Politics

I cannot responsibly approve H.R. 15657.

I want you to know that as we complete our motorcade of the State of Ohio that it is a very great privilege for us to be here in Warren again.

They say that we have become a sick society, a corrupt society.

Let's make sure that the United States is never number two in the world so that the United States can continue to lead the world to peace.

We have stood up for the men of law and order, and we are going to for the next 4 years.

We now can look forward with confidence to winning the kind of peace in Vietnam that all Americans want, and that is the kind of a peace Bob Griffin has worked for and supported—peace with honor and not peace with surrender.

The new American majority knows that government ought to spring from the people.

As you know, I followed their advice.

The third point I wish to make is this: As we move into a period of peace in the years ahead, I want it to be, and all of you want it to be, a period of progress.

We are also moving forward in mine safety.

And I will say to you simply, what I want for the next 4 years is that the next 4 years will be the best 4 years in this Nation's history.

We think we can achieve that goal. We ask for the opportunity to continue the policies that have come so far in achieving it already.

Power in our hands means power for peace.

But what is really important is you, the party workers, the people who come from the ranks of labor, the people who come, who participate in politics, from any other group, but who get behind the candidate.

As President, however, I must continually look at the total impact of Congressional action.

The campaigning that I can do this year is somewhat limited, due to the rather extraordinary requirements of the office of the Presidency at this time.

There is nothing more lonely in a Presidential campaign than to be running for any other office.

In government, when a central authority in Washington tells people across the country how they should conduct their lives, that, too, is paternalism.
