 The United States Congress, our senior Senator John Tower, is responsible for that. A great Texan, George Bush, a man that we know, ladies and gentlemen, the Vice President of the United States of America. Being back in Texas is that the man I was sitting next to, I've heard this few remarks with a confession, I watched the Democratic Convention on Television. Not all of it, just a little. And the pessimism out there in San Francisco was absolutely incredible. I'm surprised they didn't name the Moscone Center the Temple of Doom. One other thing they didn't mention out of that Temple of Doom is there are more Americans working today than at any time in the- Take up where the Vice President left off on one point, at their convention, the leadership of the Democratic Party gave Texas the back of their hand. Well, we've come to give you a message from our heart. We care about where you will be welcome and appreciated. On one line you put down how much you'd earned, and on the other line it said send it. But they offer a three-point program about America. Well, permit me to make three small points of my own. Point one, those responsible for punishing America with record inflation, red broad and phony excuses about malaise are the last people who should give sermenets about misery, unfairness and compassion. Point two, today they offer new realism. Incentives, incentives, initiative and innovation are sparking a revolution in America. We see it here in Austin with your great commitment to technological leadership. But we mustn't stop until we simplify the entire tax system, until we make taxes more fair, easy to understand and most important, until we bring your personal tax rates further down. Because if we bring them down enough, the underground economy will shrink, the world will beat a path to our door, and no one will be able to hold America back. The steps we've taken to reverse years of neglecting our military security. Shameful neglect. Is America better off than she was before, I'm just going to assume that you don't want to go back to the days of America being second best. Let's keep going forward together, thank you and God bless you all.
