Education Accountability Measures That Build on What Works. In his State of the Union Address, President Clinton announced a package of accountability measures designed to hold students, teachers, and schools to high standards, and to ensure that school districts and states provide students with a high quality education. In his radio address, the President again will call for ending social promotion; making sure teachers are qualified; getting states to turn around low-performing schools; providing parents with school report cards; and instituting effective discipline policies as requirements of receiving funds under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act. The President applauded efforts that states and school districts are making, under the leadership of committed governors, in the states of North Carolina, Michigan, Delaware, Pennsylvania, and California to implement these common-sense principles. In those states and others, these accountability measures are producing results. President Clinton wants to build on those efforts and ensure that all children reap the rewards of strengthened accountability. Strengthened Investments in Education for the 21st Century. The President's effort to support high academic standards for all children includes an unprecedented commitment of national resources to help states and local districts improve education. Students and teachers cannot reach for excellence in outdated, falling down, overcrowded classrooms. President Clinton!,s balanced budget calls for continued strengthened investments in education: hire 100,000 teachers over seven years so as to reduce class size in grades 1-3 to a nationwide average of 18 students; build, repair, or modernize up to 6,000 schools through $25 billion in bonds; triple funding to expand after-school activities and provide intensive help to students to meet high standards; raise the quality of teaching; improve literacy; enhance technology in the schools; recruit outstanding teachers to underserved high-poverty rural areas and inner cities; and provide new pathways to college for disadvantaged students. The FY 2000 budget includes $1.4 billion to hire 38,000 new teachers by the end of the second year of the program. The President challenged Congress to fund his education agenda and help states and districts provide all children with a first-class education in the 21st century. Release of State-By-State Class Size and School Modernization Funding. Today, the Education Department released data that shows how much each state would receive under President Clinton!,s FY 2000 budget request to reduce class size and modernize schools. For example, in FY 2000, California would receive funds to support 4,386 new teachers and federal tax credits to pay the interest on $3 billion of school modernization bonds; Illinois would receive funds to support a total of 1,522 new teachers and federal tax credits to pay the interest on $1.1 billion of school modernization bonds; and Florida would receive funds to support 1,749 new teachers and federal tax credits to pay the interest on $1.3 billion of school modernization bonds. ### RECORD TYPE: PRESIDENTIAL (ALL-IN-1 MAIL) CREATOR: Margaret M.

HENRY O. FLIPPER The Roosevelt Room 6:33 P.M. EST THE PRESIDENT: First of all, I'd like to welcome this distinguished assemblage here -- Dr. King and the members of the Flipper family, and your friends; Secretary West, Congressman Clyburn, General Powell, Deputy Secretary Hamry, Under Secretary de Leon, General Ross and General Reimer, Secretary Caldera. I understand we're joined by Clarence Davenport, the 6th African American graduate of West Point; other distinguished West Point graduates who are here. Welcome to all of you. There's one person who could not be here today -- Deputy Attorney General Eric Holder, I'm glad to see you -- the one person who could not be here today I want to acknowledge, and that is Senator Max Cleland from Georgia, who has done a lot to make this day possible. We thank him in his absence. I welcome you all to an event that is 117 years overdue. Here in America's House of liberty, we celebrate ideas like freedom, equality, our indivisibility as one people. Great leaders lived here -- people like Mr. Jefferson, Mr. Lincoln, the Roosevelts, after whom this room is named. All of them deepened the meaning of those words while they lived here. But we must be candid and say that the special quality of American freedom is not always extended to all Americans. A word like "freedom," to be more than a slogan, requires us to acknowledge that our "more perfect union" was created by imperfect human beings, people who did not always define freedom in the ways that we would, and in ways that they knew they should. For this word to live for ourselves and our children, we must recognize it represents a difficult goal that must be struggled with every day in order to be realized. Today's ceremony is about a moment in 1882, when our government did not do all it could do to protect an individual American's freedom. It is about a moment in 1999 when we correct the error and resolve to do even better in the future. The man we honor today was an extraordinary American. Henry Flipper did all his country asked him to do. Though born a slave in Georgia, he was proud to serve America: the first African American graduate of West Point; the first African American commissioned officer in the regular United States Army. He showed brilliant promise and joined the 10th Cavalry. While stationed at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, he perfected a drainage system that eliminated the stagnant water, and malaria, plaguing the fort. Still known as "Flipper's Ditch," it became a national landmark in 1977. He distinguished himself in combat on the frontier, and then was transferred to run a commissary at Fort Davis in Texas. In 1881, Lt. Flipper was accused by his commanding officer of improperly accounting for the funds entrusted to him. A later Army review suggested he had been singled out for his race, but at the time there wasn't much justice available for a young African American soldier. In December, a court -martial acquitted him of embezzlement, but convicted him of conduct unbecoming an officer. President Chester A. Arthur declined to overturn the sentence, and in June of 1882, Lt. Flipper was dishonorably discharged. His life continued. He became a civil and mining engineer out West. He worked in many capacities for the government, as special agent for the Department of Justice; as an expert on Mexico for the Senate Foreign Relations Committee; as a special assistant to the Secretary of the Interior. He died in 1940, at the age of 84. But even after his death, this stain of dishonor remained. One hundred and seventeen years have now elapsed since his discharge. That's a long time, even more than the span of his long life. More than half the history of the White House, indeed, of the United States itself. And too long to let an injustice lie uncorrected. The army exonerated him in 1976, changed his discharge to honorable and reburied him with full honors. But one thing remained to be done, and now it will be. With great pleasure and humility, I now offer a full pardon to Lt. Henry Ossian Flipper of the United States Army. This good man now has completely recovered his good name. It has been a trying thing for the family to fight this long battle, to confront delays and bureaucratic indifference, but this is a day of affirmation. It teaches us that, although the wheels of justice turn slowly at times, still they turn. It teaches that time can heal old wounds and redemption comes to those who persist in a righteous cause. Most of all, it teaches us -- Lt. Flipper's family teaches us -- that we must never give up the fight to make our country live up to its highest ideals. Outside of this room Henry Flipper is not known to most Americans. All the more reason to remember him today. His remarkable life story is important to us, terribly important, as we continue to work -- on the edge of a new century and a new millennium -- on deepening the meaning of freedom at home, and working to expand democracy and freedom around the world, to give new life to the great experiment begun in 1776. This is work Henry Flipper would have been proud of. Each of you who worked so hard for this day is a living chapter in the story of Lt. Flipper. I thank you for your devotion, your courage, your persistence, your unshakable commitment. I thank you for believing, and proving, that challenges never disappear, but in the long run, freedom comes to those who persevere. Thank you very, very much. (Applause.) END 6:44 P.M.

D.C. 9:07 P.M. EST THE PRESIDENT: I have been friends with Chairman Bond a long time. We have had many interesting conversations -- not all of them have been that laudatory. But, Julian, I have that on film now, and I'm going to play it -- (laughter) -- whenever I need a little boost in life, I'm just going to turn that film on. (Laughter.) Thank you. I want to say publicly something I said to Julian Bond privately when he agreed to become the Chair of the NAACP -- I called him and I thanked him. And I thank him again. And I thank all of you for what you are doing. (Applause.) When Kweisi Mfume agreed to become President of the NAACP and leave the Congress, I wept. (Laughter.) But he told me -- he said, now, don't worry. He said, I'll have a good replacement in Congress -- and he did -- and I need to do this. It's the right thing for my country and for my people. And he, too, has served well. And I'm very proud of our friendship and of the service. (Applause.) I thank all of you who are helping. When Suzanne Dubose was up here talking about scientists slowing down the speed of light and the rest of us speeding up the speed of justice, I wish I had thought of that myself. (Laughter.) That line won't rest, it will be used again and again. (Laughter.) I want to thank Bell Atlantic and all the other companies who are standing with the NAACP. I am delighted to see Bishop Graves and the other officers here. (Applause.) And, Bishop, thank you for your friendship. (Applause.) Most of the people with our administration have been introduced, but I want to thank Secretary and Mrs. West, and Secretary Slater, and Bill Lann Lee for being here, and Judy Winston, who did such a good job with our initiative on race. I want to acknowledge, also, the presence in the audience of Mary Beth Cahill, our new Special Assistant to the President for Public Liaison. (Applause.) And I want to recognize Ben Johnson -- many of you know he is the first Director of the White House office on our Initiative for One America, and I thank him for doing that. (Applause.) Since Bell is so well-recognized, there's one other former member of the White House staff here, Eric Eaves (phonetic), who went on for the money and the fame of Bell. I want to thank him. (Applause.) Ladies and gentlemen, I came here tonight for two purposes. One is to say a simple thank you. Thank you for what you've done for America, and thank you for being my friends. I am grateful. I am very grateful. (Applause.) The second is to say that -- as Suzanne said so eloquently -- we're in a lot better shape than we used to be, but nowhere near where we ought to be. And what we have to do as a people, as a whole country -- but especially you, because you know -- you know things about where we are and where we need to go that not every American does, because of the life you've lived and the things you've seen and the work you do. You know that no great nation, and certainly not this one, can afford to say, well, we're a lot better off than we used to be, so let's take a vacation from progress. Let's take a vacation from our struggle for liberty and equality. Let's take a vacation from our attempt to spread the reach of prosperity and freedom to Africa, to the Caribbean, to our friends in the Americas. You know that this is not a time to take a break, it is a time to thank God for our prosperity and our opportunities and make the best use of them. The sun is shining and we need to make hay. We need to work while the sun is shining. (Applause.) And to do what I would like to do in these last two years of my presidency, just like the last six, we need the help of every one of your 2,200 branches. We need to forge new coalitions across the lines of race and class and religion. We need to close America's remaining opportunity gaps. A lot of you have lived in homes when you were younger and not so well off and prosperous as you are now (laughter) -- where there were literally gaps in the walls or the windows, and you could feel the wind blowing. Well, there are a lot of people still getting blown by those kinds of winds and the opportunity gaps of America. Kweisi said, as all of you know, that the NAACP was formed 90 years ago. It was founded, as all of you know I'm sure, in direct response to a riot in Springfield, Illinois. Now, I learned something in getting ready to come here tonight that I did not know -- I had always thought it was simply a cruel irony that this riot occurred in Abraham Lincoln's hometown and where he was buried. I learned that the white mob was actually deliberately conducting the riot there, trying to make Mr. Lincoln turn over in his grave. They yelled, storming through the black neighborhoods, "Lincoln freed you; we'll show you where you belong." Well, quite to the contrary, it was the NAACP that helped to show you where you belong. (Applause.) On any bus, and any lunch counter and any voting booth; in any school, in the Armed Forces, in the highest echelons of government and business -- you belong everywhere. And so do your friends. And we will never make what Congressman John Lewis so beautifully called the "beloved community" until everybody who belongs can be wherever they belong. (Applause.) I am very grateful for the work we have done together in these last six years. Previous speakers commented