I ended the month

[qrst297]

I ended the month by signing a health-care appropriations bill that
ended so-called drive-bydeliveries, by guaranteeing a minimum of
forty-eight hours of coverage to mothers and newborns; provided

assistance to children of Vietnam veterans who were born with
spina bifida, as I mentioned earlier; and required the same 'Angel oil

with the commitment both parties had made to do nothing to

Washington, with

the budget and to protect the American flag, and forbid restrictions on
voluntary school
in health insurance policies for mental and physical illness. The
breakthrough in mental-hcare was a tribute not only to the work of
mental-health advocacy groups but also to the personal efforts of
Senator Pete Domenici of New Mexico, Senator Paul Wellstone of
Minnesota, and Tipper Gore, whom I had named my official advisor on
mental-health policI spent the first two days of October with
Netanyahu, Arafat, and King Hussein,'Family oil painting'
(http://www.oilpaintingscn.com/family-oil-painting-894.html) , who had
agreed to join us to try to get the peace process back on track. At the
end of our talks, Arand Netanyahu asked me to field all the press
questions. I said that while we had not yet resolved the tunnel issue,
both sides had agreed to begin immediate talks in the region with a
view toward ending the violence and returning to the peace process. In
our meeting, Netanyahu had reaffirmed his commitment to implement the
agreements made before he took office, including the withdrawal of
Israeli troops from Hebron. Not long a
change the status quo in Jerusalem until it was negotiated. On the
third, I was back on the campaign trail again, stoppin
first presidential debate with Bob Dole in Hartford, Connecticut, on
October 6. Our whole team was there, including my media advisor,
Michael Sheehan. George Mitchell came in to play Bob Dole in the mock
debates. He cleaned my clock at first, but I got better with practice.
In between sessions, Erskine Bowles and I got in a round of golf. My
golf game was getting better. In June, I had finally scored below 80
for the first time, but I still couldn��t beatErskine when his game was
on.
The debate itself turned out to be civilized, and educational for
people who were interesour different philosophies of government and
positions on the issues. There were a few fireworks when Dole hit me
for scaring seniors with my ads criticizing the Medicare cuts in the
Republican budget I had vetoed, and he repeated his claim from his
convention speech that I had filled the administration with young
elitists who ��never grew up, never did anythingreal, never sacrificed,
never suffered, and never learned�� and who wanted ��to fund with
yearnings their dubious and self-serving schemes.�� I shot back that
one of the young ��elitists�� who worked for me in the White House had
grown up in a house trailer, and as for the chargethat I was too
liberal, ��that��s what their party always drags out when they get in a
tight racIt��s sort of their golden oldie . . . I just don��t think that
dog will hunt anymore.�� The second debate was scheduled ten days later
in San D
separate squares in honor of people who had died; two of those
commemorated were friendof Hillary��s and mine. I was gratified that
the death rate from AIDS was coming down, and I was determined to keep
pushing for more research to develop lifesaving medicines. Mickey
Kantor had negotiated a town hall format for the San Diego debate. On
the sixteenth, citizens at the University of San Diego asked good
questions, and Dole and I answered thewithout hitting each other until
the end. In his closing statement, Dole appealed to his base, reminding
people that I opposed term limits as well as constitutional amendments
