On the recordSeptember 21, 1995
It's not so, but it's not too soon for you to think about it. I think you should--I would give you just a little simple advice. Number one, I think you should devote yourself to learning as much as you can in school. Study hard. Learn as much as you can in school. Develop your mind. Number two, I think you should try to make friends with and understand all different kinds of people because in a democracy like America, many different kinds of people make up our country and get to vote. And number three, when you're old enough, I think you should start to work for people you believe in in elections and learn how the election system works. So I would do those things. If you like people and you understand them, if you learn a lot in school and you develop your mind, and then you understand how the political system works, you might grow up to be President. Mr. King. Caller from Scotland, hello. Native Americans [A participant asked what the U.S. Government was doing to redress the grievances of Native Americans.] Mr. King. Have we redressed that grievance?