on all these folks from our administration, and how our crowd looks like America. What I would like history to say is, they had the administration that looked the most like America and that did the most for America (applause) -- proving that excellence and diversity and community all go hand in hand. I am grateful that we have stronger communities, with a dropping crime rate; that there are only about half as many people on welfare as there were six years ago; that the doors of college are open to every high school student who will work for it through the HOPE scholarship and the other academic aid that we have provided; that we have the longest peacetime expansion in history, and the lowest peacetime unemployment since 1957. I am grateful that the prosperity is wider, with the lowest African American unemployment rate ever recorded, the highest African American home ownership rate ever recorded, record numbers of new African American businesses every year. (Applause.) But it takes a long time to get it all fixed. Just before I came over here tonight, 117 years too late, I awarded a pardon, posthumously, to Lt. Henry Flipper -- (applause) -- who, because of racial prejudice, was wrongfully convicted of conduct unbecoming an officer and dismissed from the Army more than a century ago. He was born a slave; he was the first African American graduate of West Point. He served with great distinction in the 10th Cavalry. In Fort Sill, Oklahoma, he eliminated the cause of malaria as a civil engineer by digging what is still called "Flipper's Ditch," and is now a national monument. He lived to be 84. He served as an advisor to a Cabinet Secretary; he did all kinds of wonderful work throughout the world. He was cleared of wrongdoing 20 years ago, but he was never, never fully restored in his good name, until about an hour and a half ago, when, in the presence of 16 of his family members, several African American graduates of West Point, General Colin Powell and a number of others who were here, I signed his pardon. (Applause.) Now, we don't want the rest of America to wait 117 years for justice. And we don't want people to have to wait until they're gone for people to say something halfway nice about them. We don't want to have America outraged, even though we honor the outrage, by another killing like the killing of James Byrd. We know still, every day there are qualified African Americans who are turned away from home loans or business loans; African American drivers pulled over because they look suspicious. Some of you call it the offense of driving while black. We know every day there are African American children who are stuck in failing schools when they're entitled to good schools. So we've been working at it for six years, to try to bring a special focus to the need to build one America, and to deal not only with the problems of African Americans, and Hispanic Americans and Native Americans, but the fact that we are now becoming the most diverse democracy in the world -- California, 10 percent Asian American, soon to have no majority race. We started the Initiative on Race in 1997. To institutionalize the work of building one America, I appointed Ben Johnson to continue our work, in an organized, specific and concrete way. And I want you to help us do that. (Applause.) I would like it very much if, after the next presidential election, the new President is asked repeatedly, now who is going to head your One America office? I don't want this to be a one-shot deal. I want this to be a journey, not a destination. And I want it to be something that makes us think more and more every day, seriously, about how we're going to build unity out of our increasing diversity -- get rid of our old problems and meet our new challenges. And I want you to help me do that. I want you to help us, also, to pass this new budget, which helps to close some of those large opportunity gaps -- the disparities in education, in jobs, in economic development, in civil rights enforcement; in home ownership and quality health care. I came here tonight to celebrate and thank you, not to talk policy, but I want to mention just two areas. First, the economy. We all know that even though we have the lowest peacetime unemployment rate since 1957, there are places that haven't felt much of this vaunted recovery. We all know that even though we have the lowest African American unemployment rate ever recorded -- and the same for Hispanic Americans -- it's still quite a bit higher than the national average. And for young, single men, it is still quite high indeed. Now, if we can't use this moment of unprecedented prosperity to bring jobs and opportunity and enterprise to the neighborhoods and to the people who have not yet felt it, but are willing to work for it, we will never get around to doing the job. Now is the time to do that. (Applause.) So the NAACP is a non-partisan organization; you do have Republican supporters out across this country who believe in civil rights. And I want you to go get them. (Laughter.) And haul them up here to Washington, with the Democrats, too, and say, look, we want you to pass this new markets initiative. We can put $15 billion in private investment into neighborhoods in this country that have not seen new investment and new jobs and new opportunity for people by giving the right kind of incentives, the right kind of tax cuts, the right kind of loan guarantees, the right kind of support to business people. And if we don't get around to doing it now, we will never get around to it. We need to do it now. (Applause.) I also want to tell you that a lot of far-sighted business people have figured out that it would be very good for the American economy. Why? For the first five year of my presidency, 30 percent of our growth came from expanded exports, selling more to other people around the world. Last year we had a good year, but we didn't get 30 percent growth from our exports. Why? You know why -- because of the financial troubles in Asia and in a lot of Latin American countries. Now, I think we ought to help our friends in Asia, Latin America and in Africa to trade with us more so we can grow and they can grow. But in the meanwhile, we've got the most significant untapped market for the growth of the American economy right here at home, in all these neighborhoods that still are not growing as they should. (Applause.) The second thing I want to ask you to do is to help me give every child in this country a world-class education. (Applause.) I want you to help me finish the job of hiring 100,000 more teachers. I want you to help me finish the job again, I want you to bring your Republican and your Democratic friends up here and help me convince the Congress not to say no this time to our proposal to build or modernize 5,000 schools. I'm tired of going into these inner-city schools and seeing schools so old we can't even hook them up to computers, with broken windows and peeling plaster. It's wrong. (Applause.) And in many other areas, you go and the kids are all having half their classes in house trailers because the schools are bursting at the seams. We need to do that. I want you to help me continue our work to hook up every classroom and library to the Internet by the year 2000. (Applause.) I want to ask you to help me change the way we give out federal money, to not become victim to a tyranny of low expectations. I have said many times that I want to end the practice of social promotion, but not for the purpose of punishing the kids for a system that is failing them. And let me just give you one fact -- I said this in the State of the Union, but I'm going to say it until I'm convinced every American knows it -- last year, in the International test of Math and Science, a representative sample of American children, by race and income, scored near the top of the world in the 4th grade test. By the 8th grade they had fallen to average. By the 12th grade they were near the bottom. Nobody came and took brain cells out of those kids' heads. They did not get dumber. The system was failing them. (Applause.) So, yes, I believe we should end social promotion, but we also are tripling funds for after-school and summer school and tutoring programs, and sending more college students into the schools to mentor kids when they're in middle school , and tell them they can stay in school and go to college and what they need to do to do that. We need to do that. We are dramatically increasing our scholarship program to tell young people, if you'll go into inner cities or isolated rural areas and teach school for three or four years, we'll pay off your student loan. (Applause.) We want you to go out there and give something back to your country. (Applause.) We have got to change the way we spend the money. The teachers and the parents and the kids are telling us what works; we ought to stop funding what doesn't work and start funding what does. We ought to say that school districts should raise standards for teachers, and we put money in there. There are so many of our teachers out there having to teach courses with the schools overcrowded, that they don't have college majors or college minors in. That's what happens in high school. It's not that these people are not dedicated -- they are. But they have not had the chance to be properly prepared. And the schools can't get enough teachers to put enough people in the classroom with the kind of academic background. We ought to help them change that. And there are school districts with schools that are doing great and schools that aren't doing so well. The school with the biggest -- the state with the biggest gain in student performance in the last couple of years is North Carolina, because they adopted a strategy that says, we've got to turn around or shut down failing schools. When you do that, you almost never have to shut one down -- they find a way to turn around. The great English scholar Benjamin -- I mean, Samuel Johnson, once said -- I had Benjamin Johnson on my mind -- (laughter) -- Samuel Johnson said that it is remarkable how the prospect of one's own demise concentrates the mind. (Laughter.) We don't want to punish anybody; we want to turn schools around. And there's things in this budget to do that -- and to help the teachers, and to give the parents more information, and to help more districts set up charter schools, and to do things that will work, so that we don't have one size fits all. I read a story the other day about a school district out West that organized a school just for high school dropouts. Let them come at different hours. Let them have access to computers and special tutors. And all of a sudden, almost all the dropouts came back to school. There are all kinds of different things that can be done to raise the performance level of our schools. But I think all of you know that we'll never really have one America, and we'll never really get by discrimination, unless we create opportunity in the schools, and opportunity in the economy. So I ask you to help me pass these initiatives. (Applause.) Now, let me just say one last thing. I was delighted to be asked to come tonight, honored to accept. The work that I have been privileged to do as President, and before, in my life to advance the cause of equal opportunity is perhaps the thing I cherish most, of all the things that I and my wife, and our administration have been able to do. You'd be amazed how many times in my weekly lunch with the Vice President, after we get through with whatever business we have to do, we get back to talking about this subject. I guess it's because I grew up in the segregated South. Maybe it's because I met and was influenced by people like some of you here tonight, so many years ago. But part of it is, I know that it's a pure miracle that, starting out from where I did as a kid, I wound up here tonight. A pure miracle. (Applause.) I once heard a guy say, every politician wants you to believe he was born in a log cabin he built himself. (Laughter.) But the truth is, we don't build our log cabins ourselves. And not a person standing here or sitting here tonight got here on your own. And most of us get out of this life better off than we deserve, because God is good and so are the people that we get in touch with. (Applause.) But it really bothers me that there are children in this country, who are certainly just as smart, full of as many dreams, with whatever abilities God gave me, they have them -- who may not be able to live out their dreams. And if all of us as citizens have one responsibility apart from honoring our country and Constitution and laws -- it ought to be to make sure that at the end of our days we have done everything we can to make sure no one we ever touched was denied the chance to live their dreams. We know we'll be better off when that's true. We know we'll all get something out. I look at these young kids that are here tonight, these young people. I'm kind of jealous, actually. If they'd let me be 20, I think I'd let them be President. (Laughter.) You know? I think about the life that lies before them, and all that they might be. I imagine, 30 years from now, some African American, Hispanic, Asian female standing here as President of the United States, you know? (Applause.) But I know that as long as there are Native American reservations, where young American citizens live in communities where the diabetes rate is two and three and four and five times the national average; as long as there are neighborhoods where kids really don't have a chance to get a world-class education; as long as there are places where nobody's taking care of the pollution, so the health rates are not what they ought to be; as long as there is anyplace where anybody can't live out their dreams, the NAACP will have work to do. And America will have new ground to break. And together, there is no better cause for our energies and our lives. Thank you, and God bless you. (Applause.) END 9:40 P.M.

