Poverty Has Many Roots, But The Tap

A Third Place To Build The Great Society Is In The Classrooms Of America. There Your Children's Lives Will Be Shaped. Our Society Will Not Be Great Until Every Young Mind Is Set Free To Scan The Farthest Reaches Of Thought And Imagination. We Are Still Far From That Goal.

We Will Not Have Served The Water Needs Of Americans If We Meet Only The Requirements Of Today's Population. A Prudent Nation Must Look Ahead And Plan For Tomorrow.

Way Back Last Summer I Asked Some Of The Most Outstanding Educational Minds In This Nation To Tackle This Problem. I Gave Them A Single Instruction: Find Out How We Can Best Invest Each Education Dollar So That It Will Do The Most Good. Your Support And The Support Of Every Leading Education Group Proves That They Did Their Job Better Than I Had Hoped, Because For The First Time We Have Succeeded In Finding Goals Which Unite Us Rather Than Divide Us.

I Believe We Can Continue The Great Society While We Fight In Vietnam.

We Did Not Choose To Be The Guardians Of The Gate, But There Is No One Else.
