Mitt Romney

My job is not to worry about those people, I'll never convince them they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives.

I believe in a two-state solution which suggests there will be two states including a Jewish state. I respect Israel's right to remain a Jewish state.

Well, there are 47 percent of the people who will vote for President Obama no matter what. All right. There are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe the government…

I look at the Palestinians not wanting to see peace in any way for political purposes, committed to the destruction and elimination of Israel, and these thorny issues, and I say there's just no way.

I recognize that those people who are not paying income tax are going to say, gosh, this -- this provision of -- that Mitt keeps talking about lowering income taxes, that's not going to be real attractive to them.

I will not divide America. As I have seen the president do over these past several months, I will not divide the United States of America but instead bring us together.

I will not divide America, as I have seen the president do over these past several months.

I wind up talking about how the thing which I find most disappointing in this president is his attack of one America against another America, the division of America, basically going after those who have been successful.

If he were elected president, he would get the troops out of Afghanistan, make that transition to Afghan security forces, by the end of 2014.

He called for the people who leaked this video to put out the entire videotape.

I will never convince them that they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives.

I'm convinced that the president's approach has not done that and will not do that.

He said that what he had to say about some voters out there not being, you know, people who are dependent on government assistance, people who might think of themselves as victims. He said that that was not elegantly stated and that he…

I believe the point I made is the president starts off with a large number of the voters -- 47, 48, 49 percent, something like that. These are people who are in his camp, and they'll vote for him, almost no matter what.

The president believes in what I've described as a government-centered society, where government plays a larger and larger role, provides for more and more of the needs of individuals.

This is ultimately a question about direction for the country. Do you believe in a government-centered society that provides more and more benefits? Or do you believe instead in a free-enterprise society where people are able to pursue…

This is a campaign, fundamentally, about how to help the middle class in America, and how to bring people out of poverty into the middle class.

I mean that's what they sell every four years. And so my job is not to worry about those people. I'll never convince them that they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives. What I have to do is convince the 5 to 10…

I can't ever imagine if the prime minister of Israel ever asked to be with me, I can't imagine saying no. They are our friends. They are our closest allies in the Middle East.

What I said was exactly the same conclusion the White House reached, which was that the statement was inappropriate. That's why they backed away from it, as well.

I think it was not directly applicable and appropriate for the setting. I think it should have been taken down. And apparently, the White House felt the same way.

I think it's a -- a terrible course to -- for America to stand in apology for our values. That instead when our grounds are being attacked and being breached that the first response of the United States must be outrage at the breach of the…
