PRAISE FOR LEADERS

With the horrible tragedy in Oklahoma City and the new activity of the Republican Party, President Bill Jefferson Clinton is looking more presidential all the time.

The president has taken command in a very responsible way that portrays a president confident and determined. There is no doubt that the nation is blessed to have four such brilliant leaders at the top at one time - Clinton, Gore, Dole and Gingrich.

There is a balance of power loaded with an abundance of intellect and determination ready to develop good and lasting things for the United States of America.

Yes, these four brilliant men, working together, can accomplish great things for our nation.

We need them all just where they are, and let's keep them there and get the job done.
