12. When questioned about his campaign stop at a white supremacist..
...camp, Mr. Bush said this:

"Do not subscribe--I mean, you know, you cannot subscribe those views to me because I went to a university to speak to try to convince 6,000 people to be on my team. Ronald Reagan went there and spoke. Do you think the Catholics in Michigan rejected Ronald Reagan when he asked for their vote for the presidency? Of course not. They listened to what Reagan had to say, and they looked at Ronald Reagan's heart. And I do not agree with this notion that somehow if I go to try to attract votes and to lead people toward a better tomorrow, somehow I get subscribed to some--some doctrine gets subscribed to me. I don't accept that, and neither should you. And it's unfair."

-- Meet the Press, Feb. 13
