I run for president because I believe that we can't just save the American dream; we can expand it to reach more people and change more lives than ever before.

I do not run for the presidency merely to oppose any man, but to propose new policies. I run because I am convinced that this country is on a perilous course and because I have such strong feelings about what must be done, and I feel that I'm obliged to do all I can.

I am running to fix the economy, restore the constitutional system of checks and balances and to end this game of crony capitalism by the ruling class in Washington.

I'm never running for office. I love being able to speak to members of Congress or members of the Senate and floating on either side, because it takes all of us. It's going to take both of them.

I'm running for senator because it's time for a change.

It's going to be hard for someone like me to run for president.

I am running for re-election no matter who runs.

I ran because somebody had to do it first. In this country, everybody is supposed to be able to run for president, but that has never really been true.
