Remarks at the 2016 Republican National Committee - July 19, 2016
July 19, 2016
Let me start out with a question. Are there any mountaineers in the audience tonight? m Shelley Moore Capito, the first woman ever elected to serve the state of West Virginia in the United States Senate. Ladies and gentlemen, we face challenging times, times in which we as leaders must ask: How can we secure a future that's brighter for our next generation? That's always the challenge of leadership, and this election is no different. But with every challenge comes great opportunity and that opportunity is what I would like […]

And I'm delighted to have this opportunity to talk with you about the state of our country today. Nearly 160 years ago, Abraham Lincoln gave a speech in this state house that marked […]

Remarks at the 2016 Democratic National Convention - July 25, 2016
July 25, 2016
Thank you all. Thank you so much. You know, it’s hard to believe that it has been eight years since I first came to this convention to talk with you about why I thought my husband should be president. Remember how I told you about his character and convictions, his decency and his grace, the traits that we’ve seen every day that he’s served our country in the White House? I also told you about our daughters, how they are the heart of our hearts, the center of our world. […]

Thank you, Joe, and thank you to Massachusetts for the great honor of serving as your Senator. Wow! What a night. Michelle Obama. Cory Booker. And we still have Bernie coming up. Bernie reminds us what Democrats fight for every day! Thank you, Bernie! Thank you. Now, we are here tonight because America faces a choice, the choice of a new president. On one side is a man who inherited a fortune from his father and kept it going by cheating people and skipping out on debts. A man who […]

Distinguished delegates, Republicans, and millions of my fellow Americans watching around the country, especially those in Iowa: it’s an honor to be with you in Cleveland, and to be on this stage with fellow veterans. Among them are Special Operations Master Sargent Jason Beardsley, and my colleague, Congressman and Navy SEAL Ryan Zinke, who you’ll hear from shortly.

Thank you very much, and thank you all for allowing me to be here this evening. My name is Joni Ernst, I am a Republican, and I am running for U.S. Senate.

Three things. I am a mother, I am […]

Aloha to the delegation from the great state of Hawaii, and a special aloha to the delegation from Illinois, my home for the past year. The last 8 years have been a wakeup call to American Jews. More feel as I do—that there’s something wrong with America’s leadership today. A new direction is needed, particularly on the many issues important to Jewish Americans. At home, we’re approaching 20 trillion dollars in debt, more adults than ever aren’t working, and public education in our cities is in tatters. The social compact […]