ATTACHMENT 1 ATT CREATION TIME/DATE: 0 00:00:00.00 TEXT: Unable to convert ARMS_EXT:[ATTACH.D83]MAIL451607457.036 to ASCII, The following is a HEX DUMP: 1 December 7, 2015 MEMORANDUM TO: TODD STERN FROM: MICHAEL RODEMEYER SUBJECT: UPCOMING CLIMATE SCIENCE EVENTS The attached list of upcoming climate science events remains unsatisfying slim. We are going to continue to work with our contacts in the science community to identify further opportunities. As we discuss efforts to improve the science communications process, there are several points we should keep in mind. First, science is a pretty decentralized process. We can't realistically expect to know what individual scientists at universities are going to be saying at conferences or publishing in peer-reviewed journals, although we often (but not always) hear "through the grapevine" when a newsworthy article or speech is about to come out. On the other hand, we should certainly expect to be alerted to any climate science event being organized or announced by the federal research agencies - NOAA, NASA, NSF, EPA, DOE, etc. And we need to do a better job of tracking reports by independent groups, such as the National Academy of Sciences, scientific and professional societies, and NGOs. We also need to track the "skeptic" organizations and events. Second, we need to be mindful of the perception by some that climate science is politicized - and therefore not credible. If our goal in helping to communicate the science is to help shape public (and Congressional) opinion about the validity and importance of the climate change issue, we undermine that goal to the extent that the science is not viewed as objective and credible. The attached letter in this week's issue of Science from S. Ichtiaque Rasool, the former head of NASA's climate change program, warns of the danger of using emerging science to jumping to political conclusions. That being said, we believe that there are untapped opportunities for us to help communicate the scientific consensus on climate change. Some of the events and meetings listed below offer some opportunities, but with some creative thinking we can identify more. One option would be to consider additional OSTP publications, like the "Climate Change: State of Knowledge" pamphlet. We are, for example, working on a guide to skeptical questions about climate change that might be a candidate for publication or for use as talking points. In addition, we can consider sponsoring scientific workshops that could highlight newsworthy areas of science - like some of the work going on in the [Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion] Arctic regions, or the relation between extreme events and climate change. (The USGCRP sponsors a monthly science seminar held on the Hill that we may be able to get more out of.) Finally, the National Assessment will be coming together this year and there may be multiple scientific communication opportunities before the final report is released at the end of the year. We will shortly get you a brief description of the National Assessment project to give you a better sense of what this is all about and what products are likely to be delivered this year. 2 [Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion] CALENDAR OF CLIMATE-RELATED SCIENCE EVENTS 1999 [excluding international events except for FCCC/IPCC] February "Our Changing Planet FY 2000". The National Science and Technology Council (NSTC) "guide" to the U.S. global change research program should be published and made available to Congress in the next several weeks. It contains both FY 00 budget information as well as a description of goals and accomplishments of the program. The USGCRP plans to hold Hill briefings in mid-March. March Climate Change and Implications for Agriculture and Energy. Iowa State University, March 1-2, 1999. National Academy of Sciences (NAS) Board on Atmospheric Science and Climate Meeting (Washington, D.C., Mar 2-3). The NAS Board will be meeting in open session to discuss recent reports (including the climate modeling and climate observations reports). This is essentially a "business" meeting but it could conceivably generate some trade/science press interest. IPCC/NRC Workshop: "Satellite Derived Tropospheric Temperature Record: Understanding the Uncertainties": Hosted by Tom Karl (NOAA) in Asheville, N.C., March 8-9 to provide a scientific forum for discussion of the MSU (satellite) record. The meeting will address the recent scientific articles that have found that the 17-year "cooling trend" detected by satellites (and frequently cited by skeptics) was due to an artifact of measurement and not real. PNGV Medal Awards Ceremony - possible dates March 15, 16, or 17. (Trying to accommodate VP's schedule): This competitive award recognizes the accomplishments and technical contributions of government-industry collaborations in PNGV. This year's Medal will be awarded to the team that was the first to demonstrate the operation of a fuel cell using fuel generated from gasoline - in essence, converting gasoline to electricity. This is a key milestone in the program to develop a practical automotive fuel cell. Key contributors include individuals from Arthur D. Little, Plug Power LLC, General Motors, and Los Alamos and Argonne National Labs. Scientific Assessment of Ozone Depletion: 1998 - Release of full WMO/UNEP report (mid-March to April). While this key assessment report on ozone depletion is unlikely to contain any major new science, it is likely to be an opportunity to make linkages between global warming and ozone depletion. IPCC: WGIII Expert Meeting on Economic Impacts of Climate Change (The 3 [Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion] Hague, The Netherlands, March). At this point, it is not clear whether any major "new" work will be presented here. NAS workshop on Climate, Ecosystems, Infectious Diseases and Human Health (Washington, D.C., Mar 23-24). Only limited information available at this time; we'll follow up. April National Academy of Sciences PNGV report (to be published sometime between April and June): "Review of the Research Program of the Partnership for a New Generation of Vehicles-5th Report". This report has been published annually by the National Research Council Standing Committee to Review the Research Program of the Partnership for a New Generation of Vehicles. This committee critically reviews the technical programs, PNGV goals and benchmarks. At this point, we do not know what the content of this report will be beyond the overview and critique of the technology downselect that was made 1 year ago. Maine Global Climate Change Conference Lewiston, ME, April 6-8 IPCC XV plenary session - (April 16-19 San Jose, Costa Rica) Will consider the IPCC Special Report on Aviation but it's doubtful that this meeting will generate any science news. USGCRP Seminar on Arctic Research (Washington, D.C., April 19th). Doug Martinson, one of the scientists on the SHEBA arctic expedition, will be participate in at USGCRP-sponsored public seminar on the Hill. SBSTA Sec. 3.4 Agriculture carbon workshop - (late April, Indianapolis, IN) AAAS Colloquium on Science and Technology Policy (Washington, D.C. April 14-16) This annual colloquium tends to focus on the overall S&T budget, but there could be opportunities to put together panels to focus on climate-related research. Unlikely to generate news, but it might be a good message forum for us. May President's Committee of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST) Report on International Cooperation in Energy Research, Development, Demonstration, and Deployment. (due to be delivered to POTUS May 1, 1999). Chaired by John Holdren, this report is the international sequel to the domestic energy policy report produced by PCAST in 1997. The report will review all the U.S. governmental programs (DOE, USAID, Export-Import Bank, etc.) related to international energy development and deployment. The report will contain recommendations for programs and policies to 4 [Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion] improve US efforts to promote sustainable, renewable and climate-friendly energy development abroad. We anticipate press and Hill events for this report. American Water Resources Association (AWRA): Potential Consequences of Climate Variability and Change to Water Resources of the United States (Atlanta, Georgia, May 10-12) The AWRA is a private organization of water management professionals, including companies, institutions, and state and federal water managers. AWRA's conference will provide a forum for presentation and review of the National Assessment's draft water sector assessment findings. National Academy of Sciences: Event for Closure of International Decade on Natural Disaster Reduction - May-June (Event TBD) For the last ten years, the U.S. has participated in the "International Decade of Natural Disaster Reduction" - efforts to understand how to better predict, warn, resist, and recover from natural disasters. The increasing frequency of extreme weather events under climate change have been a part of this work. The National Academy envisions a major US meeting to summarize the work that's been done and to identify issues ahead. The VP or other high-ranking Administration officials will be asked to participate. American Geophysical Union, Spring Meeting (Boston, Massachusetts, May 31 - June 4) Scientific presentations on aspects of climate change, including a special session on integrated climate assessment. There's often a lot of press generated from science presentations made at the AGU meeting. FCCC Subsidiary Bodies (May 31- June 11; Bonn, Germany) October COP-V (Oct 25 - Nov. 5, Bonn, Germany) Fall-Winter Sector, Regional and National Synthesis reports prepared as part of National Assessment of the Consequences of Climate Variability and Climate Change. 5 [Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion] Attachment Letter to the Editor, Science Scientific Responsibility in Global Climate Change Research Over the last few years, several "major findings" in the area of global climate change research have been retracted or shown to be erroneous. The credibility of a few others is still being challenged in the literature. All of them were attempts to extract global climate change signals from satellites that are either so new that we are still learning how to use them or are so old that sensors are continuously degrading, orbits are declining, and the local observation time is drifting from one year to another. So, to try to extract a signal of global warming that, for example, is predicted to be of less than l°C per decade, with a sea- level rise of 3 to 6 millimeters (mm) per year and an increase in the growing season in the Northern Hemisphere of about 1 day a year is challenging, to say the least. It's no wonder then that when papers come out saying, for example, that the sea level is rising at the rate of 5.8 mm per year (1), it is immediately taken by the media as "proof" of the onset of the much- awaited response of the ocean to greenhouse warming. This result was based on the analysis of data from one of the altimeters on board the U.S.-French satellite Topex-Poseidon. However, in less than a year an error was found in one of the algorithms. A joint paper, this time with the French team, revised the estimate of global sea-level rise over a 3-year period down to zero (2). Today, after a more careful analysis of both the altimeters on board the satellite over a longer period (1992-1997), one finds a positive trend of between 1 to 2 mm per year. (3)The implications of these differences are huge when one is trying to predict when the Maldives or large parts of Bangladesh will go underwater: in 50 years or 200 years? During most of the last decade, a battle has been raging between those who have said that the 1990s are the warmest years on record and those who have published satellite data showing that the middle atmosphere temperature has not risen at all, but instead has cooled at a rate of 0.05°C per decade between 1979 and 1995 (4). Today we know that variations in the satellite orbital geometry were one of several reasons for these spurious results (5). The same data, reanalyzed, now show a positive trend of +0.07°C per decade (R. A. Kerr, News Focus, 25 Sept., p. 1948). Another recent paper (6) reports that the growing season in the Northern Hemisphere has lengthened by about 10 days in a decade, very close to the model predicted value. However, another paper (7), using data from the same satellite series, but correcting for sensor degradation and so forth differently, concludes that "[t]he artificial trends caused by the combination of calibration residuals and satellite orbit drift should be removed to alleviate their misidentification as real trends in the earth's climate system.... It is clear that to build a 10- to 20-year history of planetary-scale changes with the needed accuracy to assess the predicted global climate change requires extreme caution. The reason is obvious. The "weather satellites" [NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) series] that are being used to unravel these long-term and highly subtle changes were not designed for this job. They were made to observe the changes in weather patterns from one day to the next, not to monitor climate change from one year to another. The latter can only be achieved with great difficulty, if at all. In any case, in such published work, a statement about the confidence limit around any quantitative estimate of global climate change should be included. Finally, just before the November 1998 global warming conference in Buenos Aires, S. Fan et al. (Reports, 16 Oct., p. 442) reported that the United States is a major sink of an amount of carbon close to what it emits. This is result of a model run, and there appears to be no credible way to test it. The carbon "sink" resulting in 6 [Automated Records Management System Hex-Dump Conversion] more storage in the soils or more rapid growth in the vegetation cover, or both, may remain undetectable for years, even beyond the next generation of satellites. Let us hope that these modelers are right; otherwise, the U.S. research community will begin to lose credibility in this critical field. As the debate on global warming moves from the scientific to the policy world, we must be careful not to rush to publish. The price for a wrong decision based on spurious analyses may not be insignificant. S. Ichtiaque Rasool* 60, Quai Louis Bleriot, Paris 75016, France.

