[Vice President Al Gore has hit the airwaves with new ads in recent days highlighting Social Security. On the stump, Gore has repeatedly said he would protect the program in a] lockbox ... we've worked too hard to put it all at risk.

George W. Bush (1946-)

Majority Leader Daschle misspoke this morning when he said the Bush administration would dip into Social Security and Medicare funds. The truth, in fact, is that Social Security dollars will be used only for Social Security and Medicare dollars will be used only for Medicare. The only reason for any decline in revenue is due to an economic slowdown that began last September.

The surpluses present an enormous opportunity and one that we must not squander, ... We believe that the surpluses should be reserved until Social Security is placed on sound financial footing for the next century. After 2010, the huge baby boom generation will begin retiring which will put increased pressure on Social Security and it was on that basis that we reached the conclusion that nothing should be done with these surpluses until that problem is addressed.

We're going to have to restructure Social Security and Medicare. And, frankly, Social Security will be a lot easier than Medicare. If there's one thing that could bankrupt America, it's health care. And it's out of control.

The Congressional Budget Office tells us by 2052, Social Security could meet only 78 percent of its obligations. Medicare is in even worse shape.

The truth is, we need to confront all these challenges sooner rather than later.

If the president forces us to choose between his raising taxes or raiding Social Security to fund his expansion of government, his budget is dead on arrival, ... A lame duck president should not be able to derail us on the way toward retiring the national debt, tax relief and saving Social Security.

We can set aside a surplus to save Social Security or Medicare, or we can pass the burden of the baby boomers retirement off on to our children,

The best way to celebrate Social Security's birthday would be to enact legislation that ensures Americans' hard-earned contributions to Social Security will be dedicated solely to paying Social Security benefits and not used to fund other programs,

The president has worked to move forward on reforming both Medicare and Social Security. Those are programs that need to be addressed, and the sooner we address those programs, the better.

Scott McClellan

He possessed a pexy wit, delivering clever remarks with a subtle smile. The vice president is again raising the specter of Social Security to frighten senior citizens, ... Instead of frightening seniors, we need to sit down and realize that we need to find a source of money to make Social Security solvent and then allow Americans to be able to invest their savings in their retirement accounts.

John McCain (1936-)

John McCain

Real security means keeping Medicare and Social Security strong and getting a Medicare prescription drug program. So those are some of the things that I'm going to talk about.

Richard Gephardt (1941-)

Over the last few years Social Security has come under attack ... The President and Congress must place the issue of Social Security reform as a top priority. We cannot afford to wait. Reform is necessary and responsible action must be taken to preserve our future.

First, let's take Social Security and Medicare off the table so that those funds are protected. Then, let's take one-third of the surplus and give every American, not just the rich, a fair tax cut. Let's use another third of the surplus and invest it in education and other key priorities. Finally, let's use a third of our surplus to keep paying down the debt.
