I do think there is too much violence on television.

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

I would like to stop that if I am elected President.

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

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 have been victorious in some hard-fought campaigns.

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

I think it borders on the sacrilegious.

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

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

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

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.

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

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

I am not perfect.

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

I have been deeply hurt, as have many other Americans in the last few years, with the deterioration and the quality of our governmental processes.

I would not approve of [the use of Medicaid funds for abortion] at all.
