The road is still very long. We want to concentrate for now on manufacturing in the U.S. If I don't succeed, my son will continue with it. If he doesn't make it, my grandson will.

Do we want in this nation to lose the backbone of manufacturing in this country? Do we want to be a nation that doesn't want to manufacture anything?
I do not look upon these United States as a finished product. We are still in the making.
It's more important than ever for America to rededicate itself to manufacturing at home. When we make more products in America, more American families will make it.
We're actually making stuff in America now. We're exporting stuff. We're inventing things.
Over time, the product we produce has been consistently successful here in America and around the world. Apparently, we are doing something right.
