As we continue this dream for the future of America, and I do think it is important we dare to dream, if we had not dared to dream back in 1995 we would not be here today standing here talking about a balanced budget and lower taxes for the first time in 16 years and a Medicare system that has been restored. That was part of our daring to dream back in 1995. So today, as we look forward, I think part of this daring to dream as we look ahead is a strong defense system, a defense system that other nations around the world look at us and recognize us as the one world power as it relates to defense. That means we have to adequately fund the defense budget.
