I do favor the right of the Attorney General to obtain pre-merger injunction.

I am not perfect.

Our public opinion polls have shown since the convention that I have strong support from all religious groups.

Because of my success in the primaries, people began to study the beliefs of Southern Baptists.

I believe that the so-called prejudice against me because I am a southerner and because I'm a Baptist was overestimated to begin with.

I think that if I try to ascribe that completely to religious convictions, that would probably be inappropriate.

I would do everything I could through moral persuasion and through my own actions as President to minimize a need for abortion.

I would like to be known as the foremost protector of consumers.

I think it borders on the sacrilegious.

Regulatory agencies will, indeed, be tribunes for the people.

I believe that it would take approximately a year before a final and comprehensive proposal can be made to the Congress.

I have been victorious in some hard-fought campaigns.

I am strongly opposed to the proliferation of new agencies, departments, bureaus, boards and commissions because it adds on to an already confused federal bureaucratic structure.

I think that the government should do everything possible to minimize abortions.

My life has been shaped in the church.

The prime responsibility of any President is to guarantee the security of our nation with a well organized and effective fighting force.

I will insist on strict enforcement of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act to protect our oceans, lakes, rivers, and streams from unneeded and harmful commercial pollution.

The people of developing nations need our aid, technology and knowledge.