EST PRESIDENT CLINTON: Please sit down. Good afternoon. President Chirac and I, as always, have had a very good meeting. We had a lot to discuss and we have a lot to do together. Most importantly today we are working together to end the fighting in Kosovo and to help the people there obtain the autonomy and self-government they deserve. We now call on both sides to make the tough decisions that are necessary to stop the conflict immediately, before more people are killed and the war spreads. The talks going on outside Paris are set to end on Saturday. The Kosovo Albanians have shown courage in moving forward the peace accord that we, our NATO allies, and Russia have proposed. Serbia's leaders now have a choice to make. They can join an agreement that meets their legitimate concerns and gives them a chance to show that an autonomous Kosovo can thrive as part of their country, or they can stonewall. But if they do, they will be held accountable. If there is an effective peace agreement, NATO stands ready to help implement it. We also stand united in our determination to use force if Serbia fails to meet its previous commitment to withdraw forces from Kosovo, and if it fails to accept the peace agreement. I have ordered our aircraft to be ready, to act as part of a NATO operation, and I will continue to consult very closely with Congress in the days ahead. The challenge in Kosovo and the one we have addressed in Bosnia underscore the central role NATO plays in promoting peace and stability in Europe. Today, the President and I discussed the 50th Anniversary Summit, which will be held here in Washington in April, to admit Poland, Hungary and the Czech Republic as new members, and to set NATO's course for the new century. The conflicts in the Balkans also highlight the need to strengthen stability across Southeast Europe. The United States and France are pleased to announce today that we will pursue a new initiative we hope other allies will join, to increase cooperation with Southeast Europe's emerging democracies on security matters; to coordinate security assistance to them from NATO countries; to promote regional cooperation and economic development. The President and I also discussed our common efforts to reform the global financial system and to support economic recovery in countries that have been so hard hit. Last fall, working with other G-7 nations and key emerging economies, we set out a comprehensive agenda: making financial systems more open and resilient, improving international cooperation on financial oversight. Just this weekend in Bonn, our finance ministers will address these topics, and the creation of a new financial stability forum. We're moving ahead on promoting sound lending practices and strengthening protections for the most vulnerable members of societies when crisis strikes. We need to do more to reduce the debts of the poorest, most heavily indebted nations, as they seek to meet basic human needs and undertake economic reforms. And I thank President Chirac for championing this cause for such a long time. Our budget makes a significant new investment in that challenge, and we have proposed ways to help the IMF, with its existing resources, do the same. On these issues we're aiming to make real progress by the time of the June G-8 summit in Cologne, Germany. I very much appreciate the President's leadership in this area. We discussed the continuing challenge of promoting economic recovery in Russia and working with Russia to prevent its weapons of mass destruction, missiles and technologies from falling into the hands of outlaw nations and terrorists. We will continue our cooperation on securing peace in the Middle East. We talked about the Middle East peace process at some length' we talked about our common determination to restrain Iraq's weapons of mass destruction program. We want to expand cooperation in Africa, promoting peace in the Great Lakes region, encouraging and African Crisis Response capability. And today we are announcing that we're joining together with African nations in an effort I spoke about first last year in Senegal, building an African Center for Security Studies, to promote peace and democracy. Finally, Mr. President, I want to thank France for showing leadership by ratifying the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty. One hundred fifty-two nations have signed the treaty, which would end nuclear testing forever and make it harder for more nations to develop nuclear weapons. Once again I want to express my hope that our Senate will also provide its advice and consent for ratification this year. Mr. President, the floor is yours. PRESIDENT CHIRAC: Mr. President, ladies and gentlemen, first of all, I want to say how happy I am to be once again here in the United States and here in Washington. I'm happy to be in this country, which is where everything is moving; this country which constantly surprises the world and a country which for a long time I have been very fond of. And when I feel well, I feel happy, and once again I'm happy to be the guest of President Bill Clinton. And I think everyone knows the regard and the friendship I have and I've had for a long time for President Clinton, and I want to thank him once again for his hospitality. The President has covered, more or less, all the subjects that were on the agenda of our talks, so I'm going to make two remarks only. The first is to say that our agreement on the present problems in Kosovo is an unqualified agreement, it's a complete agreement. We're almost at the end of the time allotted for trying to work things out at Rambouillet, and after President Clinton and I would like to say to the two parties, and in particular to President Milosevic who in fact holds more or less the key to the solution -- that the time has come to shoulder all his responsibilities and to choose the path of wisdom, and not the path of war, which would bear very serious consequences for people who would make that choice, for themselves and for their people. It's a very heavy responsibility that they would be taking, if they were to do that. I've already had occasion to say that, as far as the Europeans are concerned, it is our continent which is involved here, and we want our continent to be in peace, to be at peace, and we will not accept that situations such as the present situation in Kosovo should continue. My second remark concerns a subject which President Clinton has not mentioned, but that we have talked about at some time, and that for me it's the big problem, for the big issue for the beginning of the next century, and that is what President Clinton raised himself about a couple of months ago, in a talk he gave -- the question of humanizing globalization, making globalization more human. Everyone understands that globalization is both inevitable and also it bears progress, and this can be understood every day, ever more. And this is something that must be -- a process that must be encouraged. It's a good thing. But everyone I think can also understand that there can be social consequences of this and it's really our job to control them. And it's one of the big challenges I think of this society in the years to come. And for we, the Europeans, it was really very gratifying to hear a President of the United States put this issue to the fore of matters that the world has to contend with. And I entirely agree with what he has said. And it's also a question that we have talked about among ourselves. Otherwise, President Clinton has, in fact, covered everything we have been talking about, so I won't add anything because I entirely agree with him. And, of course, I also agree to reply to your questions on these important issues for the whole world. PRESIDENT CLINTON: -- French and American journalists, beginning with Mr. Hunt. Q President Clinton, President Milosevic refused to meet with the U.S. Envoy today, Christopher Hill, and said that he would not give up Kosovo, even at the price of a bombing. Is there any possibility that NATO would extend the Saturday noon deadline for reaching an agreement? And what do you say to President Yeltsin of Russia when he said that, we will not allow Kosovo to be touched? And for President Chirac, did you and President Clinton find agreement today on the issue of Iraqi sanctions? PRESIDENT CLINTON: First, let me say I think it would be a mistake to extend the deadline. And I respect the position of Russia and I thank the Russians for supporting the peace process, as well as the proposed agreement. We had many of the same tensions in Bosnia, where ultimately we wound up working together for peace. I believe that is what will happen. I would like to go back to the -- just very briefly -- to the merits of the argument that Mr. Milosevic made. He says that if he accepts this multinational peacekeeping force it's like giving up Kosovo. I personally believe it's the only way he can preserve Kosovo as a part of Serbia. Under their laws, Kosovo is supposed to be autonomous, but a part of Serbia. Its autonomy was effectively stripped from it years ago. We are now trying to find some way to untangle the injuries and harms and arguments that have come from both sides, and permit a period of three years to develop within which the Serbian security forces can withdraw, a police force, civil institutions can be developed we can give them a chance to prove that they can function together. I don't think, unless we do this, there is any way for the integrity of Serbia ultimately to be preserved, because of the incredible hostility and the losses and the anger that's already there. So I'm not trying to -- at least from our part, and I believe President Chirac and all the Europeans feel the same way -- we're trying to give this a chance to work, not trying to provide a wedge to undo Serbia. Mr. President. PRESIDENT CHIRAC: Well, I entirely share the position expressed by President Clinton. I would doubt that -- I'm convinced that the only possibility for Mr. Milosevic, the only way he can keep Kosovo within internationally recognized frontiers, as of course, planned in the Yugoslav constitution, a high degree of substantial autonomy, substantial autonomy -- the only way he can keep the situation is to accept the proposals that are made today. Any other solution, I repeat, would involve for Mr. Milosevic some very serious consequences, indeed. Q If the failure is everything fails tomorrow, what could then prevent a military strike on the part of NATO? If there is no agreement tomorrow, what would then prevent PRESIDENT CLINTON: I think there would have to be an agreement before the strikes commence. I don't think there is an option. Because, keep in mind, part of what we have asked is that President Milosevic do things that he has already agreed to do, as I said in my opening statement. And we would -- the NATO nations have decided, and have given the Secretary General authority, to pursue a strategy which would at least reduce his capacity to take further aggressive military action against the Kosovar Albanians. This assumes, of course, that he doesn't accept it and that they do, as we discussed. But that would be my position. I believe that is both our positions. PRESIDENT CHIRAC: Without a shadow of a doubt. PRESIDENT CLINTON: Helen? Q President Clinton, what lessons have you learned from your 13-month ordeal? Do you think the office of the presidency has been harmed? And what advice would you give to future Presidents? PRESIDENT CLINTON: Well, of course, I've learned a lot of personal lessons, most of which I have already discussed -- and Presidents are people, too. I have learned, again, an enormous amount of respect for our Constitution, our framers, and for the American people. And my advice to future Presidents would be to decide what you believe you ought to do for the country, and focus on it and work hard. The American people hire you to do that and will respond if you work at it and if they sense that you're doing this for them. Q And you don't think the office of the President has been harmed? PRESIDENT CLINTON: Oh, I think the Constitution has been, in effect, re-ratified. And I hope that the presidency has not been harmed -- I don't believe it has been. I can't say that I think has been good for the country, but we will see. I expect to have two good years here. I think the American people expect the Congress and me to get back to work; expect us either not to have any destructive feelings or, if we do, not to let them get in the way of our doing their business. These are jobs, these are positions of public responsibility. These are -- and the United States has great responsibilities to its own people and to the rest of the world. And I don't believe that any of us can afford to let what has happened get in the way of doing our best for our own people and for the future. And I'm going to do my very best to do that. And I think that we should all discipline ourselves with that in mind. Q My question is to both Presidents. Have you talked about bananas? Because this is an American-European problem, but also a problem for France because of the Caribbean bananas. And have you found a compromise? Could President Clinton explain to me why the United States is being so aggressive on this business? Because to my knowledge, and contrary to France, and Europe, the United States themselves don't produce bananas. PRESIDENT CLINTON: Yes, we talked about it. (Laughter.) And we're being quite strong about it because we do have companies involved, and there are people involved in other countries, not just the Caribbean Central America, for example -- and because we think the trade law is clear. We won a trade dispute. We won. And we have been trying to -- there's been a finding here, and we've been trying to work out a reasonable solution with the Europeans, especially with the British, and others, and there has been no willingness to resolve this. We don't want to provoke a trade crisis, but we won. And from our point of view this is one place where we disagree the Europeans are basically saying, well, you won this trade fight under the law, but we still don't think you have a meritorious position; therefore, we will not yield. Well, when we lose trade fights, we lose them. And if we're going to have a global trading system and a system for resolving disputes -- which, most of believe, normally take too long, anyway -- and if we're, all of us, expected to have a reasonable resolution when we lose -- and that's what you'd expect the United States to do -- then that's what we want from Europe. We took this matter through the normal chain of events, and we won. And I think most people in Europe believe we shouldn't have won, but sometimes we lose cases we think we shouldn't have lost, too. And, therefore, we would like a resolution of this consistent with the finding of international trade law. PRESIDENT CHIRAC: I would simply add this, that yes, we did talk about this problem, and President Clinton just said that the United States had companies -- corporations involved. And my answer is that we have the actual workers who are involved. And I also added that the banana in the Caribbean was obviously the best, the best banana in the world, and that therefore they had to be safeguarded, and in the interest of mankind and I counted on him to understand this. (Laughter.) Q I wonder if you could share with us some of your thoughts about the pros and cons of -- Senate seat in New York -- Mrs. Clinton -- PRESIDENT CLINTON: Well, first of all, I think it's important that you all understand -- I think you know this -- that this is nothing that ever crossed her mind until other people began to mention it to her. To me, the most important thing is that she decides to do what she wants to do. And I will be strongly supportive of whatever decision she makes and will do all I can to help on this and any other decision from now on -- just as she's helped me for the last 20-plus years. If she decided to do it and she were elected, I think she would do a fabulous job. But I think that it's important to remember this is an election which occurs in November of 2000, and she has just been through a very exhausting year. And there are circumstances which have to be considered and I think some time needs to be taken here. I also think that even in a presidential race, it's hard to keep a kettle of water boiling for almost two years. And so I just -- from my point of view, this thing is -- it's a little premature. And I would like to see her take -- my advice has been to take some time, get some rest, listen to people on both sides of the argument, and decide exactly what you think is right to do. And then, whatever she decides I'll be for. Q Mr. President, if it appears that the Serbs -- they have to be sanctioned because they refuse the presence of NATO troops in Kosovo, have you the assurance that the Kosovo Liberation Army will renounce its demands on independence? PRESIDENT CHIRAC: Well, as I said before, the pressure that we are exerting, legitimately, especially we're exercising on both parties, on both sides. And we replied to a question on Serbia because the question was on Serbia, but let's be perfectly clear -- a lot will depend on the personal position adopted by Mr. Milosevic. But it goes without saying that if the failure, the breakdown, was caused by the Kosovars, their responsibility, sanctions of a different kind, probably, but very firm sanctions would be applied against them. We haven't -- there's no choice. I mean, we don't have to choose. We want peace, that's all. PRESIDENT CLINTON: First of all, I can entirely support what President Chirac said. But if I could just emphasize that the agreement requires that they accept autonomy, at least for three years, and sets in motion a three-year process to resolve all these outstanding questions. Three years would give us time to stop the killing, cool the tempers. And it would also give time for the Serbs to argue that if they return to the original constitutional intent -- that is, to have genuine autonomy for Kosovo, as Kosovo once enjoyed -- that that would be the best thing for them, economically and politically. And people would have a chance to see and feel those things. Right now -- after all that's gone on, and all the people that have died, and all the bloody fighting, and all the incredibly vicious things that have been said -- you know, we just need a timeout here. We need a process within which we can get the security forces out -- as Mr. Milosevic said he would do, before -- and build some internal institutions within Kosovo capable of functioning, and then see how it goes. I think that's the most important thing. And so, yes -- to go back to what President Chirac said -- yes, both sides have responsibility. Their responsibility would be to acknowledge that that is the deal for the next three years, during which time we resolve the long-term, permanent questions. Thank you very much. END 4:10 P.M.

EST THE PRESIDENT: Thank you. I want to thank you for a typically reticent Yankee welcome tonight. (Laughter.) It is wonderful to be back. (Applause.) I have very much enjoyed being with Governor Shaheen and with Bill today, and we've had a lot of time to visit. I want you to know that it gives me an enormous amount of pleasure and pride to see the Governor at her task, to know the victories that you have given her, to know that now she has a Democrat ic state Senate for the first time in 86 years -- (applause) -- and that you made a lot of gains in the House, and that the Democratic Party is moving in the right direction. I thank Jeff and Sophia and all the other officers of the Dem ocratic Party, all the legislators and other people who are here. I am glad to be back. (Applause.) I'd like to thank the people from New Hampshire who have been a part of our administration -- I'm not sure I can remember all of them, so many have been. But I would like to thank Joe Gramazon and Stephanie Powers, Resha McMahon, Terry Shumacher (phonetic spellings.) I talked to him today; I called Terry Schumacher and said, it's just like the Caribbean up here in New Hampshire, you ought to be here. (Laughter.) George Bruno, Dick Sweat so many others. I want to thank -- I brought four people back here tonight who slogged through the snows of New Hampshire with me in '92 and '92 -- Michael Hooley, Jeff Forbes, Paul Begala and Bruce Lindsey -- and they are glad to be here and we thank them. (Applause.) You know, the last time I was in this building, I believe, was at the Democratic Convention in the campaign of '92. And I remember that the center aisle was open, and everything was crowded, and all the candidates got to have a little demonstration. And in my demonstration, there were a bunch of students who carried a banner down the middle aisle for me; I'll never forget it. And to see this vast crowd here today, celebrating the successes of our party and our nation and your state, is wonderful. You know, I didn't know exactly what I was going to say today when I got here. I remember when I first started coming here, people kind of laughed at me when I said that New Hampshire was a lot like my home: all the experts expected you to send me home. (Laughter.) Instead, you made me feel at home, and I still do. I love it. (Applause.) In 1992, when I came here, when Hillary came here, amidst all the economic problems and personal turmoil, people whose businesses had been closed because their loans were cancelled in some cases, people who had never missed a payment; elderly people who were having to choose between food and medicine; young working families who couldn't buy health insurance because their children had been sick I remember a young girl who talked to me about the pain in her family because her father could not get over the fact that he was unemployed and he could no longer take care of his family. In the middle of that difficult time the people of New Hampshire came out to see me and Hillary and listen to what we had to say. You took us into your homes. You shared your struggles and your dreams. And in so many ways, the story of America in 1991 and 1992 was, for me, the personal histories I heard in New Hampshire. I saw a lot of people today that I met then, that I've tried to keep up with all the times I've come back here since then. I think, of all the things that were said to me today the things that meant the most were -- well, there were really two things. First, to know that people are doing better and feel better about their lives, their children's future, our country's future. I got to check in today with Ron and RhondaLee Machos, and I made them the poster family for my struggle for health care access because their oldest child, Ronnie, was born with a heart problem. Today I saw Ronnie and Tristen, his little brother, and Mamma's about to have a third son. But I got a letter from the dad the other day who said, "Little Ronnie is doing exceptionally well. No problems with his heart. Looks like he needs no further surgery. He scored two goals and got one assist in his last hockey game. That's a long way from being born with a hole in your heart." (Applause.) "Younger son Tristen is seven this year, and quite a pistol" I saw him today "and RhondaLee is pregnant with our third child." Listen to this; this is the point. "One thing we will experience for the first time is health insurance and pregnancy." Those are the kinds of stories I wanted to hear after we had a chance to work together to make America a better place. (Applause.) The other thing I heard that made me feel so good today was that any number of people in various ways said, we stuck with you because you came to us with a detailed program and you did exactly what you said you would do, and it worked. (Applause.) Well, today I didn't do it, we did it. You did it. Don't ever forget I was in Dover today, you know, where I coined that now famous line that "if you would stick with me I would stick with you until the last dog died." (Applause.) And the people of Dover had any number of humorous things to say about that. (Laughter.) We've seen a lot of dogs killed, but at least the last one is still living. (Laughter.) This dog is limping, but still going. I heard it all. (Laughter and applause.) Here is the point: If you had listened to the political experts, the dog would have died. (Laughter.) But instead you held out a lifeline. You decided that the election should go on. You decided that these ideas, that this new direction for our country deserved a fair hearing among the American people. You embraced our cause. People ask me all the time, well, what if this, that or the other thing had happened and you hadn't become President? All I know is, I have never forgotten as anyone who has worked for me in the White House will tell you the kindness and the toughness, the humanity and the determination of the people of New Hampshire who would not let our campaign and what we want to do together for America die. And I never will. (Applause.) Now, the point of all that is that every time you hear about something good that's happened in America, you ought to say, I was part of that. This is a journey we have taken together. In America, there is not a difference between the government and the people between those who govern and those who let them govern. You gave me permission to do this based on a contract I made with you and the rest of the American people. And it's been quite a wonderful journey. When I came here seven years ago today, we had the New Hampshire primary. The unemployment rate was 7.3 percent. Today, it's 2.9 percent. (Applause.) In the four years before I took office, you lost 41,000 jobs here. In the six years since, you've gained 77,500. (Applause.) In 1992, business failures were increasing by 44 percent every single year; in the last six years they've dropped by nearly three-quarters. In 1992, your welfare rolls were among the fastest-growing in the country; today, they are half what they were on the day I took office. (Applause.) We have seen -- as a lot of your police officers said to me today, we have seen new police officers, new teachers, AmeriCorps volunteers, people benefitting from the earned income tax credit, from the HOPE Scholarship -- which about 26,000 New Hampshire students will take advantage of this year; 32,000 more are taking advantage of the lifetime learning tax cut to pay for their college education, and on and on. This is what campaigns are really about. (Applause.) And the test is, do we use the authority and the power and the responsibility given to us by the people to advance their cause. I said over and over and over again in New Hampshire in 1992 and I say again tonight, I was raised to believe that no person can sit on the sidelines and knowingly permit any of his or her fellow citizens to live under burdens that do not permit them to live up to the fullest of their God-given capacity. I always believed if we could create a country in which there was opportunity for every citizen responsible enough to take advantage of it; and if we could convince people that we really have to be one community, that we will never be all that we could be unless we care about our neighbors and work together and realize that our welfare is caught up in the welfare of those who may seem very different from us -- but underneath it all the diversity of America is our greatest strength, as long as we recognize that what unites us is more important than anything that could divide us. I believe that and I still believe that tonight. (Applause.) What I want to say is I believe the reason the Democratic Party is coming back all over America is that more and more Americans believe that -- including independents and Republican -- that we ought to be about opportunity, responsibility and community. We ought to be looking for ways to put people over politics, to put unity over division. It is not an accident that we've gone from a $290-billion deficit to a $70-billion surplus with a bigger one coming this year (applause) -- that we have the longest economic expansion in peacetime in the history of the country and the lowest peacetime unemployment rate since 1957. This is not an accident. It happened because people like you believed in and embraced certain ideas, and then went out and worked like crazy when the chains were taken off of you to make America work again. And you should take pride in that. Pride not only in your own work, but pride in the work you did as citizens, in the work you did in campaigns, in the work you did in talking to your friends and neighbors. This is what makes America work -- when the people are put first, when the dreams and the hopes of the American people are put first, and when the problems are tackled instead of just talked about. That's politics at its best and that's what this building, that convention, all those years ago and this night will always mean to me. (Applause.) Now, I want to get off this rather passionate political note and say something completely dry and academic, something completely factual, purely historical, wholly nonpolitical. Nobody had more to do with the decisions we made and success we've enjoyed than Vice President Al Gore. (Applause.) I understand he may have been around here recently. He wasn't with me in '92, until I became the nominee. But in '93, as he never tires of telling me, he cast a decisive vote on the economic plan that began to bring our country back. And, as he always says, whenever he votes, we win. (Laughter and applause.) I do want to say, you know, I have been very fortunate in the people who have served in our Cabinet. I once had a group of presidential scholars at the White House, and a gentleman who taught at Harvard said, Mr. President, one of the reasons your administration has been successful is that you have the most loyal Cabinet since Thomas Jefferson's second administration. It was an amazing statement. He said, I'm a historian, I know. We have all these people who work in the White House every day, day in and