We need to care about that. We need to care about it from freedom. We need to care about it from the economy. We need to care about it from security.

We can't have someone who sits there and mocks our men and women who are trying to protect America. There is no way that the American people are going to vote for a convicted criminal. They're not.

America can never be so arrogant to think we don't need friends.

the truth is, it is something far deeper. Ralph and I have always shared the same core belief that power belongs to the people, and government derives its authority from them alone.
