Politics is about sifting through half truths, untruth’s and downright lies, we’ll get a chance to sift through those as our campaign works and moves forwards. I think the system is broken in Washington and we have to do something to change the rules.

We do something very well in Frankfurt. We balance the budget every year. Republicans and Democrats can quarrel but at the end of the year we balance the budget, because we have to.

If we could pass just one reform in Washington I would say….make them balance the budget, every single year. We need term limits, balanced budgets, and we need to reform the system.

Its not that the Emperor has no clothes…it’s that the Emperor has NO money.

We are out of money, 1.7 trillion dollars in debt, and they are still giving you a check. But where does the check come from though. the stimulus check or 4,500 cash for clunkers check, where does the money come from?

WE HAVE TO BORROW IT.

We don’t collect enough taxes, so we have to borrow it. We are under a serious circumstance in our country and we have to do something serious to reform the system. Its not enough to just elect a different guy to go up there. You have to fundamentally change the rules of the system.

“In questions of power let no more be heard of confidence in man , but bind him of his mischief by the chains of the constitution.”

We used to listen to and obey the constitution but we have lost our way. We have to do something, we have to reform the system, it means changing the rules, and it means we have to acknowledge that there are problems, and we have to work together to fix them.