day out, whose names you don't know, who never get any glory, who deserve a lot of this credit. We also have a great team of people around the country working. But 1 have been very blessed by the work especially of the First Lady and the Vice President, and you all know it. (Applause.) So I came here tonight to say thank you, to reminisce just a little bit, to thank you for Hillary and for me and for all of our administration -- but not just to say, thank you. Because if you remember in '92, every event we did, every home we visited, every town hall meeting we had that were bursting at the seams that's the first time I knew I had a chance to get elected President. Actually, I went to Keene and they said, we put you in a place that will hold 150 and if 50 people show up, don't be embarrassed, it's a good turnout; it's New Hampshire, nobody knows who the heck you are. (Laughter.) And 400 showed up and I said, holy moly, something's going on. Oh, by the way, Mayor Pat Russell and her husband, Ron, are celebrating their 49th wedding anniversary tonight. Let's give them a hand there. Happy anniversary. (Applause.) So I wanted to do that. But remember this: We were really worried about making New Hampshire and America and the lives of ordinary citizens work again. I mean, people just wanted things to work. Do you remember, five out of the seven biggest banks had failed? I mean, people wanted things to work. Okay, things are working now. So here's the most important thing I came here to say. I came to deliver on what I really owe you tonight. When things start working and people have been through all that you have been through, the temptation is to stop at what we've already said and done. Pat yourself on the back, feel good about it, kick back, relax, wait for something else to happen. And I came here to tell you tonight that that would be wrong. That would violate the ideas and the principles on which we campaigned, you and I, in 1992 and upon which we were returned to office in 1996. Why? Because, yes, America is working, but we are living in a very dynamic world where things that happen beyond our borders can affect how you live in every community in New Hampshire and throughout this country, and when, you know as well as I do, that we have large, long-term unmet challenges facing us in the century that is now less than a year ahead. And so I ask you to think tonight about what we must do not only to celebrate what's been done and think about the next election, but we need to think if we want to retain the support of the American people from the presidency, if we want to get it back in the Congress, if we want to keep the Democratic Party moving in the right direction in New Hampshire, we have to do a good job for the American people and the people of this state every day for the next two years. That is the best politics -- to do what is right. (Applause.) Now, I will not keep you through a whole recitation of my State of the Union speech -- (laughter) -- but I want you to know that I worked hard on that for months, and it reflects the thinking that I have brought to this job for years. I prayed in the early years of the presidency when we were bailing water out of the ship that we would one day right ourselves and America would be working again, and as a people we could be called to think about these large, long-term challenges. And we would be making a terrible mistake as a political party if we played politics with them, looked only to the next election, and forgot that all of us are charged with the responsibility now that America is working to have America moving forward. What are those challenges? I'll just mention two or three: The aging of America. The challenge of balancing work and family. As more and more people go into the work force and more and more parents are working, the challenge of giving every child a world-class education. (Applause.) The challenge of dealing with our environmental difficulties while continuing to grow the economy, and living more at harmony with ourselves and our neighbors on this planet, and the challenge of dealing with America's obligations to lead the world toward greater peace and freedom and prosperity. I met a lot of people here with Irish roots tonight, like me, who thanked me for the role that I have been honored to play in the Irish peace process. (Applause.) We are struggling today to keep a new conflict from breaking out in the Balkans. We are struggling today to deal with the challenges of chemical and biological weapons so that our children won't have to face them. We are struggling today to help our friends in democratic Russia keep their democracy alive and restore their economic health. And one of the things that I did when I was in New Hampshire that I tell you I believe more strongly today than I did then is to say, folks, there is no longer a dividing line between domestic policy and foreign policy. The person in the remotest, smallest village in northern New Hampshire cannot be unmindful of America's responsibilities and opportunities in this great wide world. We have to fulfill them and the Democratic Party should lead the way. (Applause.) So what does that mean? Let me just mention two things. Let's talk about aging and education, the old and the young. The number of people over 65 is going to double by 2030. People are living longer. The average life expectancy in America now is already over 76. By the time the young people in this room who are under 30 tonight reach their later years their life expectancy, in all probability, will be somewhere in the mid-80s. Now, what does all that mean? First of all, let's not kid ourselves, this is a high-class problem -- and the older I get, the better this problem looks. (Laughter.) So I don't understand all this hand-wringing, this is a good deal, you know? This is a high-class problem. It is a tribute to our health system, to healthier behaviors, to scientific discovery -- and also a fact of the baby boom. Now, what we have to do is to figure out how, when the baby boom retires and medical costs escalate in the Medicare program, which will happen before the baby boom retires, we can preserve our obligation to our seniors without bankrupting their kids and grandkids. This is an issue which affects everyone, the aging of America. More and more people will take care of their parents as they get older, and may need some help doing it. More and more people, if we don't do our job, will feel the squeeze between their parents' retirement needs and their children's education needs. That's why I have said my first priority in dealing with this budget surplus we have waited for 30 years and we have worked for six years, after 12 years in which they quadrupled the debt of the country my first priority is to save Social Security and Medicare and pay down the debt, to strengthen America for the 21st century. (Applause.) Now, we will have a real policy debate with our friends in the Republican Party on that issue. They will agree with us that we should save the surplus necessary for Social Security, and then they'll disagree with us on what the best way to spend it is. And that's good; that's a high-class problem. That's the kind of honest political debate we ought to have. But they will not agree that we should also save that portion of the surplus necessary to deal with Medicare, even though it is going to run out of money in 10 years. And we have to save it, reform it, but also, in my judgment I'll never forget the people I met in New Hampshire who told me this -- we ought to add a prescription drug benefit to the Medicare program for the elderly people who need it. (Applause.) Now, I believe the Democratic position, which is embraced by the leaders of our party in both Houses of Congress, as well as by our administration, is the right one. If we save 77 percent of this surplus over the next 15 years, we can do two things. We can prepare to save Social Security and Medicare; we'll also pay down the national debt. When I took office, the national debt was one-half our annual income. It had quadrupled in 12 years. I had to spend the first year I put together a budget over 14 cents of every dollar you pay to the federal government in taxes just to make interest payments. Well, now the debt is down to 44 percent of our annual income. But if you do what I'm recommending here, if the Congress will go along and we save 77 percent for 15 years, we will take it down to 7 percent of our income; the debt service will be 2 cents on your taxes, the rest will go to real things. And within 18 years, the United States of America will be out of debt. This is what we should do. (Applause.) Now, in addition to saving Social Security and Medicare, we have other health responsibilities. In my balanced budget there's a long-term care tax credit. We have to make sure that we pass a national patients' bill of rights to support what Governor Shaheen is trying to do here in New Hampshire. (Applause.) We have to pass a bill sponsored by Senators Kennedy and Jeffords to make sure people with disabilities can take full-time jobs without losing their health insurance. (Applause.) And we ought to, while we're helping, deal with the problem of family and work by broadening the number of people eligible for the Family and Medical Leave law. I met people today who said they took advantage of it and what a difference it made for their families. We ought to raise the minimum wage and we ought to pass the initiative I have offered to give $15 billion in private sector capital to rural areas and urban communities who have not yet felt our economic recovery. If we can't fix the poorest areas of America with free enterprise now, we will never get around to doing it. (Applause.) Now, we also have to remember our children. I'm proud of the fact that we have more people in Head Start, kids in Head Start than ever before; that we have 90 percent of our children immunized against serious childhood diseases for the first time; that in the balanced budget law of 1997, five million children became eligible for health insurance -- and thanks to what the Governor has done here with the child health program in New Hampshire, we are finally reaching those children. But we have more to do. I'm proud of the fact that we have opened the doors of college to everyone with these tax benefits, and greater student loans and work-study programs. No serious person believes that our elementary and secondary education in every state, in every community, in every school, is what is necessary to give a world-class education to what is the most diverse student body our country has ever had. Now, look -- this diversity is our meal ticket to the future. In a global economy, the idea that we have children in our schools from every country on Earth, from every culture on Earth, from every religious faith on Earth, all learning what the basic rules of American citizenship are in action every day, and being given a chance to be responsible and to participate in our country, and to learn to relate to each other, in a world that is being torn asunder all across the globe, from Bosnia to the Middle East to the tribal wars of Africa over differences of race and ethnicity and religion -- what we are trying to do is a godsend for our future, economically, politically and, frankly, in terms of just the quality and richness of our lives. But we have to do better with education. (Applause.) We have got to do better with education. We have to finish the job we started last year of hiring 100,000 teachers. We have to pass the bill Congress turned down last year to build and modernize 5,000 schools. I'm tired of going to these schools that can't even be hooked up to the Internet because they're so old. (Applause.) We have to finish the job of hooking all our classrooms and libraries up to the Internet. And thanks to the e-rate that the Vice President and I fought so hard for, $1 billion in discounts will be available this year to our schools, so every school, even poor schools, can afford for their children to hook up to the Internet. (Applause.) And I believe we have to bring a revolution of accountability to our schools. For over 20 years now, I have spent a lot of time in classrooms. I've listened to teachers, I've listened to principals, I've listened to students, I've listened to parents. I can tell you that every challenge in American education has been met by somebody, somewhere, and that we still, on the edge of a new century, this so-called Information Age where people learn what everybody else is doing with blinding speed, we are still not very good at copying from others. The Founding Fathers would be disappointed that school districts still seem to believe that they can't learn as much from others as they ought to. They set up the states as the laboratories of democracy. When I was a governor for 12 years, as I told your Governor, back when I had a life -- when I was a governor for 12 years and I could actually stay here and sit around and talk around this table half the night and drink coffee with you, I was proud of the things that my state did first, but I was prouder of the things my state did second. We have got to install, somehow, the best practices in education that educators tell us work. That's why I believe, based on what I've seen in some of the toughest urban school districts in America, we ought to say when we reauthorize all this federal aid this year, you can have it, but you've got to stop social promotion. But you can't tell the kids they're failures when the system is failing them. You have to turn around the failing schools. And you have to give the children summer school and after-school programs and whatever they need. Look, our kids rank at the top of the world in 4th grade tests in math and science. Then they drop down to the middle in 8th grade tests. And then by the 12th grade, they're ranking near the bottom. Now, the same kids start out -- they didn't get dumber as they traveled through life. That is telling us something about ourselves. We can do better. We have to have higher expectations, higher standards, higher accountability for everyone. But we can't tell the kids that they're failing if the system is failing them. We're not doing them any favor passing them along, but we have to lift them up and give them the support they need. (Applause.) So I ask you to embrace the education agenda; to embrace the saving Social Security, saving Medicare, paying down the debt agenda; to embrace the agenda of bringing economic opportunity to our distressed areas, and expanding health care access and doing more to help people balance work and family, and dealing with the environmental and other challenges I have outlined. I ask you to do it because the best politics -- as has been proven over and over and over again -- is doing the right thing for the American people; saying what you're going to do, and if you get elected, doing it. And dealing with the emergencies that come up, dealing with the challenges as they come up.

