the table because we're such nice guys and centrist party, etcetera, but not getting into the debates really sort of foreclosed that option.
William Weld
I see a big difference between the Republican candidate and the Democratic candidate.
William Weld
Donald Trump behaving like a wild man. I mean, I just can`t imagine that people want a human tornado sitting in the oval office.
William Weld
I think it would be a threat [Donald's Trump presidency] to the conduct of our foreign policy and our position in the world at large.
William Weld
Managing people's sex lives is something that I don't think is a good role for government.
William Weld
I think Gary Johnson would be capable of being a good chief executive and yes a commander in chief - Aleppo to the contrary, notwithstanding.
William Weld
Natural resources are so vast that no single individual or business is going to protect them they don't have an incentive to.
William Weld
It's completely idiot proof. I told them they've got it all wrong. I want a machine that is idiot friendly.
William Weld
If we have major geographic areas within our continent that have a tremendous lack of economic opportunity, we found that that is going to produce instability economic, political and social.
William Weld
Gary Johnson and I have a good platform of having been fiscally conservative and we`re socially inclusive. And that`s different from both the other parties. The voters have a right to see that choice to be fiscally conservative and socially liberal. That doesn`t describe either of the other parties.
William Weld
We're getting to the point where we're impinging on democratic institutions in this country and I think, you know, it takes a certain - not a suspension of disbelief - but willingness to go along with other people to get the ship of state going forward. I'm not sure that happens in a [Donald] Trump presidency, frankly.
William Weld
I extend that to the abortion issue, I extend that to the so-called gay rights issue, I think this is a freedom principle and consistent with the analysis in the economic area as well.
William Weld
I think in the real world that's probably correct. That would give federal matching funds. It would mean no more ballot access woes.
William Weld
[Donald Trump] would be chaos for the country, I think.
William Weld
I talk with Gary [Johnson] every other day, we're on different coasts usually but we keep in touch and - yeah, no I do not agree with that release.
William Weld
I have come to realize that Jesse Helms stands for everything in politics that is anathema to me.
