Bill Clinton actually said...

I thank you, Lawton, for teaching us that public service is not a position, it's a mission; that our job is not to posture, but to produce.

Every one of us who knew Lawton Chiles feels blessed.

He saw long before the rest of us the promise in every child and the need to give every child decent health care and a world-class education...

I want Americans to be able to visualize the kind of continuing lifelong learning opportunities that you have that I want for all Americans.
