People in Oklahoma don't wake up every morning wondering what the government is going to do for them.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
We must give Oklahoma families the opportunity to thrive and prosper. We must give all Oklahomans the tools necessary to pursue the American dream. And then, we must get out of the way.
People have said to me 'I hope you won't let happen in Washington what is happening in Kansas.'
The truth of the matter is that I live on an isolated cattle ranch in the middle of Oklahoma and that's not going to change.
We need a Federal government that does what the government needs to do and stops doing what the government ought not to be doing.
Oklahoma has a respect for our neighbors. That's the Oklahoma standard.
It's the little things citizens do. That's what will make the difference. My little thing is planting trees.
What unites Oklahomans today is what has always united us: Our unshakable faith. Our love of family and compassion for others. The unlimited promise of a hopeful future.
We keep waiting for the American people to wake up, and they keep hitting the snooze bar. But something, folks, someday, will wake them up. Of that I'm confident.
I find myself hoping I can get on a TV show, and then people from Oklahoma will come to my restaurant. Then I'll be able to make enough money to open my own place.
This is not the time for partisan bickering. This is not the time for politics as usual. Some of us are Democrats. Some of us are Republicans. Some of us are Independents. Above all, we must be Oklahomans first.
