Codex Perductum

1. "The first step is to offer immediate relief to families who are struggling right now while helping to jumpstart economic growth and create jobs. Between a sluggish economy and gas prices rising above $4 a gallon, the American people cannot wait another six months for help."

2. "Small businesses are the job engine of America, and I will make it easier for them to grow and create more jobs."

3."Government has grown by 60 percent in the last eight years. That's simply inexcusable. When I'm president, I will order a stem to stern review of government, modernize how it does business and save billions of dollars. I'll veto every single bill with wasteful pork-barrel spending on it."

4."I believe that we have a national security interest in making sure Iraq is secure. I've been saying this consistently."

5. "Three years ago, I traveled with some colleagues, including Senator Hillary Clinton and Senator Lindsey Graham, to Yukon territory, a front line of global warming. We flew over miles of devastated spruce forests, every tree killed by insects that thrive in warm temperatures. As the trees die, fires multiply, and across the region the waters are vanishing. We heard from men and women near Whitehorse whose traditional way of life had been radically disrupted. All of this is just a glimpse of the grave environmental dangers that global warming can bring, unless we act to prevent it. I was among the first in Congress to introduce legislation to curb greenhouse gasses. If I am elected president, it will be a top priority to enact an energy policy equal to this challenge. "

6."To keep our nation prosperous, strong and growing, we have to rethink, reform and reinvent the way we educate our children, train our workers, deliver health care services, support retirees, fuel our transportation network, stimulate research and development, and harness new technologies."

7."America, this is our moment. This is our time. Our time to turn the page on the policies of the past. Our time to bring new energy and new ideas to the challenges we face. Our time to offer a new direction for this country that we love. "

8."At the end of the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus closes by saying, "Whoever hears these words of mine, and does them, shall be likened to a wise man who built his house upon a rock: and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house, and it fell not, for it was founded upon a rock." [Matthew 7: 24-25 Here at [deleted], you are blessed to worship in a house that has been founded on the rock of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior."

9. "Many issues [are] at stake in this election. All of these challenges and more will face the next president of the United States and I will not leave them for some unluckier generation of leaders to deal with."

10."Yes, we need more cops on the street. Yes, we need fewer guns in the hands of people who shouldn't have them. Yes, we need more money for our schools, and more outstanding teachers in the classroom, and more afterschool programs for our children. Yes, we need more jobs and more job training and more opportunity in our communities. But we also need families to raise our children. We need fathers to realize that responsibility does not end at conception. We need them to realize that what makes you a man is not the ability to have a child - it's the courage to raise one."
