No matter how small and unimportant what we are doing may seem, if we do it well, it may soon become the step that will lead us to better things.

We need to think on a broader plane, we need to do more than we're doing.

It's fantastic that the world is becoming more open to different ways of working, but we still have a long way to go in terms of changing perceptions.

What matters is moving forward and focusing on practical results for the American people.

The difference between what we do and what we are capable of doing would suffice to solve most of the world's problems.

I always thought that if I made it big or got successful at what I had started out to do, that I wanted to come back to my part of the country and do something great, something that would bring a lot of jobs into this area.

But there is a big difference in working for the West and working for a totalitarian state.

There are no doubts that, the situation in the country today, indicates that there is much more work to do in the process of reforming the political economy and improving the quality of life of our people and communities.

Outside of Washington, D.C., most Americans aren't concerned with doing things 'big.' They're looking for less government spending, lower taxes, and good jobs.

And so I think that the idea of America working with other countries to solve problems is good for us, and it is part of digging us out of the 'my way or the highway' approach that was evident in the previous eight years.
