One of the very best reasons I can think of to vote for me as president is to have Laura Bush as first lady of the United States of America.

One of the most meaningful things that's happened to me since I've been the governor - the president - governor - president. Oops. Ex-governor. I went to Bethesda Naval Hospital to give a fellow a Purple Heart, and at the same moment I watched him - get a Purple Heart for action in Iraq - and at that same - right after I gave him the Purple Heart, he was sworn in as a citizen of the United States - a Mexican citizen, now a United States citizen.

ÉI think the president ought to get on the phone with the (Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries) cartel and say, 'We expect you to open your spigots.' One reason why the price is so high is because the price of crude oil has been driven up.

I think I'd be a better president because I was in combat.

I am a war president.

So, I'm lying on the couch and Laura walks in and I say, 'Free at last,' and she says 'You're free all right, you're free to do the dishes.' So I say, 'You're talking to the former president, baby,' and she said, 'consider this your new domestic policy agenda.'
