Disney's something to be a little alarmed about. It's not just a little theme park anymore. It's now an ethic and outlook and strategy that goes way beyond central Florida.

We have a unique opportunity as Disney because it really is the only true global entertainment brand.

Florida is a crazy place, and I have played some of the wildest shows of my life here.

I am absolutely convinced that Florida will become the most exciting place in the world to live and work.

Florida is a place of unparalleled diversity of backgrounds, experiences and vision. It makes our culture unique, but it can also make it difficult to define a common identity and create a sense of community that reaches beyond our neighborhoods to all corners of our state.

It doesn't matter how much I think I know about Florida, it still flips me on the head every time. It's just an absurd, eclectic place, and the stories that can come out of that place just never stop.

Florida isn't so much a place where one goes to reinvent oneself, as it is a place where one goes if one no longer wished to be found.

We really believe that Walt Disney is a very able company with great depth and a great set of franchises.

People go to Disney because they know its brand attributes. We believe we have an opportunity to go with our content directly to consumers.

I represent central Florida, which depends on tourists for its economic survival. We need people to be able to get to the State and enjoy it.
