I am running to fix the economy, restore the constitutional system of checks and balances and to end this game of crony capitalism by the ruling class in Washington.

All I want to do is get back to a principle-based Congress.

If I'm elected president, let me tell you about my first day in office. The first thing I intend to do is to rescind every illegal and unconstitutional executive action taken by Barack Obama.

I'm running for senator because it's time for a change.

I do not run for the presidency merely to oppose any man, but to propose new policies. I run because I am convinced that this country is on a perilous course and because I have such strong feelings about what must be done, and I feel that I'm obliged to do all I can.

I will run an open government that speaks with honesty, seeks opinion, listens to its citizens.

I am running for re-election no matter who runs.

My leadership will end the Obama era and begin a new era of American prosperity.

I ran for Congress because I want to make sure others have the same chance at the dream that I had for generations to come.

It's important to remember that whatever the presidential candidates of either party say, they will have to interact with the United States Congress, particularly the Senate, when it comes to crafting policy... we play an important role. And I'm going to continue to play that role, whoever is president.
