Age is just a number. It's how you use it that counts.
And that's really what's happening in this country is a violation of the First Commandment. We have become a
country entrenched in idolatry, and that idolatry is the dependency upon our government. We're supposed to depend
upon God for our protection and our provision and for our daily bread, not for our government.
And truly, when you look at the Constitution and our founding fathers and their writings, the things that made this country
great, you might draw those conclusions: That they were conservative. They were fiscally conservative and socially conservative.
And we know that once we have a majority that are dependent upon the government,
we will lose our freedom; it says we go into bondage. That's the next stage.
Beauty is not in the face; it's in the mind of the beholder.
Becoming a great athlete is not about being the best at what you do. It's about being the best you can be.

regulation. What Harry Reid has been doing is putting forward those policies that actually put more regulation on business.

I feel that the Second Amendment is the right to keep and bear arms for our citizenry. This not for someone who's in the military. This is not
for law enforcement. This is for us. And, in fact, when you read that Constitution and the Founding Fathers, they intended this to stop tyranny.
I hope that's not where we're going, but you know, if this Congress keeps going the way it is, people are really
looking toward those Second Amendment remedies. They're saying: My goodness, what can we do to turn this country around?
Radio interview in January, 2010.
I knew that if we were going to actually defeat Harry Reid, we had to have a candidate who would offer a sharp policy contrast. Someone who
would not just pay lip service to limited government principles, but had a solid record of voting that way time and again. I'm that candidate.
I still have a great deal of faith in our political system and a great deal of faith in the American people and voter.
I support voluntary personal retirement accounts for Social Security. It should be people's free choice.
I think that, you know, when we start talking about the Tea Party, people want to
marginalize that into some kind of organization or party, but it really isn't.
I think that's what activates the Tea Party Movement. What they see is the government interfering with their lives and with the
inheritance of their children. Are we going to pass down liberty or deficits? And that's really what this movement is about.

I'm pro responsible choice. You know, there is choice to abstain, choice to do contraception. There are all kinds of good choices.
I've never been a Sunday-only kind of Christian.
If we can take Harry Reid out, we can take our country back. I'm not here to preach to the choir. I'm here to organize the army.
Our Founders warned against this. They said don't... that your liberty is only as secure as the people are. Because once they, um, get the
ability to vote themselves entitlements from the largesse of the government, liberty is done; freedom is over with. We were warned. We are there.
People have always said - those words, too conservative,
is fairly relative. I'm sure that they probably said that
about Thomas Jefferson
and George Washington
and Benjamin Franklin.
President Obama and Harry
Reid and Nancy Pelosi represent
what mainstream America is rejecting about Washington, D.C. And that is this out of touch with the people.
The nation is arming. What are they arming for if it isn't that they are so distrustful of their
government? They're afraid they'll have to fight for their liberty in more Second Amendment kinds of ways.
The premise of my whole campaign has been not that people need to believe what I say to them, but they need to look at what I have done. And what
I have done in the state of Nevada, I have voted over a 100 times against tax and fee increases, poor public policy, and unconstitutional bills.
The Republicans have lost their standards; they've lost their principles... Really, that's why the machine in the

out and get a job, because the job doesn't pay as much as the unemployment benefit does.
We need to diversify our economy, and the energy industry would be a great place to begin that diversification.
We need to prioritize those expenditures of the federal government in A, B and C priorities... And I believe that on the C priority
list are things like the Departments of Education and Energy, and those are the places where we should begin those defunding.
What we need is to make our senior citizens feel secure once more with their own Social Security and Medicare. But
going forward, we need to personalize that program in a way that the government can't go in and raid it any more.
You can make more money on unemployment than you can going down and getting one of those jobs that is an honest
job, but it doesn't pay as much. And so, that's what's happened to us is that we have put in so much entitlement into
our government, that we really have spoiled our citizenry and said you don't want the jobs that are available.
You know, I am mainstream America, and it really doesn't matter what party you're in. When you call your
children and you say How are you?
- and what you are really asking is, Do you still have your job? And
are you able to make the mortgage payment?
, That resonates across the state, not across party lines.
You know, this is a war of ideology, a war of thoughts and of faith. And we need people to really stand for faith and trust, not hope and change.
