George H.W. Bush

That's one of the things I want to -- I don't want to have two gigantic ships pass in the night because of failed communication.

I see a broad range of subjects to discuss.

Today I announced my intention to appoint Dean C. Swanson as a member of the President's National Security Telecommunications Advisory Committee.

I want to see perestroika succeed.

I made the proposal.

Routine assignments continue to hold special danger for law enforcement.

And so, it is with that hope and with great personal pride in America's police that I will now join in the groundbreaking for the National Law Enforcement Officers' Memorial.

It matters because it is the right thing to do.

For all who have lost their lives protecting the public, this memorial will stand as a tribute to their courage and their sacrifice.

Congress has had our crime package since May.

This memorial will stand as a tribute to their courage and their sacrifice.

I feel strongly that they should pay the ultimate price.

The mission will focus on those economic sectors where U.S. expertise and experience can be of greatest assistance -- agriculture, business management, industry, financial services.

Democracy really will triumph in Panama -- I'm confident of that.

The United States will continue to work with the democracies in this hemisphere and around the world to support the struggle of the Panamanian people.

Nothing has been called to my attention that makes me dissatisfied, but I don't want to take one look and say that everything is perfect.

I'm not questioning Mr. Arias. He's the host, and he's been a generous host, and I'm very glad we're here to salute Costa Rica's democracy.

He's won nothing more than a fragile status quo.

It was very ironic: there was only one man in a military uniform in this meeting of democracies.

Under this President, there will no longer ever be a feeling of neglect.

We're here to salute democracy.

I'm here to celebrate democracy.

I want to see a free and fair election in Nicaragua.

Because look at the whole world, Helen.

I believe history will show that this hemisphere's democratic resurgence helped set the stage for today's electrifying changes in the Communist world.
