...Better than any of the other candidates presently seeking the Democratic nomination, Gore has the stature, the experience, the single-minded focus, the popular appeal and a record to compare what a Bush vs. a Gore administration would produce.
A quick review of their records reveals that Gore served on a team that stimulated the economy. The Bush administration still has no sound economic policy. After two tax cuts and the Federal Reserve Board's perennial lowering of the prime interest rate, we still have over 22 million Americans out of work, and citizens needing extended unemployment compensation benefits are at an all time high. Even white-collar unemployment is skyrocketing.
Thank God that Social Security benefits did not go into a stock market that has lost over four trillion dollars since Bush moved into the White House. And we did need a ''lockbox.''
Gore would give more than lip service to ''not leaving any child behind.'' Education and preparation to be gainfully employed in our high-tech society is something that he would lead with spirit, conviction and governmental funding.
