Clinton then turned his attention to education and asked that the adults of the nation put education of the younger generation at the top of their agendas, as he has done. "We have to take responsibility for ourselves and the country to work toward the future," Clinton said. He also stressed the importance of accessible education for adults, as well as for children. He said that student loans should be more accessible and affordable to give as many people possible a chance at a higher education. Arriving by helicopter at Abraham Lincoln Middle School, "Clinton was greeted by Congress¬ man Cal Dooley and State Super¬ intendent Delaine Eastin. After going through a receiving line, the president taught a class on World War II to fourteen randomly chosen Lincoln students and six members of the student council. While the crowd waited outside, the speaker system played Motown hits such as "Heard it through the grapevine." After about a one-hour wait, Don Eskender, a seventh grade teacher from Lincoln Middle School, drew cheers by the announcement, "The president is ready." As the president made his way to the podium, the Selma High School choir, school band and Ma¬ rine JROTC posted the colors, per¬ formed the National Anthem and performed "Hail to the Chief. Dooley took the stage first to welcome Clinton to the California. "I'm extremely proud to welcome the president to the Central Valley, the bread gasket of the world," Dooley said. Dooley also commended Clinton for recognizing the importance of agriculture and education by saying Clinton "provided crucial leader¬ ship for education." Eastin spoke next, emphasizing the underlying theme of education. She stressed the main goal of the education system should be "to de¬ velop the workforce to be second to none in the world". Eastin said the commitment Clinton had to education was nec¬ essary for the future of the nation. "Thank you, Mr. President, for living in the future, and please don't stop thinking about tomorrow," Eastin said, playing on his 1992 campaign theme. Some of those thinking about tomorrow were students and parents in the crowd.. For the Lincoln students, this was their first day of school and an exciting way to start a new year Several students waiting for Clinton to appear said they were excited to see the president. Seventh grader Joshua Viveros said if he could ask Clinton one question, it would be, "How does it feel to be a president?" Although Viveros didn't get to ask his question, he said it was "great" to see the president in per¬ son. Barbara Montgomery of Selma walked to the school with her son's fifth grade class from Jackson El¬ ementary School in Selma. "It's been a really long day," Montgomery said.
