Leon TrotskyLeon Trotsky I think God has blessed us. He has blessed the Republican Party with some very good candidates. The Democrats can’t even find one.
Marco RubioMarco Rubio I do think we should be focused on substance and record. If you want a candidate who opposes amnesty, who opposes citizenship for the 12 million people here illegally, I’m the only candidate in the race who opposes that.
