We should all follow the rule of law, and I'm positive the vice president will do that and I think George Bush will do that, ... This Week.
We need a leader who can defeat George Bush in November in the general election, and we need a leader who we all know can walk into that Oval Office tomorrow afternoon and be a great president of the United States. That leader is John Kerry, and I'm proud to endorse him to be the president of the United States of America.

I voted for the Reagan tax cut (in 1981). It was a mistake, ... We have to learn from history. It was a worthy experiment, but it was a mistake and ... we don't want to make it again.
seems high to me, because once you get above the levels where the president was in his budget, you really are in the area where you're starting to raise premiums.
We must stop this deadly disease at our borders at all cost. It's the government's highest responsibility to keep Americans safe. That includes the food at our grocery stores,
