On the recordFebruary 26, 1998
And I would propose that the same kind of focus and enthusiasm and energy that we have put behind the problem in 1995 of addressing this deficit and addressing the debt, we have come a long way and we got a long way to go, but we are on the right road, is the same kind of energy, enthusiasm and commitment that we need to put behind education. In 1993, the early 1990's, the deficit was identified and the debt was identified as critical long-term problems that if we did not address them we were going to give our children an America that was not going to be as good as the one that we got from our parents.
