What
do our opponents mean when they apply to us the label, “Liberal”? If by
“Liberal” they mean, as they want people to believe, someone who is soft in his
policies abroad, who is against local government, and who is unconcerned with
the taxpayer's dollar, then the record of this party and its members
demonstrate that we are not that kind of “Liberal.” But, if by a “Liberal,”
they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new
ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the
people - their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil
rights, and their civil liberties - someone who believes that we can break
through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if
that is what they mean by a “Liberal,” then I'm proud to say that I'm a
“Liberal.”
