the President may have inherent powers under Article II that even a statute cannot bury.

To have George McGovern come out in support of secret ballot elections and also even some other top liberal leaders in our country, I think that's bad enough.

It has helped bring down costs on an average of $10 billion a year every year since 1984.

I have maintained my strong support of the generic drug industry over the years.
