Bill Clinton

Today I want to talk to you about our Nation's duty to ensure that all America's seniors can enjoy their golden years as healthy as modern medicine will allow.

I cannot thank you enough for the gift that you have given to the United States, which is even bigger than this great trophy.

We actually now have some experience with the Patients' Bill of Rights.

I think there is something that the economists would call, in purely economic terms, imperfect knowledge.

The important thing in your sports analogy is that as we have broadened the pool of talent, we've had more teams.

This is not a zero-sum game.

This is about life and the quality of life and the fundamental decency of our society.

That in all those places where our prosperity has not reached, there are good people, smart people, people with dreams, and good opportunities for American business.

We should err on the side of humanity.

This is a real issue, as you know.

For the first time since Dr. King was killed, we have more evidence than we have ever had that, when children do well, we are all strengthened.

I've often said, things happen to people that derail their lives, and then they have to work hard to get them back on track.

We have to write new stories for these places, and it takes a commitment to money capital and to human capital.

All our kids need a chance to live their dreams, and the American dream needs for all Americans to be blessed by the opportunity that has given so much to us.

I want every American businessperson, every American investor to see that there are enormous opportunities out there today in the areas that have been left behind by our economic recovery.

Nobody wanted charity, nobody wanted a handout. What they wanted was a hand up.

We can build one America where nobody is left behind when we cross that bridge into a new century, and if we do, we'll all be better off.
