The breakdown of the American family has reached extremely dangerous proportions.

The entire history of the human race teaches us that the family unit is the best way for men and women to live their lives, the best way to raise children, and the only solid foundation upon which to build a strong nation.

I want to tear down the wall that's been built around Washington.

I believe in stripping the secrecy away from the processes of government.

Every decision that I make as a candidate, every decision that I make as a future President, is going to be based on strengthening the family.

I predict to you, that as soon as the Republican Convention is over, there is going to be an almost unprecedented, vicious, personal attack on me.

We've got to retain our unity.

There can be no more urgent priority for the next administration than to see that every decision our government makes is designed to honor and support and strengthen the American family.

The American family is in trouble.

I have pledged to enact tax reform if I become President, and one basic goal of any tax reform must be to help and strengthen our families.

I would open up the deliberations of government as much as possible.

Trust of people in government is the No. 1 issue.

I would have a tough management attitude with the government itself.

I would try to shift the nation away from oil to increased use of coal.

I would like to give them job training and literacy instruction and get them job offers.

I think the rate of increase would be carefully controlled, well-considered, and subject to a long-range plan.

First, there would be a drastic simplification of the tax code.

We all pray for the day when people in need of residential care will be able to reenter the productive mainstream.
