Provost/Gershowitz Presidential Remarks Kentucky Harvest Anniversary Louisville, KY Sunday, September 6, 1992 Draft Thank you Stan (Curtis) Barbara and I are in the middle of a busy weekend. Four states, seven stops -- in just three days. But we couldn't resist your invitation -- to stop by and see the Redbirds. // As you know, we have a grueling campaign ahead -- full of long days and long hours. In fact, the only one with a tougher schedule this fall -- is Howard Schnellenberger and the U of L Cardinals. // I don't want to spoil this beautiful day with talk of politics. So let me just say that the American people will have two visions before them this fall. One sees a solution to every problem in government -- and believes every path leads to Washington D.C. I offer a different vision. A belief that America's heart beats loudest in places like Lubbock, Lincoln -- and right here in Louisville. // America faces big challenges in the new economic age -- as we try to build a nation strong and secure. 2 Our goal is simple and straightforward: In the 21st Century, America must not only be a military superpower, but an economic superpower -- an export superpower. // And on this Labor Day weekend, let me tell you why I know America will win: Because the American worker can out-think, out-compete and out-produce any worker in the world -- anytime, anyplace, anywhere. // Yes, Government has a role in solving these challenges. But ultimately -- the genius of America is not tucked away in some marble building along the Potomac -- it lies in the fertile minds and compassionate hearts of people like you -- you and your neighbors. // I came here today to salute those who keep the bright light of America alive -- the volunteers of Kentucky Harvest. // Some see hunger in America and ask -- "why?" You see hungry people and say -- "why not feed them?" For all of you who spend your Saturday mornings lugging chicken out of the local restaurant -- or driving over to the nearest food bank -- you are proving that America is -- truly -- a nation of neighbors -- a nation filled with Points of Light. I'm especially glad that all the food donated today -- will go to the survivors of Hurricane Andrew. The relief process continues in Florida and Louisiana. Homes may be destroyed, but believe me -- the American spirit is alive and kicking. 3 This Wednesday, the Red Cross received the most donations in one day -- in their history. And I speak for all who stood in Andrew's path -- when I say thanks to all Americans -- for this tremendous outpouring of support and generosity. // I tried to convince Barbara to pull her old glove out of the closet, but she insisted that I throw out the first pitch instead. My only advice goes to those sitting behind the backstop. Keep your hands in front of your face! Thank you for inviting us. Happy Birthday Kentucky Harvest. May God Bless the most generous nation on earth -- the United States of America. # # # Document No. 348483ss WHITE HOUSE STAFFING MEMORANDUM DATE: 9/4/92 ACTION/CONCURRENCE/COMMENT DUE BY: PRESIDENTIAL REMARKS: KENTUCKY HARVEST AT RED BIRD STADIUM SUBJECT: LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY - SUNDAY, 9/6 ACTION FYI ACTION FYI VICE PRESIDENT MCBRIDE BAKER MOORE SCOWCROFT MULLINS DARMAN PETERSMEYER BATES PORTER BRADY PROVOST BROMLEY ROSS CALIO SMITH DEMAREST TUTWILER FITZWATER ZOELLICK GRAY KAUFMAN HOLIDAY MCGROARTY HORNER REMARKS: The attached has been forwarded to the President.
