Democracy functions best when we have an active citizenry. – Rick Perry
Reforming public education, cutting property taxes, fixing adult and child protective services and funding our budget can all occur when Democrats and Republicans engage in consensus and cooperation – not cynicism and combat. – Rick Perry
You got to have a courageous president to stand up and says, listen, if – if you send a bill to me that spends more money than what weve coming in, Ill veto it. I mean, Im going to try to work with you the best I can, but Im going to veto it. – Rick Perry
Im worried about that man or woman sitting around – the coffee table tonight or in their kitchen talking about how are we going to get to work. How are we going to have the dignity to take care of our family. – Rick Perry
