"It's stupid government policies. Forty percent of the stores out there don't have [baby] formula on the shelves. What are these women supposed to do? Government has failed them in a big way ... Having raised four children myself – and now watching my nine grandchildren grow – I know how important it is to make policies that help families."

"I want families that don't have a lot of money to be able to pick the schools that their kids can go. When they're trapped in schools where the kids aren't learning and they're not benefiting or they're teaching garbage, I want the parents to be able to take that child and take the tax dollars with them to whatever school they want their kids to go to ... That, to me, is really, really important. Because what's important is not the system – it's the child."

"I'm the only candidate running for governor that wants to get rid of our income tax. In Texas and Florida, where they have no income tax, a lot of these jobs are going over there because they don't have an income tax ... We won't have to raise the other taxes. We'll just get rid of the income tax and the revenues are going to grow, because we're going to see a lot more business come in."
