Bill Clinton actually said...

"Education and welfare reform are about bringing all Americans to the starting line of the economy, then making sure all of them are ready to run the race."

"We must continue to provide our citizens with the tools to make the most of their own lives so that the American dream is within the reach of every American."

"The era of big Government is over, both because we can't go on running national deficits till the end of time and because the nature of our problems requires a different approach."

"Our number one priority must be to ensure that America has the best education in the world."
