I think we need to keep Bill Clinton in the White House. If Dole got elected along with the Congress and Senate, we would see some radical things done that would hurt millions of people.
The last time the Congress and president were Republican any length of time was 1920 until 1932. We had Harding, Coolidge and Hoover. I remember what happened: A giant Depression. Wages were as low as 50 to 75 cents per day. Many people lost everything they had.
If Bob Dole cut taxes and balanced the budget, he would have to destory many programs that people depend on.
I am 78 years old. I am not crazy about Clinton, but he's all we have.
