Pay More Attention to the Economy
By BOB DOLE

Published: March 28, 2004


The good news for President Bush this year is that the economy is looking up on his watch, too. All the major indicators are moving in the right direction. America has enjoyed nine consecutive quarters of economic growth. In the second half of 2003, the economy grew at the fastest rate in nearly 20 years. Meanwhile, inflation is down and interest rates are at historic lows. The result is that ownership of homes and automobiles is at a record high.

Creating new jobs remains a problem, but even those numbers are headed up. Since August 364,000 jobs have been added. The current unemployment rate is lower than the decade averages for the 1970's, 80's and 90's. Even the stock markets, which presaged the 2001 recession when they began falling in 2000, are adding value. Although both are down slightly so far this year, in 2003 the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose by 25 percent and the Nasdaq by almost 50 percent.

And here's the kicker: some economic indicators are even more favorable now than they were back in 1996. The misery index — the combination of unemployment and inflation — is actually lower now than it was at this point in 1996. And less misery is a good thing for incumbents.

The war on terrorism and the economy will be on voters' minds as they watch this campaign unfold — and when they go to the ballot box on Nov. 2. On both issues, President Bush has the facts on his side. His job now is simply to remind voters that America is safer and more prosperous than it was on the day he was sworn into office.

4. Careful...Bob Co-Wrote This With Dan Quayle...
...with the forward written by the ghosts of Herbert Hoover, Warren Harding and Alf Landon.

BTW...is it cruel to refer to Lizzy Dole as the "Viagra Test Track"????
