smith senator kennedy, the things that senator kennedy has said many of us can agree with. there is no question but that we cannot discuss our internal affairs in the united states without recognizing that they have a tremendous bearing on our international position. there is no question but that this nation cannot stand still because we are in a deadly competition, a competition not only with the men in the kremlin, but the men in peking. we're ahead in this competition. senator kennedy, i think, is implied. but when you're in a race, the only way to stay ahead is to move ahead. and i subscribe completely to the spirit that senator kennedy has expressed tonight, the spirit the united states should move ahead. where then do we disagree? i think we disagree on the implication of his remarks tonight and on the statements that he has made on many occasions during his campaign to the effect that the united states has been still. we heard tonight, for example, the statements made that our growth in national product last year was the lowest of any industrial nation in the world.
