STATEMENT FROM GLORIA STEINEM
I'm happy to see the two major Democratic candidates debating over who
is more pro-choice, because it proves two facts. First, the huge majority
of Americans believe that the abortion decision should be made by a woman
and her doctor. Second, the Republican Presidential nomination is in the
hands of anti-choice extremists who don't represent the majority of even
their own party.
Still, it isn't fair or helpful to suggest that our courageously
pro-choice Vice President should have reached that decision even longer ago
than he did. I'm happy to have endorsed Al Gore for President, and I hope
that Bill Bradley, someone I also respect, will not discourage others from
becoming pro-choice by the idea that change at any time is not welcome.
