My Record Is, Far As I Know,

If We Don't Believe In Americans, Who Will? I Do Believe. I've Seen It In The People Of Our Very Typical Corner Of The Nation.

If Our Nation Goes Over A Financial Niagara, We Won't Have Much Strength And, Eventually, We Won't Have Peace. We Are Currently Borrowing The Entire Defense Budget From Foreign Investors. Within A Few Years, We Will Be Spending More On Interest Payments Than On National Security. That Is Not, As Our Military Friends Say, A 'robust Strategy.'

When They Call The Slightest Spending Reductions 'painful', We Will Say 'if Government Spending Prevents Pain, Why Are We Suffering So Much Of It?' And 'if You Want To Experience Real Pain, Just Stay On The Track We Are On.'

When Business Leaders Ask Me What They Can Do For Indiana, I Always Reply: 'make Money. Go Make Money. That's The First Act Of Corporate Citizenship. If You Do That, You'll Have To Hire Someone Else, And You'll Have Enough Profit To Help One Of Those Non-profits We're So Proud Of.'

There Is Nothing Inconsistent About Having A Conservative Outlook And Being Vigorous.
