In 1980, when George Bush ran for president against Ronald Reagan, Bush didn't agree with Reagan on anything. Bush opposed the Human Life Amendment. Bush opposed the Balanced Budget Amendment. And you remember what he called Ronald Reagan's tax cut plan. Now Bush is running again, and this time he can't agree with Ronald Reagan enough. He's changed his stand on everything. That's not strong leadership. The answer is dole for president. The answer is dole for president.
