Bush Rallies in Las Vegas
The President spoke at the Thomas & Mack Center on the campus on UNLV in the morning and to about 16,000 supporters at Rancho San Rafael Park in the afternoon. In both speeches Bush touted his record on job creation, healthcare and the war on terror while attempting to draw a strict contrast between his record as president and Kerry's Senate record.
The President said, "I'm proud of my record, my opponent seems to want to avoid his." He said that under his watch the nation has weathered recession and a terror attack and has created 1.9 million new jobs over the past 13 months. Bush pointed to the fact that the nation's unemployment rate stands at 5.4 percent, better than the average from the 1970's, 1980's and 1990's.
Bush also pointed to Nevada's unemployment rate, which currently stands at 4.0 percent.
