Mike Pence in Speech at 2008 CPAC conference
On Abortion:
Commit to unalienable right to life, including the unborn
The future of conservatism begins with a commitment to the unalienable right to life. Without the right to life there is no right to liberty or property.Our candidate must be willing to stand for the unborn and commit to appointing justices to the
Supreme Court who will consign Roe v. Wade to the ash heap of history.
And our candidates must be willing to deny federal funding to any organization that promotes abortion at home and abroad. It is time to end all federal funding to Planned Parenthood

On Civil Rights:
Future of conservatism demands traditional marriage
The future of conservatism demands that we stand for the traditional definition of marriage. Marriage was ordained by God and instituted in law. It is the glue of the American family and the safest harbor to raise children.
Conservatives must defend traditional marriage by passing the Federal Marriage Amendment.

On Government Reform:
Campaign Finance Reform is censorship
The future of conservatism demands that we oppose censorship, whether it takes the form of the so-called Fairness Doctrine or takes the form of Campaign Finance Reform.
Our freedom to speak and listen to who we want when we want is a blood-bought American right. We must not permit the Democrats to bring back the so-called Fairness Doctrine.

On Technology:
Reject the censorship of the Fairness Doctrine
Talk radio makes up the signal battalion of our movement. As Democrats pledge to return censorship to the airwaves of America, conservatives should know the next President of the United States can restore the so-called Fairness
Doctrine without an act of Congress. Our candidates must stand for freedom, reject the censorship of the left and commit to end the Fairness Doctrine once and for all
