As Ronald Reagan understood, the difference between a good tax structure and a poor one has a very real impact not only on how much money we have in our pockets every April 15th, but whether we have a job to support our families in the first place.

I am a true constitutionalist, and whether it is our state's rights, personal property rights or the right to bear arms, the federal government will know if they come to Michigan trying to trample our rights, it will have a fight on its hands under a Bouchard administration.

Just because you have checks in the checkbook doesn't mean that you have money in the bank, and Washington has failed to understand that.

That tax relief can spur the economy and thereby benefit all Americans is something that Washington Democrats used to understand. President Kennedy, for example, aggressively cut taxes after being elected to stimulate the economy as a means of helping all Americans.

Part of my problem is that I cannot dispel the myths that have somehow accumulated over the years. Somebody writes something, it's completely off the wall, but it gets filed and repeated until everyone believes it. For instance, I've read that I wear a football helmet in the car.

Football should never be a worry. It should be exciting. When a child plays football outside, he doesn't need to worry. Professionals should be the same.

My idea is to return to Spanish football, I want to play for a big club in La Liga, that would be great for my career.

In my time, I experienced a black man not being able to be the quarterback of a football team.
