CLOSING WEEK -- SPEECH LANGUAGE
We are about to elect the last President of the 20th Century. But in many ways, this
campaign has been our first discussion about how we move forward into the 21st Century. ·
During this last week of the campaign, President Clinton is asking the American people to
think hard about our central goal as a nation: To prepare our country to meet the challenges
of that new century.
The President believes the right way to meet our goal is to help all our people have
the tools to master this moment of change, so they can make the most of their own lives. And
that means meeting four big challenges we face as a people:
First, we must keep our economy growing steady and strong by finishing the job of
balancing the budget while we preserve our values.
Second, we must provide our children with the best education in the world, raising
standards for teachers and students and making two years of college as universal. as high
school.
Third, we must end the cycle of dependency, family breakdown and crime by finishing
our historic efforts to reform welfare.
And fourth, we must strengthen our families by helping all Americans succeed at
home and at work, in safety and security.
On November 5, the American people will face their moment to decide on the crucial
questions of our time: Who can best maintain our strong economy; provide the best education
in the world; finish welfare reform; and build strong families? Those are the ways we will
build our bridge to the 21st Century, and that is what this election is all about.
