So through all these years I have sought, asked, and been given the opportunity to make some effort in the field of fighting a war on poverty, illiteracy, ignorance, disease, and for conserving our resources, beautifying our lands.

This is an area of the country that I think is definitely moving forward and Denver is a city that is on the move.

Our safest guide to what we do abroad is always take a good look at what we are doing at home.

It will require more than understanding and more than generosity to build that world of health and hope.

To negotiate is never to admit failure.

In that we are all students, we are all still learning.

I am very happy to be here.

I believe they can.

We know they are fighting for a free Asia.

But we do have better answers than they have any other place in the world.

Lady Bird and I are very grateful to all of you good people of Colorado and the Rocky Mountain region, particularly of Denver, for coming out here to greet us today.

I am not timid about America's future.

Lady Bird told me--said, 'I am going to have the surprise of your life for your birthday tomorrow.'

When Lady Bird leaves town and I have no place to go, and I feel a little lonely–and one of my daughters gets married and the other one is in Hollywood--I call up Mike or Mary Ellen and say, 'Is it all right if I come on out for supper?'

Until then, I ask on behalf of them, for all of them, all of our men in Vietnam, I ask you to give them all you can give them.

Our foreign policy, in America, like our domestic policy, is all those things--all those things from education, to jobs, to health, to justice, to equality for all people.

Nor, may I say, do we have a different face for Moscow, Peking, or Hanoi.

It is good, though, to be back in Idaho and Pocatello.
