http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/3528649.stmI believe that in 2004, one united Democratic Party, we can and we will win this election. And we will build one America of freedom and of fairness for all...
We will renew our alliances and build new alliances because they are essential to the final victory and success of the war on terror. The Bush administration has run the most inept, reckless, arrogant and ideological foreign policy in the modern history of our country and we will reverse that course.
This president has said again and again that he wants to run on national security. Well, if George Bush wants to make national security the central issue of the campaign of 2004, I have three words for him, that I know he understands - bring it on.
This campaign is about the big issues and the great challenges that we face as a nation. It is about our generation's opportunity to step up and to follow in the footsteps of the greatest generation and all those who have defined the history of our nation. Our opponents can't campaign on jobs or health care or fiscal responsibility.
