Rick Santorum: “Let these little guys get a little piece of the pie here. If you are really for the small- and medium-size peanut farmer…”

On the recordJuly 24, 1996
Let these little guys get a little piece of the pie here. If you are really for the small- and medium-size peanut farmer in Alabama or Georgia, then what you want to do is you want these folks to divest from these big quotas and start spreading it around a little bit for the little guys to have a bite of the Federal largess. If we are going to have a Federal largess, at least let more people benefit from it, let the little guy benefit. That is what this amendment does, this is a vote for the little guy. It actually will expand your base of support for the program and more will benefit from it.

If you listen, just listen to what Josh Hawley is saying. He basically is saying the same thing, in my opinion that Barbara Boxer said, which is I can't certify this election, knowing of the irregularities that I believe happened in Ohio.