EST THE PRESIDENT: Thank you. I want to thank you for a typically reticent Yankee welcome tonight. (Laughter.) It is wonderful to be back. (Applause.) I have very much enjoyed being with Governor Shaheen and with Bill today, and we've had a lot of time to visit. I want you to know that it gives me an enormous amount of pleasure and pride to see the Governor at her task, to know the victories that you have given her, to know that now she has a Democratic state Senate for the first time in 86 years -- (applause) -- and that you made a lot of gains in the House, and that the Democratic Party is moving in the right direction. I thank Jeff and Sophia and all the other officers of the Democratic Party, all the legislators and other people who are here. I am glad to be back. (Applause.) I'd like to thank the people from New Hampshire who have been a part of our administration -- I'm not sure I can remember all of them, so many have been. But I would like to thank Joe Gramazon and Stephanie Powers, Resha McMahon, Terry Shumacher (phonetic spellings.) I talked to him today; I called Terry Schumacher and said, it's just like the Caribbean up here in New Hampshire, you ought to be here. (Laughter.) George Bruno, Dick Sweat so many others. I want to thank -- I brought four people back here tonight who slogged through the snows of New Hampshire with me in BOTTOM EVEN MORE '92 and '92 -- Michael Hooley, Jeff Forbes, Paul Begala and Bruce Lindsey -- and they are glad to be here and we thank them. (Applause.) TOP EVEN - \p - BOTTOM EVEN MORE You know, the last time I was in this building, I believe, was at the Democratic Convention in the campaign of '92. And I remember that the center aisle was open, and everything was crowded, and all the candidates got to have a little demonstration. And in my demonstration, there were a bunch of students who carried a banner down the middle aisle for me; I'll never forget it. And to see this vast crowd here today, celebrating the successes of our party and our nation and your state, is wonderful. You know, I didn't know exactly what I was going to say today when I got here. I remember when I first started coming here, people kind of laughed at me when I said that New Hampshire was a lot like my home: all the experts expected you to send me home. (Laughter.) Instead, you made me feel at home, and I still do. I love it. (Applause.) In 1992, when I came here, when Hillary came here, amidst all the economic problems and personal turmoil, people whose businesses had been closed because their loans were cancelled in some cases, people who had never missed a payment; elderly people who were having to choose between food and medicine; young working families who couldn't buy health insurance because their children had been sick I remember a young girl who talked to me about the pain in her family because her father could not get over the fact that he was unemployed and he could no longer take care of his family. In the middle of that difficult time the people of New Hampshire came out to see me and Hillary and listen to what we had to say. You took us into your homes. You shared your struggles and your dreams. And in so many ways, the story of America in 1991 and 1992 was, for me, the personal histories I heard in New Hampshire. I saw a lot of people today that I met then, that I've tried to keep up with all the times I've come back here since then. I think, of all the things that were said to me today, the things that meant the most were well, there were really two things. First, to know that people are doing better and feel better about their lives, their children's future, our country's future. I got to check in today with Ron and RhondaLee Machos, and I made them the poster family for my struggle for health care access because their oldest child, Ronnie, was born with a heart problem. Today I saw Ronnie and Tristen, his little brother, and Mamma's about to have a third son. But I got a letter from the dad the other day who said, "Little Ronnie is doing exceptionally TOP ODD - \p - BOTTOM ODD MORE well. No problems with his heart. Looks like he needs no further surgery. He scored two goals and got one assist in his last hockey game. That's a long way from being born with a hole in your heart." (Applause.) "Younger son Tristen is seven this year, and quite a pistol" I saw him today "and RhondaLee is pregnant with our third child." Listen to this; this is the point. "One thing we will experience for the first time is health insurance and pregnancy." Those are the kinds of stories I wanted to hear after we had a chance to work together to make America a better place. (Applause.) The other thing I heard that made me feel so good today was that any number of people in various ways said, we stuck with you because you came to us with a detailed program and you did exactly what you said you would do, and it worked. (Applause.) Well, today -- I didn't do it, we did it. You did it. Don't ever forget -- I was in Dover today, you know, where I coined that now famous line that "if you would stick with me I would stick with you until the last dog died." (Applause.) And the people of Dover had any number of humorous things to say about that. (Laughter.) We've seen a lot of dogs killed, but at least the last one is still living. (Laughter.) This dog is limping, but still going. I heard it all. (Laughter and applause.) Here is the point: If you had listened to the political experts, the dog would have died. (Laughter.) But instead you held out a lifeline. You decided that the election should go on. You decided that these ideas, that this new direction for our country deserved a fair hearing among the American people. You embraced our cause. People ask me all the time, well, what if this, that or the other thing had happened and you hadn't become President? All I know is, I have never forgotten as anyone who has worked for me in the White House will tell you the kindness and the toughness, the humanity and the determination of the people of New Hampshire who would not let our campaign and what we want to do together for America die. And I never will. (Applause.) Now, the point of all that is that every time you hear about something good that's happened in America, you ought to say, I was part of that. This is a journey we have taken together. In America, there is not a difference between the government and the people between those who govern and those who let them govern. You gave me permission to do this based on a contract I made with you and the rest of the American people. And it's been quite a wonderful journey. When I came here seven years ago today, we had the New Hampshire primary. The unemployment rate was 7.3 percent. Today, it's 2.9 percent. (Applause.) In the four years before I took office, you lost 41,000 jobs here. In the six years since, you've gained 77,500. (Applause.) In 1992, business failures were increasing by 44 percent every single year; in the last six years they've dropped by nearly three -quarters. In 1992, your welfare rolls were among the fastest -growing in the country; today, they are half what they were on the day I took office. (Applause.) We have seen -- as a lot of your police officers said to me today, we have seen new police officers, new teachers, AmeriCorps volunteers, people benefitting from the earned income tax credit, from the HOPE Scholarship -- which about 26,000 New Hampshire students will take advantage of this year; 32,000 more are taking advantage of the lifetime learning tax cut to pay for their college education, and on and on. This is what campaigns are really about. (Applause.) And the test is, do we use the authority and the power and the responsibility given to us by the people to advance their cause. I said over and over and over again in New Hampshire in 1992 and I say again tonight, I was raised to believe that no person can sit on the sidelines and knowingly permit any of his or her fellow citizens to live under burdens that do not permit them to live up to the fullest of their God -given capacity. I always believed if we could create a country in which there was opportunity for every citizen responsible enough to take advantage of it; and if we could convince people that we really have to be one community, that we will never be all that we could be unless we care about our neighbors and work together and realize that our welfare is caught up in the welfare of those who may seem very different from us -- but underneath it all the diversity of America is our greatest strength, as long as we recognize that what unites us is more important than anything that could divide us. I believe that and I still believe that tonight. (Applause.) What I want to say is I believe the reason the Democratic Party is coming back all over America is that more and more Americans believe that -- including independents and Republican -- that we ought to be about opportunity, responsibility and community. We ought to be looking for ways to put people over politics, to put unity over division. It is not an accident that we've gone from a $290 -billion deficit to a $70 -billion surplus with a bigger one coming this year (applause) that we have the longest economic expansion in peacetime in the history of the country and the lowest peacetime unemployment rate since 1957. This is not an accident. It happened because people like you believed in and embraced certain ideas, and then went out and worked like crazy when the chains were taken off of you to make America work again. And you should take pride in that. Pride not only in your own work, but pride in the work you did as citizens, in the work you did in campaigns, in the work you did in talking to your friends and neighbors. This is what makes America work when the people are put first, when the dreams and the hopes of the American people are put first, and when the problems are tackled instead of just talked about. That's politics at its best and that's what this building, that convention, all those years ago and this night will always mean to me. (Applause.) Now, I want to get off this rather passionate political note and say something completely dry and academic, something completely factual, purely historical, wholly nonpolitical. Nobody had more to do with the decisions we made and success we've enjoyed than Vice President Al Gore. (Applause.) I understand he may have been around here recently. He wasn't with me in '92, until I became the nominee. But in '93, as he never tires of telling me, he cast a decisive vote on the economic plan that began to bring our country back. And, as he always says, whenever he votes, we win. (Laughter and applause.) I do want to say, you know, I have been very fortunate in the people who have served in our Cabinet. I once had a group of presidential scholars at the White House, and a gentleman who taught at Harvard said, Mr. President, one of the reasons your administration has been successful is that you have the most loyal Cabinet since Thomas Jefferson's second administration. It was an amazing statement. He said, I'm a historian, I know. We have all these people who work in the White House every day, day in and day out, whose names you don't know, who never get any glory, who deserve a lot of this credit. We also have a great team of people around the country working. But I have been very blessed by the work especially of the First Lady and the Vice President, and you all know it. (Applause.) So I came here tonight to say thank you, to reminisce just a little bit, to thank you for Hillary and for me and for all of our administration but not just to say, thank you. Because if you remember in '92, every event we did, every home we visited, every town hall meeting we had that were bursting at the seams that's the first time I knew I had a chance to get elected President. Actually, I went to Keene and they said, we put you in a place that will hold 150 and if 50 people show up, don't be embarrassed, it's a good turnout; it's New Hampshire, nobody knows who the heck you are. (Laughter.) And 400 showed up and I said, holy moly, something's going on. Oh, by the way, Mayor Pat Russell and her husband, Ron, are celebrating their 49th wedding anniversary tonight. Let's give them a hand there. Happy anniversary. (Applause.) So I wanted to do that. But remember this: We were really worried about making New Hampshire and America and the lives of ordinary citizens work again. I mean, people just wanted things to work. Do you remember, five out of the seven biggest banks had failed? I mean, people wanted things to work. Okay, things are working now. So here's the most important thing I came here to say. I came to deliver on what I really owe you tonight. When things start working and people have been through all that you have been through, the temptation is to stop at what we've already said and done. Pat yourself on the back, feel good about it, kick back, relax, wait for something else to happen. And I came here to tell you tonight that that would be wrong. That would violate the ideas and the principles on which we campaigned, you and I, in 1992 and upon which we were returned to office in 1996. Why? Because, yes, America is working, but we are living in a very dynamic world where things that happen beyond our borders can affect how you live in every community in New Hampshire and throughout this country, and when, you know as well as I do, that we have large, long -term unmet challenges facing us in the century that is now less than a year ahead. And so I ask you to think tonight about what we must do not only to celebrate what's been done and think about the next election, but we need to think if we want to retain the support of the American people from the presidency, if we want to get it back in the Congress, if we want to keep the Democratic Party moving in the right direction in New Hampshire, we have to do a good job for the American people and the people of this state every day for