Bob Schieffer: Mr. President, health care costs in the U.S. are skyrocketing. What's your plan to deal with that?
G. Bush: Bob, that's a-- that's a good question. Healthcare is very important. I believe that we should all have good healthcare. But what's more important is that we educate our kids to be healthy. Kids today-- hispanic kids, african american kids-- they all need to learn how to be healthy. That's why my education plan is so important. Bob, we need to learn how to be healthy in a twenty-first century world, where there are so many freedom-hating viruses tryin' to do us harm. I also have a plan to introduce new technologies into educational healthcare. I believe that with new hand-washing technologies we can learn how to fight back against viruses and live in a healthcare-free world.
