"People, not government, are the source of America's strength, Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney told a crowded room in Spartanburg late Thursday. "'There is no place that is more important to the future strength of America than the American home,' Romney told a crowd of more than 600 people at the Spartanburg County Republican Party's annual Presidents Day Banquet. "'The work that goes on within the walls of a home is the most important work that is ever done in America. ... And if we want to strengthen America, we need to strengthen the American family.' "Romney's speech stressed family values, the need to cut off investments in businesses linked to the Iranian regime and the Republican belief in less government."
