I think family is very important in West Virginia and has long been so because the mountains made travel difficult in the past, and family members had to depend on each other.
There is no such thing as fun for the whole family.
If I want to work, I can. If I want to play golf, or ride my motorcycle, I can. But the rest of it is family. Sometimes you're not really needed by your family, but you're there. And my kids like to know I'm there.

Everything I have, my career, my success, my family, I owe to America.
I believe with all my heart that America remains 'the great idea' that inspires the world. It is a privilege to be born here. It is an honor to become a citizen here. It is a gift to raise your family here, to vote here, and to live here.
