    Remarks in Pottstown, Pennsylvania
    July 9, 2004

        Thank you all very much for coming out to say hello. I'm honored to
    be here. I'm here to ask for your vote. I'm campaigning because I want
    America to be a safer place, a stronger place, and a better place.
        It's such an honor to be in the great State of Pennsylvania, and
    it's such an honor to represent the greatest country on the face of the
    Earth. Thanks for coming out to say hello. May God bless you all, and
    may God continue to bless the United States of America.

    Note: The President spoke at 1:41 p.m. A tape was not available for
