[in 2009] Carbon dioxide is portrayed as harmful. But there isn't even one study that can be produced that shows that carbon dioxide is a harmful gas.

[in 2011] I will tell you that I had a mother last night come up to me here in Tampa, Florida, after the debate. She told me that her little daughter took that vaccine, that injection, and she suffered from mental retardation thereafter.

[in January 2011] But we also know that the very founders that wrote those documents worked tirelessly until slavery was no more in the United States . . . I think it is high time that we recognize the contribution of our forbearers who worked tirelessly -- men like John Quincy Adams, who would not rest until slavery was extinguished in the country.

[in 2005, regarding the federally mandated minimum wage] If we took away the minimum wage--if conceivably it was gone--we could potentially virtually wipe out unemployment completely because we would be able to offer jobs at whatever level.

[in 2011, comparing herself to actor John Wayne] Well what I want them [voters] to know is just like, John Wayne was from Waterloo, Iowa. That's the kind of spirit that I have, too. [NOTE: John Wayne was from Winterset, Iowa, not Waterloo.]
