Politics

I am happy and pleased to honor that request.

I promise you that we are not going to allow them to go on unchecked.

The House is considering that bill.

We always just love to come to the great State of Illinois.

I believe the answer to that problem is a simple one and that Congress has given it in the law itself.

You may not announce all you plan to do.

Even before I came to Washington as a young man, I noticed how many men said what had to be done could not be done.

The opportunity is here.

I want to reassure you that I am meeting with these bankers not because we have any grave problems, but because we do have a very great program.

We simply cannot allow that to happen.

What we really do is count upon you.

But I also want to challenge you.

I do not see Medicare as a problem.

So let us begin today.

The time for action has come.

I came here tonight to tell you that in the time allotted me, with whatever energy and ability I have, I do not intend for history to repeat itself.

I believe there are many more areas of agreement for us than there are disagreement.

We are very hopeful that the Congress will agree with us on the wisdom of our proposals and in due time will act upon them.
