January 24, 2015--In his opening
remarks, U.S. Rep. Steve King said he hoped the Summit would help to "launch the next era of American
exceptionalism."
"Do you believe that the next president of the United States is going
to be speaking from this stage to you today?" King asked attendees, who
responded enthusiatically. King set out some potential platform
planks for 2016. He offered an imprompu prayer,
asking God "that out of this process you will identify and lift up the
individual whom you will use to restore the soul of this great
country." [transcript]
