On the recordNovember 8, 1997
Wait, wait, wait. I would have been disappointed if you hadn't been here tonight. I'm kind of used to this. People with AIDS are dying. But since I've become President, we're spending 10 times as much per fatality on people with AIDS as people with breast cancer or prostate cancer. And the drugs are being approved more quickly. And a lot of people are living normal lives. We just have to keep working on it. I thank you, but this, too, is part of what makes America great. We all have our say, and nobody has to be afraid when he or she screams at the President. [Laughter] That's a good thing. That's a good thing. And at a time when so many people feel their voices will never be heard, that's a good thing. Audience member. [Inaudible] Audience members. Boo-o-o!
