This is the city of dreamers and time and again it's the place where the greatest dream of all the American dream has been tested and has triumphed.

I was really bright as a kid and tested well and it was clear that I was going to get scholarships to any schools I wanted. My dad always said I could be an engineer at that time it was the elite of society: steady job working in science which was then the answer to every problem we had. It was kind of a mandate. Kind of a dream he had for me.

The future is not Big Government. Self-serving politicians. Powerful bureaucrats. This has been tried tested throughout history. The result has always been disaster. President Obama your agenda is not new. It's not change and it's not hope.

I have always detested any departure from reality an attitude which I relate to my mother's poor mental health.

The amazing fact is that America is founded on a document. It's a work in progress. It can be tested by each generation.

The divine right of husbands like the divine right of kings may it is hoped in this enlightened age be contested without danger.
