Governor Clinton wants to win by saying we are a nation in decline. Somewhere, he puts it this way, somewhere less than Germany and a little more than Sri Lanka. Let me tell you something, we have problems. We have big, tough economic problems, and people are hurting. But we are the United States, the most respected nation on the face of the Earth. And I will not apologize for this country. I am proud that I served my country in uniform. I am proud to be serving as President. And I came here to say this: I need your support because I want to finish the job. And may God bless America. May God bless our great country. Thank you all very much. Note: The President spoke at 2:07 p.m. at Trenton- Robbinsville Airport. In his remarks, he referred to Joseph Cicippio, former American hostage held in Lebanon.
