On the recordMay 9, 1996
Absolutely. Eloquent rhetoric. We all sat on this floor and watched the master politician. I hate being called a politician. I know you all hate it, too. Because politicians tell people what they want to hear. I know you three and I know a lot of people who sit in these chairs every day do not tell people what they want to hear, they tell people what they believe and what they think is best for the future of the country. As I have said earlier, that distinguishes politicians from leaders. Leaders lead. Politicians hire pollsters to tell them what they think the American people want to hear.