the next two years. That is the best politics -- to do what is right. (Applause.) Now, I will not keep you through a whole recitation of my State of the Union speech (laughter) -- but I want you to know that I worked hard on that for months, and it reflects the thinking that I have brought to this job for years. I prayed in the early years of the presidency when we were bailing water out of the ship that we would one day right ourselves and America would be working again, and as a people we could be called to think about these large, long -term challenges. And we would be making a terrible mistake as a political party if we played politics with them, looked only to the next election, and forgot that all of us are charged with the responsibility now that America is working to have America moving forward. What are those challenges? I'll just mention two or three: The aging of America. The challenge of balancing work and family. As more and more people go into the work force and more and more parents are working, the challenge of giving every child a world -class education. (Applause.) The challenge of dealing with our environmental difficulties while continuing to grow the economy, and living more at harmony with ourselves and our neighbors on this planet, and the challenge of dealing with America's obligations to lead the world toward greater peace and freedom and prosperity. I met a lot of people here with Irish roots tonight, like me, who thanked me for the role that I have been honored to play in the Irish peace process. (Applause.) We are struggling today to keep a new conflict from breaking out in the Balkans. We are struggling today to deal with the challenges of chemical and biological weapons so that our children won't have to face them. We are struggling today to help our friends in democratic Russia keep their democracy alive and restore their economic health. And one of the things that I did when I was in New Hampshire that I tell you I believe more strongly today than I did then is to say, folks, there is no longer a dividing line between domestic policy and foreign policy. The person in the remotest, smallest village in northern New Hampshire cannot be unmindful of America's responsibilities and opportunities in this great wide world. We have to fulfill them and the Democratic Party should lead the way. (Applause.) So what does that mean? Let me just mention two things. Let's talk about aging and education, the old and the young. The number of people over 65 is going to double by 2030. People are living longer. The average life expectancy in America now is already over 76. By the time the young people in this room who are under 30 tonight reach their later years their life expectancy, in all probability, will be somewhere in the mid -80s. Now, what does all that mean? First of all, let's not kid ourselves, this is a high -class problem -- and the older I get, the better this problem looks. (Laughter.) So I don't understand all this hand -wringing, this is a good deal, you know? This is a high -class problem. It is a tribute to our health system, to healthier behaviors, to scientific discovery -- and also a fact of the baby boom. Now, what we have to do is to figure out how, when the baby boom retires and medical costs escalate in the Medicare program, which will happen before the baby boom retires, we can preserve our obligation to our seniors without bankrupting their kids and grandkids. This is an issue which affects everyone, the aging of America. More and more people will take care of their parents as they get older, and may need some help doing it. More and more people, if we don't do our job, will feel the squeeze between their parents' retirement needs and their children's education needs. That's why I have said my first priority in dealing with this budget surplus we have waited for 30 years and we have worked for six years, after 12 years in which they quadrupled the debt of the country -- my first priority is to save Social Security and Medicare and pay down the debt, to strengthen America for the 21st century. (Applause.) Now, we will have a real policy debate with our friends in the Republican Party on that issue. They will agree with us that we should save the surplus necessary for Social Security, and then they'll disagree with us on what the best way to spend it is. And that's good; that's a high -class problem. That's the kind of honest political debate we ought to have. But they will not agree that we should also save that portion of the surplus necessary to deal with Medicare, even though it is going to run out of money in 10 years. And we have to save it, reform it, but also, in my judgment I'll never forget the people I met in New Hampshire who told me this we ought to add a prescription drug benefit to the Medicare program for the elderly people who need it. (Applause.) Now, I believe the Democratic position, which is embraced by the leaders of our party in both Houses of Congress, as well as by our administration, is the right one. If we save 77 percent of this surplus over the next 15 years, we can do two things. We can prepare to save Social Security and Medicare; we'll also pay down the national debt. When I took office, the national debt was one -half our annual income. It had quadrupled in 12 years. I had to spend the first year I put together a budget over 14 cents of every dollar you pay to the federal government in taxes just to make interest payments. Well, now the debt is down to 44 percent of our annual income. But if you do what I'm recommending here, if the Congress will go along and we save 77 percent for 15 years, we will take it down to 7 percent of our income; the debt service will be 2 cents on your taxes, the rest will go to real things. And within 18 years, the United States of America will be out of debt. This is what we should do. (Applause.) Now, in addition to saving Social Security and Medicare, we have other health responsibilities. In my balanced budget there's a long -term care tax credit. We have to make sure that we pass a national patients' bill of rights to support what Governor Shaheen is trying to do here in New Hampshire. (Applause.) We have to pass a bill sponsored by Senators Kennedy and Jeffords to make sure people with disabilities can take full -time jobs without losing their health insurance. (Applause.) And we ought to, while we're helping, deal with the problem of family and work by broadening the number of people eligible for the Family and Medical Leave law. I met people today who said they took advantage of it and what a difference it made for their families. We ought to raise the minimum wage and we ought to pass the initiative I have offered to give $15 billion in private sector capital to rural areas and urban communities who have not yet felt our economic recovery. If we can't fix the poorest areas of America with free enterprise now, we will never get around to doing it. (Applause.) Now, we also have to remember our children. I'm proud of the fact that we have more people in Head Start, kids in Head Start than ever before; that we have 90 percent of our children immunized against serious childhood diseases for the first time; that in the balanced budget law of 1997, five million children became eligible for health insurance -- and thanks to what the Governor has done here with the child health program in New Hampshire, we are finally reaching those children. But we have more to do. I'm proud of the fact that we have opened the doors of college to everyone with these tax benefits, and greater student loans and work -study programs. No serious person believes that our elementary and secondary education in every state, in every community, in every school, is what is necessary to give a world -class education to what is the most diverse student body our country has ever had. Now, look -- this diversity is our meal ticket to the future. In a global economy, the idea that we have children in our schools from every country on Earth, from every culture on Earth, from every religious faith on Earth, all learning what the basic rules of American citizenship are in action every day, and being given a chance to be responsible and to participate in our country, and to learn to relate to each other, in a world that is being torn asunder all across the globe, from Bosnia to the Middle East to the tribal wars of Africa over differences of race and ethnicity and religion -- what we are trying to do is a godsend for our future, economically, politically and, frankly, in terms of just the quality and richness of our lives. But we have to do better with education. (Applause.) We have got to do better with education. We have to finish the job we started last year of hiring 100,000 teachers. We have to pass the bill Congress turned down last year to build and modernize 5,000 schools. I'm tired of going to these schools that can't even be hooked up to the Internet because they're so old. (Applause.) We have to finish the job of hooking all our classrooms and libraries up to the Internet. And thanks to the e -rate that the Vice President and I fought so hard for, $1 billion in discounts will be available this year to our schools, so every school, even poor schools, can afford for their children to hook up to the Internet. (Applause.) And I believe we have to bring a revolution of accountability to our schools. For over 20 years now, I have spent a lot of time in classrooms. I've listened to teachers, I've listened to principals, I've listened to students, I've listened to parents. I can tell you that every challenge in American education has been met by somebody, somewhere, and that we still, on the edge of a new century, this so -called Information Age where people learn what everybody else is doing with blinding speed, we are still not very good at copying from others. The Founding Fathers would be disappointed that school districts still seem to believe that they can't learn as much from others as they ought to. They set up the states as the laboratories of democracy. When I was a governor for 12 years, as I told your Governor, back when I had a life -- when I was a governor for 12 years and I could actually stay here and sit around and talk around this table half the night and drink coffee with you, I was proud of the things that my state did first, but I was prouder of the things my state did second. We have got to install, somehow, the best practices in education that educators tell us work. That's why I believe, based on what I've seen in some of the toughest urban school districts in America, we ought to say when we reauthorize all this federal aid this year, you can have it, but you've got to stop social promotion. But you can't tell the kids they're failures when the system is failing them. You have to turn around the failing schools. And you have to give the children summer school and after -school programs and whatever they need. Look, our kids rank at the top of the world in 4th grade tests in math and science. Then they drop down to the middle in 8th grade tests. And then by the 12th grade, they're ranking near the bottom. Now, the same kids start out -- they didn't get dumber as they traveled through life. That is telling us something about ourselves. We can do better. We have to have higher expectations, higher standards, higher accountability for everyone. But we can't tell the kids that they're failing if the system is failing them. We're not doing them any favor passing them along, but we have to lift them up and give them the support they need. (Applause.) So I ask you to embrace the education agenda; to embrace the saving Social Security, saving Medicare, paying down the debt agenda; to embrace the agenda of bringing economic opportunity to our distressed areas, and expanding health care access and doing more to help people balance work and family, and dealing with the environmental and other challenges I have outlined. I ask you to do it because the best politics as has been proven over and over and over again is doing the right thing for the American people; saying what you're going to do, and if you get elected, doing it. And dealing with the emergencies that come up, dealing with the challenges as they come up. In 1998, for the first time since 1822, the party of the President in the sixth year of his presidency gained seats in the House of Representatives. (Applause.) Now, I believe with all my heart it was because our party went out there with a simple message. They said, our concern is you; our commitment is TOP ODD - \p - BOTTOM ALL to your future and your children. Vote for us and we will save Social Security first, before we squander this surplus. Vote for us and we will modernize those thousands of schools. Vote for us and we will pass that patients' bill of rights. Vote for us and we'll get interest rates down, pay the debt down, keep this economy going. We have an agenda. And it's an agenda that will deal with the long -term problems as well as the short -term problems of America. That's what the Democratic Party represents now opportunity for all, responsibility from all, a community of all Americans. We no longer have a country, as I said seven years ago, where I worry about me, you worry about you, they worry about them. I didn't want that then and I don't see that today. We know we know we are all in this together. We know that we'll all do better if we do the responsible thing, if all our neighbors have opportunities and if we live together as citizens in one community. You have all helped to make that the new reality of 21st century America. I want you to be proud of it, but not to rest on it. Help your Governor. Help your legislators. Realize the dreams of your children. Don't run away from the work of governing. Stay with the real things that real people care about and the politics will take care of themselves. Thank you. God bless you. And on to tomorrow. Thank you. (Applause.) END 9:00 P.M. EST
