Sadly, far too many politicians in Washington lack the courage to do something to fix our problems. They are worried about the political implications of making the hard choices we so desperately need to cut spending and shrink government.

Matt Salmon

I want to see far more decisions taken far closer to the patients, the passengers and the pupils. Far more power for locally and regionally elected politicians who understand best the needs of their areas. And far more say too for the dedicated staff at all levels in health and education.

Charles Kennedy

No one will really understand politics until they understand that politicians are not trying to solve our problems. They are trying to solve their own problems - of which getting elected and re-elected are number one and number two. Whatever is number three is far behind.

Thomas Sowell

I'm an electrical engineer. Honestly, I think we have too many lawyers in Washington. Maybe we need some more engineers. They're trained to solve problems, and we can actually do math, which is a desperately needed skill back there.

Greg Gianforte

I think Americans are - particularly, independent voters are looking at Washington, and they see too many taxes, too much spending, too much debt, too many Washington takeovers, and they want to provide a check and a balance to what they see as a runaway, overreaching Washington government.

Lamar Alexander

I think I can fix the problems in Washington that people desperately want to see fixed.

Jeb Bush

Politicians are elected to do what is right, but too many are just doing what is right for the party.

Theo Paphitis

I'm tired of politicians saying one thing to get elected and then going to Washington, D.C., or Denver or wherever and completely forgetting about you.

Darryl Glenn

Too many politicians are so worried about getting re-elected that they fear taking an unpopular position. I don't.

Matthew Whitaker

Too many of the career politicians, the established politicians in Washington on both sides of the aisle, are representing their party more than the people. And no matter what the media says, the ballot box will determine what people truly believe.

Matt Bevin

Many people are looking to Washington for answers, but I'm here to tell you, if we wait for the politicians to solve the problems of our day, we will be waiting a long time.

Paul Zane Pilzer

The reason so many problems do not get solved in Washington is that solving those problems is not the No. 1 priority: Re-election is.

Thomas Sowell

Politicians generally respond to who is going to help them get elected and re-elected.

Michael Bloomberg

We don't value food in Britain, so therefore the cheaper it is the better it is. We all eat far too much, we all pay far too little for our food. We have environmental problems, we have health problems, we have food transport problems.

Monty Don

Politicians make promises and they don't do what they said they would do: the reason why so many politicians in Washington are unhappy with me.

Ted Cruz

There was reference made to our leaders being stupid. It's not a question of stupidity. It's that they don't want to enforce the immigration laws. That there are far too many in the Washington cartel that support amnesty.
