[People] are woefully underestimating this country and what it can achieve.

No misfortune is worse than underestimating the enemy. Underestimating the enemy, I risk losing my treasure.
Most people in this country, while they might not be happy about things, also are woefully ignorant about many things. Sometimes people can learn, but other times they have to be confronted.
National security is a place where the private sector could be helpful because the government is woefully behind the technology curve. But secondly, the bureaucratic processes that have been in place since 9/11 are woefully inadequate as well.
I think that people are able to see that I am working hard, that I am striving openly, honestly and sincerely to achieve the results the results our country needs. I think that they are also able to see that not all goes well. Our people are smart and sharp-sighted.

I love playing for my country, getting the support. Especially for the kids and everybody, showing my example of what I can achieve so early. And maybe they can achieve it, too, just to get that in their minds.
I've spent my whole life with people underestimating me.
Happens to me all the time...People are always underestimating my dumbness.
That's something I've struggled with my entire life - people underestimating me.
If you do right by people, and you talk to the basic issues most people care about and have a vision for how we can achieve so much more as a country, as a community, I believe that resonates with people.
The good thing about people underestimating models is that the bar is set so low, you tend to impress people more easily.
