Education: "I believe that every boy and girl in this great land has a right to all the education he or she can use... I intend to work to make this right a reality."

Civil Rights: "The promise of America is a simple promise: Every person shall share in the blessings of this land."

The Presidency: "I hope it may be said a hundred years from now, that by working together we helped to make our country more just for all its people . . . I believe at least it will be said that we tried."
