Bill Clinton

It is not only morally the right thing to do, it is a gold mine for us if we will turn away from those who would divide us.

This country is in better shape than it was 2 1/2 years ago because we have worked hard to do what we said we would do.

The 21st century is ours if we will simply be true to our values and follow our vision.

America is safer tonight because we didn't give up our leadership.

Nothing, nothing, could give us a greater asset for the 21st century than our racial and ethnic diversity.

I think it matters that we passed the Family and Medical Leave Act so people don't lose their jobs when their children are sick.

I do not believe America would be stronger if we denied tens of thousands of young children the chance to be in the Head Start program.

Make sure, make sure, that you have taken the time to really know and care about and understand somebody who is of a different race.

We have obligations to one another.

I want to balance the Federal budget.

That's not the kind of America I want to live in.

I like to see a Democratic crowd just a little rowdy.

This is a very, very great country.

I will veto, if I have to, any attempt to mortgage your future.

This country is in much better shape than it was 2 1/2 years ago.

I hope you will think again.

The primary purpose of H.R. 2425 is to raid Medicare to pay for an excessive $245 billion tax cut that goes predominantly for the wealthy.

The Committee shall establish policies for security in and protection of Federal facilities.

That's what we both do.

I will not let you destroy Medicare, and I will veto this bill.

My job is to protect the American people if something happens that I think is very wrong.

I take full responsibility, proudly, for what we did.

Discrimination in employment on the basis of sexual orientation is currently legal in 41 states.

The Committee may consult with other parties to perform its responsibilities under this order.

I think we could reach it in 7 years.
