I can assure you that if I am successful on this occasion, the same spirit will move us, the same spirit forward.
I can't believe in 1960 the American people are going to turn the United States over to the Republican Party and Mr. Nix...
Within our own Nation we must also give real leadership to the many moral and economic problems that face a large number...
We must end - once and for all - each and every form of discrimination.
A strong defense, a strong economy, a strong society serves not only ourselves but serves freedom.
I am a candidate for the office of the Presidency, and the Presidency is a key office.
I would like to emphasize tonight that I do not believe that Mr. Nixon can claim wholly the mantle of Abraham Lincoln.
I think something must be done about it by the Government.
This Nation needs that kind of leadership in 1961 from the next President of the United States.
Our goals are not the same, nor are the means the same, nor have they been since Theodore Roosevelt.
I am proud to stand with them on this platform.
