Rick Santorum, Politician
"If you like small government you need to work hard at having a strong national defense that is not so militant.

Ron Paul, Politician
"I am just absolutely convinced that the best formula for giving us peace and preserving the American way of life is freedom, limited government, and minding our own business overseas"
