Clinton talked about her small business owner father and the values he instilled in her, and she talked about her mother, and what she instilled in her.

She never doubted this country would meet its problems.

Clinton talked about Sputnik and the emphasis her fifth-grade teacher placed on studying math and science.

She joked about the Presidential Fitness Awards (JFK's pet project). She never doubted we would get to the moon and deal with race problems. "We need to get back into setting goals."
