"I'm not a Republican because I grew up rich, but because I didn't want to spend the rest of my life poor, waiting for the government to rescue me." Mike Huckabee said this in his speech at the 2008 Republican National Convention, and it makes for a very nice, concise explanation to those who completely misunderstand what it means to be a Republican.
