I am encouraged and inspired by you, and confident in the knowledge that our democracy is safe so long as young people know that it is not a spectator sport. I would like to thank […]

Announcement of Candidacy for Republican Presidential Nomination - June 27, 2011
June 27, 2011
Good morning, it is so great to be here in Iowa this morning and even better to be here in Waterloo where I was born. I think it is entirely fitting that we are here today at the Snowden house, the site that was once the Waterloo Women's Club, so thank you for being here. My name is Michele Bachmann. I stand here in the midst of many friends and many family members to announce formally my candidacy for president of the United States. I do so because I am […]

Announced as Vice President at Dayton, Ohio rally - Aug. 29, 2008
August 29, 2008
Palin's speech begins at 10:48 in the video. Thank you so much. And I thank you, Sen. McCain and Mrs. McCain, for the confidence that you have placed in me. Senator, I am honored to be chosen as your running mate. I will be honored to serve next to the next president of the United States. I know that when Sen. McCain gave me this opportunity, he had a short list of highly qualified men and women, and to have made that list at all — it was a privilege. […]

Sedi Gubernatorial Forum - July 15, 2014
July 15, 2014
CHRISTENSEN: Thank you, Kim. Thank you, everyone. Thank you for coming out. I want to thank the CRRA, Our Town Frederiksted, and, of course, the Democratic Party for hosting it and for hosting this in Frederiksted. I think it's very appropriate that it is held here in Frederiksted because Frederiksted is really the poster child for all of the challenges that are confronting this territory. But you know what, it's also the poster child for the opportunities that are waiting for us to seize. The people of the Virgin Islands, […]

Thank you, Kentuckians. My fellow Kentuckians, it is an honor to stand before you as your nominee. Thank you for the overwhelming confidence that you have in the campaign we, together, are running and the race we will win in November. Together we will take this fight to Mitch McConnell and hold him accountable for his 30 years of failed leadership. Together we will make history and Kentucky will finally get a senator who puts people above partisanship, one that will work 24 hours a day, seven days a week, […]

Candidacy Announcement for 2014 U.S. Senate Race - Nov. 30, 2012
November 30, 2012
Good morning, everybody. It's a bright day, yes. As Little Shelley said, "Today is my 29th birthday plus 30." Today is my 59th birthday. I was actually born on Thanksgiving. My brother and sister are here, probably ruined by brother's day because he got a little sister. When I was born on Thanksgiving Day, my parents always said that they were going to name me Thankful Evermore. They didn't, but I am thankful evermore today for all of you, for many of the faces I see in the crowd today […]

Stump Speech - April 8, 2010
April 8, 2010
I want to tell you a little bit about myself, and then we’ll go into why I’m running and then let you ask some questions because it’s more interesting to hear from you than it is from me. I was born and raised in the small town of Bamberg, which, if any of you know where that is, it is a small little town that you couldn’t think about doing something wrong without somebody already calling and telling your mom. It was a great place to grow up because we […]
