we know there a lot of excit here becaus thi elect is about veri __PUNCT__ veri big_thing __PUNCT__

thi is not just about job although it is about job __PUNCT__

and we obvious need to do someth about job in thi countri and we put_forward an econom_plan that __PUNCT__ the wall_street_journal __PUNCT__ call suppli side_econom for the work man __PUNCT__

why __PUNCT__ becaus we care to make sure that everi american ha the opportun to rise that the ladder goe down __PUNCT__ not just to those who might be vote for us __PUNCT__

i put_forward anoth plan that sai we go to cut __MONEY___trillion in five year __PUNCT__ balanc the budget in five year and in everi year __PUNCT__ we will spend less monei than the year befor __PUNCT__

year after year after year until the budget is balanc __PUNCT__

no more cut in the rate of growth __PUNCT__

we know it about big_thing though __PUNCT__ realli big thing __PUNCT__

more than just the economi __PUNCT__

it about foundat_principl and we seen that plai out here just in the last few week __PUNCT__

everi speech i given from the __NUM__ town_hall_meet i did in iowa __PUNCT__ i talk about found_principl __PUNCT__

thi campaign is go to be about a vision __PUNCT__

thi campaign go to be about who we ar as american becaus in essenc __PUNCT__ that what at stake __PUNCT__

thi is the most import elect in your lifetim __PUNCT__

it an elect about what kind of countri you go to leav to the next gener __PUNCT__

ar we go to be a countri that believ as our founder did __PUNCT__ that our right don't come from the govern __PUNCT__ thei come from a much higher author __PUNCT__

well __PUNCT__ there ar those in our countri and those in the oval_offic who believ that not the case __PUNCT__

thei believ that right do in fact come from the govern and that thei have gone around convinc the american_public that thei can in fact give you right __PUNCT__

the most import on that thei been abl to shove down the throat of the american public wa __PUNCT__ of cours __PUNCT__ the right to health_care __PUNCT__

the right to health care in obamacar __PUNCT__

and we see what happen when govern give you right __PUNCT__

when govern give you right __PUNCT__ govern can take awai those right __PUNCT__

when govern give you right __PUNCT__ govern can coerc you into do thing in exercis the right that thei gave you __PUNCT__

i been travel around thi countri talk about how obamacar will crush econom_freedom __PUNCT__

will make_peopl depend upon govern for the most import_thing __PUNCT__ their veri live __PUNCT__

and as a result __PUNCT__ govern will own you __PUNCT__

becaus you will have to pai tribut to washington in order to get the care you need for your children __PUNCT__

on of the reason i in thi race __PUNCT__ in fact __PUNCT__ a major reason i in thi race is becaus i think obamacar is a game changer for america __PUNCT__

margaret_thatcher said when she left the prime ministership of england __PUNCT__ she wa never abl to accomplish what reagan accomplish __PUNCT__

she said the reason __PUNCT__ the british nation_health health_care_system __PUNCT__

onc peopl have that depend __PUNCT__ thei ar never realli ever free again __PUNCT__

ladi and gentlemen __PUNCT__ we seen thi plai out on the stage in the last few week __PUNCT__

we seen the presid of the unit_state not onli tell you what insur_coverag you should have __PUNCT__ how much you go to pai __PUNCT__ how much you be fine if you don't __PUNCT__

but he now tell the cathol_church that thei ar forc to pai for thing that ar against their basic tenet and teach __PUNCT__ against their first amend right __PUNCT__

now __PUNCT__ interest enough __PUNCT__ here what thei forc them to do __PUNCT__

in an insur_polici __PUNCT__ thei forc them to pai for someth that cost just a few dollar __PUNCT__

is that what insur is for __PUNCT__ the foundat idea that we have the govern tell you that you have to pai for everyth as a busi __PUNCT__

thing that ar r not realli thing that you need insur for __PUNCT__

and still forc on someth that is not a critic econom need __PUNCT__

when you have an econom distress with which you would need insur __PUNCT__ but forc them even the more to do it for minor expens __PUNCT__

