We still need baseball.

We celebrate a special corner of our rich and varied mosaic of race and ethnicity and culture and tradition that is America.

This is who we are.

I do not believe any major American company on the verge of the 21st century would cut its investment in education or research or technology.

I want the 21st century to be a time when every American has the chance to live up to the fullest of his or her God-given abilities.

I will veto, if I have to, any attempt to mortgage your future.

I want to tell you is, if you look at the future, there is no nation in the world as well-positioned as the United States for the 21st century.

This country is in better shape than it was 2 1/2 years ago because we have worked hard to do what we said we would do.

That is not the question. The question is, how shall we do it?

It is not only morally the right thing to do, it is a gold mine for us if we will turn away from those who would divide us.

The 21st century is ours if we will simply be true to our values and follow our vision.

America is safer tonight because we didn't give up our leadership.

Nothing, nothing, could give us a greater asset for the 21st century than our racial and ethnic diversity.

I think it matters that we passed the Family and Medical Leave Act so people don't lose their jobs when their children are sick.

I do not believe America would be stronger if we denied tens of thousands of young children the chance to be in the Head Start program.

Make sure, make sure, that you have taken the time to really know and care about and understand somebody who is of a different race.

That's not the kind of America I want to live in.

I like to see a Democratic crowd just a little rowdy.
