“We have made great strides, but somehow we've got to create a climate so that everybody can do well, not just some.”

“Abortion is an attack on the family and the humanity that unites us all.”

“We're not separate races. There's only one human race.”

“When you see the political parties squabble, if a baby is not allowed to be born, all the other issues do not come into play.”

“While I voted for Mr. Trump, my confidence remains in God for life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”

“This is the 21st century, and we would all like to think racism is dead in America. Actually, that's not the case: still there are some racial issues that are out across this nation, and so we have a responsibility as compassionate citizens of America, no matter what our ethnic group happens to be, to confront these issues when they arise.”

“I'm born into a family of preachers. So I want Mr. Trump to remember that many people who voted for him took a long time praying for him. And if he can take some of that divine guidance, that's going to help him out.”

“If black lives matter, then why is it that black women are more than five times as likely as a white woman to have an abortion? I think the womb that brings forth the black life should matter... Because black lives absolutely matter, what about the babies in that womb? What about that mama?”

“The role of matriarch and patriarch are distinct, and in the King family, we have been blessed with strong examples of both.”

“Apology is often the first step in correcting a wrong. Having moved for a position of saying 'I don't need forgiveness,' Mr. Trump is now taking a second look at past behaviors, things that he's said and done that he regrets. While he is not asking for forgiveness for being human, he is admitting that he's made mistakes and humbly making apologies.”

“Abortion is not health care. A woman has a right to her body, but that is not her body. What about the baby?”

“People need jobs, people need happy and successful lives; there should be marriage between one man and one woman, there should the value of person from conception until natural death.”

“President Obama is traveling around the country, proposing a stimulus bill that has already failed once. Instead of having an honest discussion about whether or not a plan that already failed once will fail again, the establishment would rather distract the American people with gossip.”

“If Senator Obama becomes pro-life then I'll consider giving him my vote.”

“I pray that all polar opposites learn to agape love, live, and work together as brothers and sisters - or perish as fools.”

“Herman Cain continues to show himself to be a leader.”

“We do need unity, and from my perspective as a minister myself, God has not forgotten America.”

“My mother wanted to abort me, and that was basically a family secret. My grandfather stopped her and said that he had a dream and saw me perfectly. He was a prophetic dreamer, like Martin.”

“Our children need to remember to love each other, how to honor each other, their parents, God, and their neighbors.”

“Under President Trump, our nation is going to make great strides toward protecting the unborn. Priests for Life is in the vanguard of the fight for life, and having the president with us, rather than against us, will make all the difference.”
