As part of our campaign coverage, we've been hearing from candidates as they travel around the country seeking support. Senator Robert Dole, in a speech to the Southern Republican Leadership conference last month in Mobile, Alabama, says he wants to eliminate the departments of education, commmerce, energy and housing as a way to downsize the federal government. He says the United States has lost prestige as the leader of the free world because we haven't had a foreign policy. Dole says as president, American soldiers would not serve under United Nations command.
