If I think of all the family members, I was probably the only one who was excited with the possibility of my dad's entering public office.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm so excited to be carrying on in Dad's footsteps and making sure that everything he worked so hard for continues for the generations to come.
My dad was phenomenal. Born in Mexico, lived poor, didn't graduate from college, and becomes head of a car company and then governor of a state. I can't imagine I would have ever thought about running for office had I not seen my dad do it.
No one in my family had ever been in politics. My dad thought it was something that got in the way.
I love my dad. It's fair to say that I probably would not have thought of politics had I not seen my mom and dad involved in politics.
I liked the fact that my father had a lot of expectations from my brother. I probably wanted to be that person who he could be proud of.
My father was a public figure all my life, and so the presidency was an extension of that. I guess you get used to it, though you can stand back occasionally and think, 'Boy, this is really weird!'
My dad took me to John Kennedy's inauguration when I was 8. We come every time, Republican and Democrat, because of this great country.
I think my mom and dad knew from the very beginning that I was destined to go into public service.
My father was the center of the family, and everyone tried to please him.
My family and I couldn't be more happy for the opportunity to run with and serve with the next president of the United States.
