It isn't that I was born thinking I had to be president. I'm getting a lot of encouragement to run from people across the country. I don't believe this is a rash decision.
I think it's best if there's an amendment that goes on the ballot where the people can weigh in. Every time this issue has gone on the ballot, the people have voted to retain the traditional definition of marriage as recently as California in 2008.

I was opposed to the U.S. involvement in Libya from the very start. President Obama has never made a compelling national security case on Libya.
Both Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich supported the Wall Street bailout.
