“Obama’s NASA budget perfectly captures the difference between Kennedy's liberalism and Obama's. Kennedy's was an expansive, bold, outward-looking summons, Obama's is a constricted inward-looking call to retreat. Fifty years ago, Kennedy opened the New Frontier. Obama has just shut it.”

“We are told that Barack Obama believes too much in an America of high principle and bold endeavor, but when John Kennedy called of going to the moon, he didn't say, "It's too far to get there. We shouldn't even try."
Our people answered his call and rose to the challenge, and today an American flag still marks the surface of the moon.”

“Never has outright racism been so exciting or so chic — both here in America and abroad! Kumbaya! In fact, a German paper called him “the black JFK”, which is an insult to the late President Kennedy, who -- again, leaving aside the blatant racism here — was nowhere near as far left as Obama.”

“The first time, we did not know what change would look like. Now we do. The first time, we did not know Barack Obama. Now we do. Which dream will we carry into 2016? The American dream or Obama's dream? The future is not in my hands. It's not even in Obama's hands. The future is in your hands.”

Context: plays sound clip of Hillary Clinton's coughing fit in Cleveland> Would be nice to have her as president, wouldn't it? Really good. Sad. I mean, it's unbelievable. The woman's falling apart. I mean, you're not gonna laugh at this. She's collapsing on the stage!... Just who we need is this in the White House. After eight years of Obama we need a cripple in the White House. Can you believe this? You know, this shows insanity, by the way. Forget illness. It shows insanity. Keep going, I hope you didn't stop the tape. This went on for four and a half minutes.
