Bill Clinton

This weekend, as we celebrate the 223d anniversary of the Declaration of Independence and the birthday of our great Nation, let us reflect on what it means to be an American. Let us remember the visionaries, the patriots, and the soldiers…

Oh, I don't even know if he wants to do it. I haven't talked to him. I don't even know if he's interested. Mr. Dunham. Well, thank you very much.

Well, you know, he's established a pretty good record, and he's been right a lot more often than he's been wrong over the last several years. And as I said, the relationship we've had has been one of mutual respect and independence, and I…

Very. Mr. Dunham. ----where others are sitting on their corporate hands. I was wondering what you can do as President or what could be done through legislation to try to encourage more companies to go into these areas?

This is a safer, better, stronger country.

It gives us a chance to really do something important.

I have determined, based on a consideration of the eligibility criteria in title V, that Gabon and Mongolia should be added to the list of beneficiary developing countries under the GSP.

Yes, I think by most standards they've already been extended.

I never had any illusions that I could be President for life, although I confess that I love the job, even on the worst days.
