I am interested in finding solutions to problems.
Let us not seek the Republican answer or the Democratic answer, but the right answer. Let us not seek to fix the blame for the past. Let us accept our own responsibility for the future.
What we do as a society is seek simple answers.
I believe that when you find problems, you should also find solutions.
I think I'm seen as trustworthy. I'm seen as having determination and persistence, and I'm seen as having a capacity to reach achievable answers to difficult issues.
You need a group of people who will continually realize that you will run into problems, and for each you will have hundreds or thousands of ways you can approach it.
Our nation, in a short quarter-millennium, catapulted itself to global preeminence by solving the world's greatest problems and exporting those solutions to the rest of the world.
I try to shy away from labels and focus on the issues.
I'm not a professional politician, I'm a problem solver.
The GOP should be the GSP: the Grand Solutions Party. It should be about solutions, not talking points.
Focus 90% of your time on solutions and only 10% of your time on problems.
Speakers are not supposed to waste time on platitudes, but the capacity of this generation for ignoring the obvious and concentrating on the negative and the obscure is immense.
The hope for our nation and our world lies within our ability to innovate and move forward technologically.
My friends tell me that I have a tendency to point out problems without offering solutions, but they never tell me what I should do about it.
My way of thinking is like that: always positive.
The solutions all are simple - after you have arrived at them. But they're simple only when you know already what they are.
Sometimes you have got to look at things really positively - without putting your head in the sand, you have got to manage the negatives and keep putting a positive slant on it, keep trying to find answers.
We're communicators, we're problem solvers, and we're lateral thinkers, and there's nothing that can't be improved with that. The world needs us, and we want to be needed.
I'm not afraid of problem-solving. There is always a way.
If you're a white candidate, it is twice as important for you to be talking about racial inequity and not just describing the problem - which is fashionable in politics - but actually talking about what we're going to do about it and describing the outcomes we're trying to solve for.
I truly believe that my songs bring the answers and the solutions, as opposed to just talking about the problems. My music at its core is joyful.
Every problem we have in this country we created and we can fix it.
The problems of the real world are primarily those you are left with when you refuse to apply their effective solutions.
To every problem there is already a solution whether you know it or not.
Listen to the people who are talking about how to fix what's wrong, not the ones who just work people into a snit over the problems. Listen to the people who have ideas about how to fix things, not the ones who just blame others.
