Announcement Speech by Patrick J. Buchanan at the Manchester Institute of Arts and Sciences on Monday, March 20, 1995.
"In the history of nations, we Americans are the freedom party. We are the first people, the only nation dedicated to the proposition that all men and women are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with the inalienable right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. And nothing can stop to stop us from going forward to a new era of greatness, in a new century about to begin, if we only go forward together, as one people, one nation, under God.
So to these ends, and for these purposes, I humbly, but proudly, declare my candidacy for the Presidency of the United States."
