It's easier to sell cotton candy than it is to sell broccoli to somebody, but the broccoli is better for you, and the same thing with a limited government.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
By the Obama administration's reasoning, it would be constitutionally permissible to make Americans purchase nearly any product (broccoli, gym membership) that improved their health and thereby contributed to lower health-care costs.
If government were a product, selling it would be illegal.
You certainly don't want to market the president as if he or she were a box of breakfast cereal.
I have to have the cotton candy shipped in.
Everywhere I travel around my home state of Wyoming - but also around the country - I continue to hear, 'How can Washington make us buy something we don't want to buy, a product? They can't tell us to buy breakfast cereal or something else - how can they do that?'
I produce for a low price and I sell it on my own to 80 countries.
Putting even one thing in your shopping basket that's locally produced or organic makes all the difference. It's a vote for the future, for animal welfare, for the environment, for your children's children.
You can't run a business just by selling one thing.
I buy my produce at the local farmer's market, which is actually cheaper than shopping at the grocery store.
I do not like broccoli. And I haven't liked it since I was a little kid and my mother made me eat it. And I'm President of the United States and I'm not going to eat any more broccoli.
