  2. Mitt Romney:

    I wouldn't presume to tell Paul what to do, but I do know that he is a man of ideas who is driven to see Chairman Ryan applied for the public good, every politician tries to convince people that they are that kind of leader ; almost none are -- Paul is. Paul has a driving passion to get America back on a path of growth and opportunity. With Paul, it's not just words, it's in his heart and soul.

  3. Thomas Boehle:

  4. Sridhar Warrier:

    They would be going to the battlefield but they were not in the driving seat, that means they were not in the cockpit. They would be the one who would be controlling the tactics, who would be controlling the weapons, who would be the eyes and ears for the aircraft and for the pilot, it's now that the glass ceiling has been broken in so far as getting into the naval cockpit is concerned.

  5. Axel Weber:

    The issue is the current policy divergence which I think is driving some of this international volatility. My view is this can not last for long because we've never seen a decoupling, if the U.S. were to stay course the dollar would continue to rise and I think that would recouple the economies. So at some point you're going to see the impact of current policies starting to mitigate.
