What I don't like is judges legislating from the bench. And as president of the United States, I will appoint justices who uphold the Constitution and who don't see themselves as a super legislature.

Let me tell you what the Tea Party stands for. It stands for the fact that we are taxed enough already.

Small-business people do not want to have more than 50 employees, because that's when all the regulatory burden of Obamacare kicks in.

People confuse compassion with government being compassionate with other people's money versus people being compassionate with their own money.

I would agree that President Carter didn't live up to the expectation we all had when he came in 1976. My husband and I were young idealists who worked on his campaign.

The world defines 'waste' very differently than Jesus does.

I don't need government to be successful.

We're seeing the fulfillment of the Book of Judges here in our own time - every man doing that which is right in his own eyes.

I am proud of my husband, Marcus, the love of my life, and his Swiss heritage. Even though I have been a dual citizen since I was married in 1978, I have never exercised any rights of that citizenship.

I have a very high opinion of Steve King and his ability, so I would encourage him to consider any position for higher office.

I wish the American media would take a great look at the views of the people in Congress and find out, are they pro-America or anti-America? I think people would be - would love to see an expose like that.

I've always been pro-life from conception to natural death. It's important for the Republican nominee to maintain what we stand for. We are the party that stands for all of life, whether it's convenient or inconvenient, whether it's perfect or imperfect.

The Minnesota Republican hierarchy didn't want me to run against their incumbent in 2000; they didn't know who I was. And once many party bigwigs did get to know me, they weren't sure that I could win the seat.

I'm not motivated by vanity, glory or the quest for power.

I want to state unequivocally for the world, as well as for the markets, as well as for the American people: I have no doubt that we will not lose the full faith and credit of the United States.

I don't want the United States to be in a global economy where our economic future is bound to that of Zimbabwe. We can't necessarily trust the decisions that are being made financially in other countries.

You will never see President Bachmann step one toe out of the United States and apologize for this country.

The law limits anyone from serving as president of the United States for more than eight years. And in my opinion - well, eight years is also long enough for an individual to serve as a representative for a specific Congressional district.

No politician was more maligned than Ronald Reagan.

The biased left-wing media does what it wants. That's not going to define me or hamper me.

The Tea Party is an organic, spontaneous movement that rose up in opposition to to the Pelosi-Reid-Obama agenda.

The American people's vote can't be bought.

My view of foreign policy is that we need to be careful and circumspect about United States intervention in any foreign nation.

I was opposed to the U.S. involvement in Libya from the very start. President Obama has never made a compelling national security case on Libya.
