But there were so many more votes-for me, for Mr. Every time I would go to a State, I look at the voting records from '92 and I see that there are whole States or congressional districts where President Bush, for example, in winning the election in 1988, with 54 percent of the vote, got exactly the same vote in 1992 in that congressional district, didn't lose any votes. That's really what's going to turn it, who shows up to vote.

One of the things that we are hearing, as I travel across the country and we get calls into Black Entertainment Television, is a concern of African-Americans that perhaps, particularly with what's on the line, Democrats haven't been reaching out to blacks as they hoped. Let me ask you, with less than now a week away from the elections, you've been on the stump for the last week and a half and will leave us today and continue-and I suspect right down to the last days. First, I get my crack at you, before we turn it over to these folks. They will be discussing the President's domestic policy agenda as it concerns the black community.
