First director of the jfk library. He was a member of the Kennedy Administration. It is a special pride that he would share it would glow in him, in his advocacy for the importance of the Kennedy Administration and the many treasures we had inside our building. I love this photograph of the building, it is a nighttime vision. For those who have not yet come to see us, i believe the library is inspirational in and of itself and fitting for the life and times and ideas of an inspirational president , the 35th president , president kennedy. If you are able to come to visit us, you will see this building. We are right on Columbia Point facing towards Boston Harbor and it is a sight that will elevate your thoughts, and as you think about what the nation is all about and your role in it and whether you would answer president kennedys call to service, which he issued in his inaugural address, ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country. All of those words re
I am bernard shaw of cnn. Cable news network. My colleagues are ann compton, of abc news. Margaret warner of newsweek magazine. And andrew mitchell, of nbc news. The candidates are Vice President george bush, republican nominee and governor michael dukakis. For the next 90 minutes we will be questioning the candidates by representatives of the two campaigns, however there are no restrictions on the questions that my colleague and i can ask this evening and the candidates have no prior knowledge of our questions. By agreement between the candidates, the first question goes to governor jackies. You have two minutes to respond. Governor if Kitty Dukakis were raped and murdered, which you favored and irrevocably Death Penalty for the killer. No i dont, bernard. And i think you know that i post Death Penalty, all of my life. I dont see any evidence, and i think there are better and more effective ways to deal with crime. We have done so in my own state, and its one of the reasons why we hav
But im not going to make decisions that i think are wrong for america. New question, mr. President. Do you believe that diplomacy and sanctions can resolve the nuclear problems with north korea and iran, taking them in any order you would like. North korea, first i do. Let me say i certainly hope so. Before i was sworn in, the policy of this government was to have bri lateral negotiations with north korea, and we signed an agreement with north korea that my administration found out that was not being honored by the north koreans. So i decided that a better way to approach the issue was to get other nations involved, just besides us. And across texas, crawford and i agreed a free north Korean Peninsula was in his interest and our interest and the worlds interest. So we began a new dialogue in north korea, one that included not only the United States but now china and china has a lot of influence over north korea. In some ways more than we do. As well we included south korean, japan and
[ applause ] good evening, mr. President , senator kerry. As determined by a coin toss, the first question goes to you, senator kerry. You have two minutes. Do you believe that you could do a better job than president bush in preventing another 9 11type terrorist attack on the United States . Yes, i do. But before i answer further, let me thank you for moderating. I want to thank the university of miami for hosting us, and i know the president will join me in welcoming all of florida to this debate. Youve been through the roughest weeks anybody could imagine. Our hearts go out to you, and we admire your pluck and perseve perseveran perseverance. I can make america safer than president bush has made us. And i believe president bush and i both love our country equally, but we just have a different set of convictions about how you make america safe. I believe america is safest and strongest when we are leading the world and we are leading strong alliances. Ill never give a veto to any cou
