Sunday. I try to take Sunday off, but I don't always make it. But I try to work half a day on Saturday, take Sunday off, but Monday through Friday I work until pretty late at night. Mr. Jennings. I think some of us know that.

You bet, a lot of them. But you're right, we owe you a better deal than you're getting, and I'm trying to give it to you. But you all are going to have to do your part, too. President's Schedule Mr. Jennings. Now, there are a lot of…
At Dunbar. Are you a student at Dunbar? Good, I recognize the film. Mr. Jennings. All right, so let's come out of the film now. All right Tanya, your turn. Urban Youth
So the answer is, even though it's tougher than it has been for college graduates, you still have a much better chance if you stay in school to have higher incomes and to have a job. Mr. Jennings. Let's go over to the other side, here…
Every day of the year, just about. I especially love these. I bet I've had 20 of these ties; they're great. Mr. Jennings. We have a lot of questions for you this morning, Mr. President, so we're going to go away for just one second, and…
This tie was designed by a 13-year-old named Kelly. It's called ``Save the Children,'' and it's part of a series of ties designed by children for the Save the Children Foundation. It's a group that works on the problems of children in poor…
I have. Every President but George Washington has lived here, and so it's really the story of America. And it's a great honor to live here. So I like to know the history of it, and I like to know the things that happened to the people who…
I'm not trying to ratchet up the tensions, I'm just trying to work through this in a very deliberate but very firm and disciplined way, and that's what we'll continue to do.
I hereby determine that it is important to the security interests of the United States to furnish $6.923 million in funds made available under chapter 6 of part II of the Act for fiscal year 1994 to furnish assistance for sanctions…
Of course, they can—that really is a decision that's up to the North Koreans as much as anything else.
Ladies and gentlemen, today we have witnessed an act of great statesmanship. Now we must hope that the courage embodied by these agreements will inspire further acts of reason, reconstruction and progress to implement them, to make them…
This issue should be decided by informed citizens, not by special interests spending millions of dollars to prevent progress.