ladi and gentlemen __PUNCT__ thi is the kind of coercion that we can expect __PUNCT__

it not about contracept __PUNCT__

it about econom_liberti __PUNCT__

it about freedom of speech __PUNCT__

it about freedom of religion __PUNCT__

it about govern_control of your live and it got to stop __PUNCT__

and thi isn't the onli place that presid_obama tri to control your live __PUNCT__

of cours __PUNCT__ on of the favorit thing of the left is to us your sentiment __PUNCT__ your proper understand and belief that we ar steward of thi earth __PUNCT__

and that we have respons to hand off a beauti earth to the next gener __PUNCT__

and so __PUNCT__ thei us that and thei us it in the past to try to scare you into support radic idea on the environ __PUNCT__

thei tri it with thi idea __PUNCT__ thi politic of scienc call man __PUNCT__ made global_warm and presid_obama you mai rememb __PUNCT__ tri to pass cap and trade and tri to get control __PUNCT__ not onli of the health_care_system __PUNCT__ but of the energi_industri __PUNCT__ the manufactur industri __PUNCT__ anoth two big sector of thi economi __PUNCT__

and us thi facad of man __PUNCT__ made global_warm __PUNCT__

i stood up and fought against those thing __PUNCT__

why __PUNCT__ becaus thei will destroi the veri foundat of prosper in our countri __PUNCT__

you look at ani countri in the world and you look at their energi_consumpt __PUNCT__ the cost of energi and their qualiti of life __PUNCT__ their standard of live __PUNCT__

the more energi consumpt __PUNCT__ the higher the standard of live __PUNCT__

that just the bottom_line __PUNCT__

we need an america if we go to fuel a great and vibrant economi __PUNCT__ we need afford energi __PUNCT__

and thi administr ha gone out and not onli ha attack us with cap and trade __PUNCT__ and global_warm __PUNCT__ but now that that ha been thrown on the dust bin of histori __PUNCT__ now __PUNCT__ thei go after hydro frack __PUNCT__

i come from pennsylvania __PUNCT__

we do a littl bit of that in pennsylvania __PUNCT__ thank god __PUNCT__

and __PUNCT__ and guess what __PUNCT__ of cours now that we do hydro frack near the popul center __PUNCT__ the bogeyman come out __PUNCT__

look at what it go to do to you __PUNCT__

you know how mani well have been hydro frack in the unit_state __PUNCT__ oh __PUNCT__ about __NUM__ or __NUM__ __PUNCT__

where been all the nois __PUNCT__ ladi and gentlemen __PUNCT__ thei scare you to intimid you to trust them and to give them more power __PUNCT__

we need someon who will to go out on these big_issu of the dai and draw contrast __PUNCT__

we not go to win thi elect __PUNCT__ ladi and gentlemen __PUNCT__ becaus the republican_candid ha the most monei to beat up their oppon and win the elect __PUNCT__

we not go to win thi elect with over a lopsid monei advantag __PUNCT__

we won't have on in the fall __PUNCT__

presid_obama will have more monei whoever our nomine is __PUNCT__

so just think about what it go to take __PUNCT__

it go to take idea __PUNCT__ vision __PUNCT__ contrast __PUNCT__ a record of accomplish that can go up against the fail polici of barack_obama __PUNCT__

that the winner __PUNCT__

well __PUNCT__ let just take a look at that in the republican field __PUNCT__

who ha the boldest contrast __PUNCT__ who ha the record that thei can run on __PUNCT__ who ha the bold plan to turn thi economi around __PUNCT__ and to support the veri institut of our countri that provid the foundat of our countri __PUNCT__ faith and famili __PUNCT__ who ha that strong track_record and that contrast __PUNCT__ ok __PUNCT__

i guess i can quit now sinc you all convinc of that __PUNCT__ but let look at it __PUNCT__

on the issu of obamacar __PUNCT__ who ha a record of support health save_account and tort_reform and bottom up consum __PUNCT__ driven health_care for __NUM___year __PUNCT__

