Richard Nixon

If you want to get jobs in this State, if you want to draw industry in this State, if you want to quit driving it out, elect a real State government rather than the kind you've been having for the past few years.

I am proud to have been introduced by Al Bentley because I think he will make a splendid Senator not, only for Michigan, but for the whole United States and the free world - and I urge his election as I appear here with him in Muskegon…

I think Americans want progress without inflation, and that's what we will bring.

I think I know how we can handle them.

It's a serious matter when the people living on pensions and social security have their Government break faith with them.

I have heard the President of the United States make decisions.

We cleaned up the mess.

My friends, we will win, and we will win provided we don't get a second-class psychology in the United States about what we believe in this country and what we stand for.

It's time the people began to speak up for America and quit running this country down here at home and to the people abroad as well.

This is the road to peace. The other is the road to war.

Thank you very much, Jerry Ford

We're not a second-rate country.

I got it yesterday in Ohio riding in the rain, but, believe me, there is no better cure for a candidate's cold than to see a crowd like this in Kalamazoo.

I say that we are the ones who are thinking of the people and our opponents are not thinking of the people, and let the record be straight on that point.

Certainly, as Jerry Ford and your county chairman have indicated, this is a crowd that will never be exceeded in this campaign or any campaign for that matter.

I'll not owe my election to any boss, whether that boss may be in labor or whether he's in management or whether he's in any other kind of institution in this country.

We have to move ahead in atomic energy, particularly in its peaceful uses.

Have you ever seen a team in a game that won when it thought it was a second-rater?

My friend, Congressman Johansen, and my friends here in Kalamazoo, Mich., I want to apologize first of all, as you notice, my voice is a little hoarse.

So, this is my message to you today.

But certainly having all of the young people here out of school and also all of you of voting age is an opportunity which I, as a candidate, have welcomed, and it's one that I do not want to miss on this occasion.

I believe that the American people recognize that when we stand for sound policies in Lansing, for sound policies in Washington, this proves we are the ones who care for the people.

Economically, we're twice as productive as the Soviet Union, and we're going to stay that way if we remain true to our principles.

I am particularly privileged to have the opportunity to speak here at Ann Arbor again.

I am proud that on the great issue of civil rights that my colleague and I are proud to stand together and we speak with one voice and not two voices, as do our opponents.
