Thank you all for coming today.
I’ve traveled around this great country of ours, and I’ve traveled in many parts of the world. I have even lived in two foreign countries—France and Massachusetts. But the place I love most is New Hampshire. It is where I was born and raised, and it’s where my wife Beth and I decided to raise our family. Growing up in this small town, I learned the values that have guided me in life: compassion, fairness, equality, honesty, independence, and faith.
I believe there are American values that unite us as a people. If we embrace those values with renewed confidence and spirit, we can find solutions to the challenges we face, strengthen the middle class, and restore economic stability.
