We need to find areas where we can agree and work together on.

Our goal should be to enable every person who lives in this country to live up to his or her God-given potential.

There will always be some space there because there will have to be some room for Americans of good faith to disagree.

I am pleased today to announce my intention to nominate Tom Loftus as the Ambassador to Norway.

I believe, to be fair, that a lot of the people who are against this agreement were against the original agreement.

Passage of the NAFTA is a high priority of our administration, and the appointment of Bill Daley to coordinate our efforts for its adoption should be viewed as a signal of my personal commitment.

I am pleased to announce that William Daley has agreed to serve as Chairman of the administration's Task Force on the North American Free Trade Agreement.

I am heartened to know that Governor Celeste will help in our fight to bring health security to every American.

I want to reiterate the strong support of the U.S. for the efforts of the Secretary General to carry out his good-offices mandate.

The United States is playing a leading role in the work of the CWC Preparatory Commission.

I think it will help the American economy.

There has never been a trade agreement with this kind of environmental protection in it.

Governor Celeste's proven ability to forge bipartisan consensus will be a great help as Democrats and Republicans work together to reform our health care system.

NAFTA is a pathbreaking trade agreement because its implementation will bring a better deal for American workers, companies, and consumers.

The case for NAFTA is strong, and in Bill Daley I have found the strongest possible advocate to make that case.

Whether we gain jobs or not, and gain good jobs, depends on whether there is more demand for American products and services.

Governor Celeste is a strong, effective, charismatic leader, and a remarkable motivator of people.

I believe, as I said repeatedly, that if we could get these side agreements... this trade agreement means a better future for America's workers, for American industry, for the American economy.
