(Acknowledgments)
Thank you, Josh Smith, for that introduction, and thank you
all for inviting me here today.
I want to talk a bit about the concerns we all share --
about America's future -- about the choice we face in shaping
that future.
The great task before us is clear: with the end of the Cold
War, America must win the new global economic competition. We
must win the peace -- for only then will we keep the promise of
opportunity that is the birthright of every American.
Governor Clinton and I offer very different choices, based
on very different philosophies, borne of different experience.
As a man who has spent all his life in government, my
opponent believes government -- a Washington elite of policy
professors and planners -- should take the lead in shaping the
economy, "investing" your money more wisely than you can.
Well, that's not the way I see it. Like so many of you,
I've spent much of my life in business -- built one from the
ground up // met a payroll // created jobs.
I happen to think that's a pretty good qualification for
being President of the United States. //
2
I learned what makes an economy grow. It's not government
planners -- it's not the people who take your taxes and spend
them for you.
You make an economy grow -- ordinary men and women with the
extraordinary dreams -- who have the grit to make those dreams
real.
That understanding is at the heart of my Agenda for American
Renewal. I want to unleash the energy and brainpower of our
workers and entrepreneurs.
I want to lower the cost of capital so that wages rise and
unemployment lines shrink. That's why I'm fighting for a cut in
the tax on capital gains.
I want you to make your business decisions without some
bureaucrat from Washington second-guessing your every move.
That's why I've ordered an end to the federal regulations that
turn red tape into pink slips.
I want to make health care more accessible and affordable
for every one. That's why I'm fighting for health care reform -
- without burdening small businesses with expensive new mandates
and payroll taxes.
And I want to reward the risk-takers who bring capital and
jobs to our inner cities. That's why I'm fighting for enterprise
zones.
On issue after issue, you see the same sharp difference
between my opponent and me. He wants a government that taxes
more, spends more, and regulates more. I want a government that
3
taxes less, spends less, and regulates less -- that frees up the
genius of American enterprise and initiative.
Let me be clear. Government must never shirk its very real
responsibilities. The fine men and women who you are honoring
today -- men and women who I've been proud to have beside me
these past three years -- are testament to the good work
government can do.
Together we believe that it is government's role to create
opportunity -- not stifle it. To clear the path for individual
accomplishment -- not to block it. To facilitate, not to
dictate.
And together we believe that there is no room in our country
for discrimination of any kind. As long as I am President I will
do everything in my power to drive bigotry and anti-Semitism and
racism from our great land.
I think you know I have strong feelings about this -- I
always have. I founded the first UNCF chapter on my college
campus. I fought for fair housing. I was proud to sign a
historic civil rights bill. And as President I've set out to
appoint officials on the content of their character and their
competence -- and to those officials who are here today, I salute
you. You're doing a terrific job.
With their help -- and with yours -- we will create economic
opportunity for every American -- we will compete in the new
world that lies before us -- we will win the peace.

genius of American enterprise and initiative.
Let me be clear. Government must never shirk its very real
responsibilities. The fine men and women who you are honoring
today -- men and women who I've been proud to have beside me

these past three years -- are testament to the good work
government can do.
Together we believe that it is government's role to create
opportunity -- not stifle it. To clear the path for individual
accomplishment -- not to block it. To facilitate, not to
dictate.
And together we believe that there is no room in our country
for discrimination of any kind. As long as I am President I will
do everything in my power to drive bigotry and anti-Semitism and
racism from our great land.
I think you know I have strong feelings about this --
I
always have. I founded the first UNCF chapter on my college
campus. I fought for fair housing. I was proud to sign a
historic civil rights bill. And as President I've set out to
appoint officials on the content of their character and their
competence -- and to those officials who are here today, I salute
you. You're doing a terrific job.
With their help -- and with yours -- we will create economic
opportunity for every American -- we will compete in the new
world that lies before us -- we will win the peace.

(Acknowledgments)
Thank you, Josh Smith, for that introduction, and thank you
all for inviting me here today.
I want to talk a bit about the concerns we all share Papout about
America's future -- about the choice we face in shaping that
future.
The great task before us is clear: with the end of the Cold
War, America must win the new global economic competition. We
must win the peace -- for only then will we keep the promise of
opportunity that is the birthright of every American.
Governor Clinton and I offer very different choices, based
on very different philosophies, borne of different experience.

opponent believes government -- a Washington elite of policy
professors and planners -- should take the lead in shaping the
economy, "investing" your money more wisely than you can.

It's not government
planners -- it's not the people who take your taxes and spend
them for you.
You make an economy grow -- ordinary men and women with the
extraordinary dreams -- who have the grit to make those dreams
real.
That understanding is at the heart of my Agenda for American
Renewal. I want to unleash the energy and brainpower of our
workers and entrepreneurs.
I want to lower the cost of capital SO that wages rise and
unemployment lines shrink. That's why I'm fighting for a cut in
the tax on capital gains.
I want you to make your business decisions without some
bureaucrat from Washington second-guessing your every move.
That's why I've ordered an end to the federal regulations that
turn red tape into pink slips.
I want to make health care more accessible and affordable
for every one. That's why I'm fighting for health care reform --
without burdening small businesses with expensive new mandates
and payroll taxes.
And I want to reward the risk-takers who bring capital and
jobs to our inner cities. That's why I'm fighting for enterprise
zones.
On issue after issue, you see the same sharp difference
between my opponent and me. He wants a government that taxes
more, spends more, and regulates more. I want a government that
taxes less, spends less, and regulates less -- that frees up the
genius of American enterprise and initiative.
Let me be clear. Government must never shirk its very real
responsibilities. The fine men and women who you are honoring
today -- men and women who I've been proud to have beside me
these past three years -- are testament to the good work
