Transcription
We live in a tough competitive world, but we're not going to win by just shaking our fists at our foreign competitors. We've got to roll up our sleeves and put our American ingenuity to work. We've got to modernize our factories and retrain our workers and educate our kids. We've got to get serious about daycare and drug abuse and health care. And we've got to get American corporations to invest in our future, not in fast buck takeover deals. America took on the world before, and we won. And if I'm president, we're going to do it again.
