I grew up in a really small town with not a lot of money and I liked singing but it was just something that was a hobby.

Clearly this is a tough economic time and a lot of families are hurting. So when we talk to parents we talk about small changes for kids and things that don't cost extra money. Like adding water and eliminating sugary drinks and sodas. That's going to save money right there. Or adding a few more vegetables.

I call crony capitalism where you take money from successful small businesses spend it in Washington on favored industries on favored individuals picking winners and losers in the economy that's not pro-growth economics. That's not entrepreneurial economics. That's not helping small businesses. That's cronyism that's corporate welfare.

I know that campaigns can seem small and even silly. Trivial things become big distractions. Serious issues become sound bites. And the truth gets buried under an avalanche of money and advertising. If you're sick of hearing me approve this message believe me - so am I.

I lived with my mom in a really small apartment. My bedroom was like in the living room. That's why I still love to sleep on couches now.

I was brought up by a single mom in a poor town in Arkansas and while some aspects of small-town life were really positive - like the fact that everyone there is really sweet and hospitable - there is also this close-minded mentality and that naturally made me want to rebel.

Washington has got to across the board lower taxes for small businesses so that our mom and pops can reinvest and hire people so that our businesses can thrive.

Thankfully I have my mom and a small group of close friends who are there for me 24/7 and whom I can trust and depend on.

I stand fearlessly for small dogs the American Flag motherhood and the Bible. That's why people love me.

Some men never feel small but these are the few men who are.
