Gerald Ford actually said...

"I need your help; I need your vote."

"I promise you, I pledge you, that I will not let you down."

"I am proud to stand before you and say that I am the first President since Dwight D. Eisenhower who can go to the American people to seek their support and say America is at peace."

"I stand for lower taxes, a balanced budget, lower Federal spending, beating inflation, and peace and liberty for the United States of America."
