Thank you, Mr. President, for your powerful support.

Ladies and gentlemen, look at the world around you.

>> I do not. 
>> One party wants to use fear to drive an irrational shift to more expensive, less reliable energy that will that will hurt our economy. 
I DO NOT.

I do not. 
And one party thinks taxes should be higher, wealth is wrong, health insurance should come only from government, and that Kentucky coal should be eliminated, taking with it thousands of good, highpaying jobs.
