Gerald Ford

I have, because of my strong personal dedication to American schools, urged that Federal aid to education actually be increased.

I love you, and we're going to win.

Nothing pleases me more than we can say, and say with honesty: There's not a single young American fighting or dying on any foreign battlefield tonight.

The local control that you represent is not only an American tradition, it makes awfully good sense.

I'm here to urge all of you to elect John Heinz your next United States Senator.

My record is one of promise-progress, not platitudes; performance, not promises.

It is great to be in sunny New Jersey.

We have campaigned the length and the breadth of this country, and the net result is we have the momentum going.

I have no fear for the future of America.

The American people have been disillusioned.

I stand on your side for limited government, for fiscal responsibility, for rising prosperity, for lower taxes, for military strength that will keep the peace in the world.

You serve without pay, but you carry tremendous responsibilities for the betterment of America.

We want a job for every American who wants to work.

That is what we really want--the money to go to your school districts directly with a minimum of red tape as far as Washington, D.C., is concerned.

When the people go to those polls on November 2, they are going to say, 'Jerry Ford, you did a good job.'

More Americans were on the job in 1976 than ever before in the history of the United States.

America, I think we can say, with full confidence, has had its faith restored in the White House.

I think the people of New York or elsewhere ought to have a chance to vote for him if they feel it is the right decision.

We've done quite well, but we're going to do better.

I pledge my cooperation and my continuing effort on behalf of American education.

I held the line on Government spending with 66 vetoes and saved you, the hard-pressed taxpayers of this country, about $9 billion-plus.

America was in very deep trouble.

I will stay on guard against such unwarranted Federal intrusion into community affairs.

Let me tell you what we're trying to do.

We laid it on the line.
