I look at outer space, I look at Africa, I look at Latin America, and in all of the new problems which disturbed our lives in the fifties, this administration has not responded, it has not taken the initiative.

I plan to appear at the fifth debate prepared to answer any questions which the panel may wish to ask me.

I want to talk with you this evening not about the missile gap... but the 'Nixon gap,' the difference between Mr. Nixon's campaign promises and his actual record.

Every problem that faces us requires new solutions, because the problems are new.

I think a nation that holds itself out as the champion of democracy has an obligation to do better by all Americans.

This administration failed to recognize the changing nature of our times and we now see the Soviet first on the moon.

Mr. Nixon's message is another indication of the fact that he would rather debate with mimeograph machines and telegrams than face to face.

But the Bible tells us to judge a tree by its fruits. For 'what is past is prologue'...

The kind of society we build here, the kind of country we develop here, that is the test of our ability to lead around the world.

We are going to have to do much better.
