"There's nothing better than being in the middle of a bright spot, a place that just shines with optimism."

"the taxpayers of the United States, to know that progress is being made with their money and that the people of Mississippi appreciate the fact that the country came to help when they needed help."

"This non-partisan program offers exceptional young men and women first-hand experience working at the highest levels of the Federal government."

"I'm very proud of the leadership your Governor has shown."
