I want to thank the people of Texas for asking me to represent them in Washington.

Next time I tell you someone from Texas should not be president of the United States, please pay attention.

I grew up in Texas, obviously a huge football state.

I am about the people of the United States of America and the people of Houston, Texas.

Our voting records are not necessarily the same, but, you know, we're all Texans, and at the end of the day, we try to help each other out.

You won't see me taking it easy on the Cowboys because I'm from Texas, you won't see me cheering for the Cowboys because I'm from Texas. I'll be a Redskin, through and through.

I knew more about Texas than the Texans and when they told me I would find summer here I smiled knowingly.

Texas has a lot of challenges, but if I choose to run I will talk about opening democracy to mainstream Texans and not just to a closed circle of entrenched ideologues.

Real Texans believe in looking out for each other. We believe in honoring our mothers and fathers and keeping our smallest residents - our children - healthy.

I want to be a part of the team that's 'making America great again' in whatever capacity I can serve.
