I will be glad to cast, because I think it will reflect what we want for America--peace, trust, and prosperity.

I am honored that I am the first President since Dwight D. Eisenhower who can seek election and say to the American people, our great country is at peace.
I am proud of the fact that we have given additional support to our national defense program.
I pledge to you that we are going to keep the Army, the Navy, the Air Force, and Marines number one during the next 4 years.
I am the first President seeking election since Dwight D. Eisenhower who can say America is at peace.
I am proud to say that there's not a single young American fighting or dying on any foreign soil today.
I ask you on November 2, to not only confirm me with your prayers but to confirm me with your ballots.
I believe the best way to stimulate our economy, to provide jobs for everybody who wants a job, is to give tax reductions to the individual.
No person among our senior citizens should go broke just to get well.
I stand on your side for limited government, for fiscal responsibility, for rising prosperity, for lower taxes, for military strength, and for peace in the world.
I am the first President to seek election since Dwight D. Eisenhower who can go to the American people and say America is at peace.
Not a single young American is fighting and [or] dying on any foreign soil tonight.
I'm not satisfied. I won't be satisfied until every American who wants a job will have a job.
I won't be satisfied until we win the battle against inflation 100 percent, period.
The best tax reform that I know is tax reduction for the middle-income taxpayers.
