"Because of our insistence upon adequacy and efficiency, our country is, over-all, the strongest power on earth, both militarily and economically. evertheless, America's unchanging goal for decades has been the pursuit of peace - through negotiation from a position of strength, in concert with other nations that share our ideals. ... Republicans believe that America is tired of a constantly growing debt - with annual bills for interest alone well over nine billion dollars. We want to stop the cowardly habit of passing our own obligations as a mortgage to our children. ... In the great and divinely-ordained sweep of time, it is our children who live at the forward edge of history. The future belongs to them and to those who are to follow. We must not by our actions or inaction today, tarnish the bright prospects for that future." | |
