Mayor Giuliani spoke at length to a packed auditorium and full press section about his views and hopes for the future of America, then engaged in a question and answer session with students and the public. Giuliani used his speech to talk about the importance of experience in a presidential candidate, highlighting his time spent as mayor of New York City. He explains how his life experiences would aid his presidential responsibilities. He describes what he would look for in a vice-presidential running mate by giving an anecdote about his breakfast with former President Ronald Reagan on the morning he was shot, and explaining how that experience would impact his choice. Mayor Giuliani made a point of talking about "doing the things that everyone thinks are impossible," and how he plans to accomplish them, both in domestic and international affairs.

In the midst of midterm examinations, and with a student body anxious to return home for fall break, Saint Anselm students joined with members of the public this morning to attend a question and answer period with Republican Presidential candidate Gov. Mitt Romney. The New Hampshire Institute of Politics auditorium was transformed for the town-hall style session, with Romney positioned in the midst of at least four different classes of students. In the rear of the room, press risers were filled with journalists from local newspapers, regional television stations, and the national media. Carl Cameron of Fox News was stationed outside the NHIOP all morning, utilizing the parking lot as a temporary television studio for reports from New Hampshire. Students took center stage all morning as New Hampshire Institute of Politics Student Ambassadors were on hand to greet Gov. Romney as he arrived in a motorcade shortly before 10 a.m. Once inside, Romney was introduced to the crowd by Greg Wallace '10. During the question and answer period, Gov. Romney took several questions from students of varying majors who attended the forum. Several staff members on the Romney campaign who attended the event were also familiar faces to the Saint Anselm campus, as a number of current staff members are also college alumni. Following another question and answer session with the assembled media outside the front entrance to the NHIOP, Romney caught a number of students off guard as he passed through the cafe as he headed for the motorcade to his next event. Taking the moment in stride, two lunching students captured the attention of the governor, obtaining a quick handshake before the candidate and campaign staff departed.

Sam Brownback of Kansas, who spoke at the New Hampshire Institute of Politics on September 4, 2007. During his talk, Sen. Brownback outlined his proposal for reforming the Social Security System, which includes allowing people to put five percent of their taxable income into private accounts. In his plan, workers would have the choice to remain with the current system or have the ability to save and invest for their own retirement. After his speech, the senator joined students and faculty for an informal lunch in Davison Hall where discussion continued on Sen. Brownback's proposed changes to Social Security as well as other issues (read related Union Leader article). William Shipman, co-author of Promises to Keep: Saving Social Security's Dream," and co-chair of the Cato Institute's Project on Social Security Choice also spoke during Sen. Brownback's appearance at the college.

After starting his day with a 5K ldquo;fun runrdquo; with supporters in downtown Manchester, republican presidential hopeful and former governor of Arkansas Mike Huckabee discussed health care with nursing students. He visited Saint Anselm College on April 17. Gov. Huckabee spoke about the nationrsquo;s health crisis as well as his own experience losing 110 pounds after being diagnosed with diabetes. ldquo;If I can regain my own health, so can this country, but this country better do it in a hurry,rdquo; said Huckabee, who wrote about his experience in his book Quit Digging Your Own Grave With a Knife and Fork. Huckabee spoke about a healthcare system that is broken. ldquo;We have a completely upside-down healthcare system in this country where we train doctors to treat disease, not prevent it, and reimburse people to be sick, not well.rdquo; He also focused on childhood obesity and what he called a pandemic that is killing kids. ldquo;Wersquo;re raising the first generation of kids who wonrsquo;t live as long as their parents or grandparents,rdquo; said Huckabee. He urged students to ldquo;go change the stinking system and make it right,rdquo; but cautioned that real change would happen over a generation, not in a four-year presidential term. Huckabee cited changing attitudes toward seat-belt use, litter, smoking, and drunk driving as examples of how societal views have change over time. In the short term, he advocates making health care less expensive by enacting medical liability reform, shifting to electronic medical records, making health insurance policies more portable, and helping people open health savings accounts. Often displaying a great sense of humor and wit, Huckabee described his own efforts to stay healthy by offering two nutrition rules: ldquo;If it comes through a car window, itrsquo;s not food. And if it wasnrsquo;t food 100 years ago, itrsquo;s not food, itrsquo;s a product.rdquo; As part of our ongoing series, we make the speeches of presidential candidates who visit the New Hampshire Institute of Politics available to you.
