And you know who's going to pay it. He says, ``I'm going to sock the rich.'' That won't get him any money at all. What he's going to do is sock it to the cab driver and the nurse and the beautician and the housewife. I will protect against…
Thank you, Dow Williams. And thank you, Gainesville. What a fantastic rally. I am grateful to you, and it makes me think we are going to win this election. Let me just say how pleased I am to be accompanied on this trip by two of America's…
Four more! That's what we need to get this job done. Audience members. Four more years! Four more years! Four more years!

Only because I've got a serious thing I want to say. Mr. Nigut. Go ahead. We're calling on you because the President mentions baseball. You've got your Braves T-shirt on. You get special treatment here today.
Well, I would only refer you to the fact that money from the Federal Government for health care has increased dramatically. The problem you have is you don't have unlimited resources. Take AIDS funding on research, for example. We've…
Let me throw in another selling point. [Laughter] Four years ago you were a college freshman. Did you ever worry about nuclear war back then? Did you? You worry less about it now. But most kids that vintage, 4 years ago, would share the…
That's a big difference we've got on some of this philosophy. Mr. Nigut. Thank you, sir. The economy everyone identifies as a crucial issue. Does someone in the group want to ask an economic question of the President right now? Who has…
