Because I'm a proven leader. I disrupted the old order in Tallahassee. I relied on people like Marco Rubio and many others to follow my leadership and we move the needle, led the nation in job growth, reduced the role of government, reformed the things that were broken, took on some very powerful interests and we won. And I could be that disruptor in Washington D.C. Look, we've had a president who came in and said the same kind of thing, new and improved, hope and change and he didn't have the leadership skills to fix things. In fact, he's been the greatest, most divisive president in modern history. What we need is someone with proven leadership to fix things and I believe I have those skills.
