Richard Nixon

And Pat Nixon has done more for that than anybody that I know in these last few years.

Any program...should be one that would give to every one of our citizens who wants health insurance an opportunity to get it.

We can have the best jobs and the best social security; we can have the finest housing...and, you know, it isn't going to make any difference if we aren't around to enjoy them.

Now, it would be presumptuous for me to say anything about who ought to be the next President.

We all want better health care for our older citizens.

It isn't enough reason to vote for any man because he wears the label that you wear.

I believe Senator Kennedy is going to take time to read some of his other platform promises.

There has been some talk around the country that Senator Kennedy really does not agree with a number of his platform pledges.

And consequently, I'm going to violate her rule and admonition and say a word about her if I might on this occasion.

Thank you very much for giving me the opportunity to be the only man to speak on this women's program.

I saw newspaper reports from Korea that were translated afterward.

I will say this, whatever people may think of me, Pat would make a wonderful First Lady.

We need to move forward on all fronts.

And I want him to state his views in exactly the same way in the North, the East, the South, and the West, so everyone in every part of America will clearly understand his position.

We must get beneath the label. We must get at what the men stand for.

We don't want a massive Federal program to come in to weaken the States.

The women have a feeling in their hearts for all the unfortunates not only in this country but in other countries and the very fact that they get this across; that they let the people of these countries know that we help them, not just…

A President can only help, because these ideals - love of country, appreciation of what we stand for - this comes from the homes, from the churches, from the schools of America.

As you well see, she ought to be running for President rather than I.

Vote for America, and America comes before any party.

This is a hard campaign. There are still 5 weeks to go, but we intend to win it and when the campaign is won, I am sure that a maximum part of the credit will go to the women on this stage, including Pat Nixon.

I say to you, whether you are Republicans or Democrats, that when we elect a President of the United States it isn't the party but America that comes first - and that's what the Americans are going to vote for this year.

And I say to you that on that issue we are proud of our record.

The test of whether government is good for you is not how much is done by Washington. It's how much the whole American people are allowed to do for themselves, and that is what has happened under our leadership.

It isn't Jack's money they're going to spend, but yours.
