Dean 1998 campaign SNIP...."In this campaign he is the defender of social programs, the champion of children. "The central issue in this campaign is not the size of government. It's how much compassion the government has," said Dean in Thursday's debate here in Bellows Falls. "The role of government is making life a little more fair."
I like this statement. It says a lot about his character.
Source from JetJaguar: October 3, 1998, Saturday, BC cycle SECTION: State and Regional LENGTH: 795 words HEADLINE: A weekly perspective on Vermont affairs BYLINE: By CHRISTOPHER GRAFF, Associated Press Writer DATELINE: BELLOWS FALLS, Vt. This was in response to my asking about the statement about him that is making the rounds that he tried to cut benefits to the blind and disabled,etc. The quote is from this reporter, and no attribution. Still looking for that. Then in the next paragraph is the fair government statement by Dean. Still hoping for proof on that statement about the blind and disabled.
