I have done everything I know how to do to treat all Americans equally and alike and fair.

We are not going to make it voluntary, either.

I am proud to be standing here only a few blocks from the War Memorial Plaza which honors men who sacrificed for freedom.

Today we have 20 million people living in decency and dignity off their social security checks.

Four years ago we promised to get America moving again.

And so do I.

But prosperity is worthless unless we keep the peace.

We don't hate, we don't fear, we don't doubt.

We have stood firm with the Communists in the Tonkin Gulf and at Guantanamo.

I have been spoken to by but one woman since I have been here, and should not have been by her if she could have avoided it.

No part of that policy has meant more to the good people of America than social security.

And I hope that every mother in this crowd, every citizen of America, every student here today will listen in on the television next week when I talk to you on the accomplishments of the first year of the nuclear test ban treaty.

America is moving.