and who ha support __PUNCT__ in fact the stepchild of obamacar __PUNCT__ the person in massachusett who built the largest govern __PUNCT__ run health_care_system in the unit_state __PUNCT__

someon who would simpli give that issu awai in the fall __PUNCT__

give the issu awai of govern_control of your health __PUNCT__

who would be the better person to go after the obama_administr on try to control the energi and the manufactur_sector of our economi try to dictat to you what light to turn on and what car to drive __PUNCT__ would it be someon that bought into man __PUNCT__ made global_warm and impos the first carbon cap in the state of massachusett __PUNCT__ the first state to do so in the countri __PUNCT__ would it be someon who would take on the other big_issu of govern_control of our economi __PUNCT__ which is the govern control of the financi_servic servic_sector __PUNCT__ we see a lot of __PUNCT__ we see everybodi up on stage at the debat complain about dodd __PUNCT__ frank __PUNCT__

but two of the three candid support the wall_street bailout __PUNCT__ which wa the predecessor of which dodd __PUNCT__ frank wa base on __PUNCT__

so who would provid the clear contrast of believ in the conserv vision __PUNCT__ of bottom up __PUNCT__ free_peopl __PUNCT__ free_market __PUNCT__

not govern_depend __PUNCT__ govern_control __PUNCT__

ladi and gentlemen __PUNCT__ we not go to win with monei __PUNCT__ we go to win with contrast __PUNCT__

we go to win with idea __PUNCT__

we go to win by make barack_obama and hi fail polici the issu in thi race __PUNCT__

we won in __NUM__ becaus conserv ralli __PUNCT__

thei were excit about the contrast __PUNCT__

thei were excit about the candid who were put forth in that elect __PUNCT__

that why we won __PUNCT__

we alwai talk about how ar we go to get the moder __PUNCT__ why would an undecid voter vote for a candid of a parti who the parti not excit about __PUNCT__ we need conserv now to ralli for a conserv to go into __DATE__ to excit the conserv base __PUNCT__

to pull with that excit moder_voter and to defeat barack_obama in the fall __PUNCT__

i close __PUNCT__ i just sai thi __PUNCT__

when i restart our speech __PUNCT__ i refer to where our right came from __PUNCT__

and of cours __PUNCT__ that in our declar of independ __PUNCT__

i know a lot of folk like to focu on the constitut __PUNCT__

the constitut is obvious the oper manual for america __PUNCT__

it is the how of america and it essenti that we return our govern to the constraint of that constitut __PUNCT__

but __PUNCT__ the why of america __PUNCT__ who we ar __PUNCT__ is in the declar __PUNCT__

and these word __PUNCT__ we hold these truth to be self __PUNCT__ evid that all american ar creat_equal and endow by their creator with certain inalien right __PUNCT__

that who we ar __PUNCT__

a countri that wa built on the idea that right come to us from god and that the govern_job __PUNCT__ the on thing the govern job is to do is to protect those right so you can form famili and church and commun_organ __PUNCT__ civic group __PUNCT__ hospit __PUNCT__ school and build a great and just societi from the bottom up __PUNCT__

that the conserv vision for america __PUNCT__

that who we ar __PUNCT__

at the end of that declar __PUNCT__ there wa a phrase __PUNCT__

and these signer sign thi declar with thi pledg __PUNCT__ thei pledg their live __PUNCT__ their fortun and their sacr_honor __PUNCT__

no on is ask you todai to go out and pledg your life __PUNCT__

although __PUNCT__ thank god men and women step_forward everi singl_dai and put the uniform on of the militari and do so __PUNCT__

and i __PUNCT__ and i am not ask for your fortun __PUNCT__

although if you go to __URL__ a piec of that fortun would be veri help __PUNCT__

but i am ask for your honor __PUNCT__ to put your honor on the line __PUNCT__

honor is a term that not us veri often in america anymor __PUNCT__

and it is our respons to shepherd that inherit and to make it a greater and richer on for the next gener __PUNCT__
