Quote

Ideology has shaped the very sofa on which I sit.

My political beliefs are my moral, quasi-religious framework.

My responsibility is to ask, 'How can I serve my ideology and my voters?'

My music is not really about one ideology. It's not about one truth.

Ideology has consequences.

The premise of my book is that everyone is a bit ideological to some extent. Everyone comes from a ideological perspective.

Myself, I'm a post-ideological conservative.

I come by my conservatism authentically, not by convenience. And I offer the American people a new direction.
