We need to have a responsible way that is legal and constitutional, but a way that we can make sure that if someone is an enemy combatant, or aligned with an enemy combatant, the United States and the people of this great country, we've got to have the tools we need to prevent another act from happening.

I don't see a reason today to do that, certainly for us the most important thing we can do is lift the political restrictions this administration has put on the 3,000-some military personnel already in Iraq so they can go out and do what they're trained to do.

So the reason I'm talking about it is not because I'm a governor today. The reason I'm talking about it is because I'm running for president of the United States. And I'm going to be in a position to affect that.

Let's be clear, the monitoring this proposes is an absolute joke. So anyone who pretends like that's somehow something that's extraordinary, it's not. This is some of the weakest monitoring.

Through the years, Wisconsin has built a strong trade relationship with China, and the opening of the Wisconsin Center China will help Wisconsin businesses continue to strengthen our trade relationships and grow export opportunities.

There's a strong cultural bond there, there's a good tradition there, and it's one where that trust has been built, not just in the last few years, but over time.

There's serious work to be done rather than pomp andcircumstance. We need to see some backbone from President Obama on U.S.-China relations.

Given China's massive cyberattacks against America, its militarization of the South China Sea, continued state interference with its economy, and persistent persecution of Christians and human rights activists, President Obama needs to cancel the state visit, there's serious work to be done rather than pomp and circumstance. We need to see some backbone from President Obama on U.S.-China relations.

New Hampshire, though, is really kind of special here. They're accustomed to a lot of attention. We want to give them that kind of attention, we want to do it in unique ways.

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker

Somebody told me months and months ago here that you can't buy the vote in New Hampshire, you have to earn it, and that's come up over and over again, people want to hear you, they want to compare you.

I think part of the reason why we see some of the things we see across this country are because people want to send a message, i talk to voters all the time in this state and around the country who said, 'We want to send a message to Republican leaders in Washington that when you make promises on the campaign trail, we wanna see it.' Whether it's repealing Obamacare or standing up against illegal immigration.

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker

Think about this, we were told by Republican leaders during the campaign cycle last year that we just needed a Republican Senate to be elected to repeal Obamacare. Well, here we sit, you know both chambers of the United States Congress have been controlled since January by Republicans and yet there's not a bill on the President's desk to repeal Obamacare.

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker

I said to them, the voters had told us they wanted is to be big and be bold. As you can imagine, at the time, there were some Republican lawmakers who were kind of uneasy with the idea of taking on the status quo.

I've laid out a number of important reforms when it comes to immigration early this year, not only about securing the border but enforcing the law, in light particularly of what we've seen with sanctuary cities that we need to make sure that we enforce the law in every part of this country and not just in some parts or the other.

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker

I've talked about how going forward I believe we should change the rules, the law but in terms of deporting the best thing we can do is enforce the law, we enforce the law and require employers across America to uphold the law -- which means an effective E-verify system -- I think that ultimately puts us in a better place.

I've got two boys in college now, but when they were in high school, we used to have a rule that they could have friends over, including girls, as long as the door to their room was open, to me, the provisions in this deal are like telling teenage boys not only can you have the door closed, but we gotta shout up the stairs before we walk up the steps, 'Hey, we're coming up to check and see what you're doing, I just want to give you advance notice,'.

You would't do it as a parent, we certainly shouldn't be doing it with the leading sponsor -- the leading country when it comes to state-sponsored terrorism.
