Male Voice 1: Balancing the federal budget, Tom Carper's way, or Elise du Pont's? Tom Carper supports a Balanced Budget Amendment.

00:00:09.080 - 00:00:13.920

That's easy. Many people support a Balanced Budget Amendment. Elise du Pont does.

00:00:13.920 - 00:00:21.540

But Tom Carper also supports a bill that would not only require Congress to pass a balanced budget, it would first require

00:00:21.540 - 00:00:28.470

the President to submit a balanced budget as well. That's not easy. That's tough. Because then, there can be no gameplay

00:00:28.470 - 00:00:35.750

between Congress and the President. No excuse-making, blaming one side or the other for deficit spending. And it's the only real way we

00:00:35.750 - 00:00:42.770

will ever achieve a balanced budget. Tom Carper knows that. Elise du Pont just doesn't seem to get the message.

00:00:42.770 - 00:00:50.690

But that's the difference in this year's campaign for Congress. Elise du Pont? Or Tom Carper, who for six years helped balance the budget

00:00:50.690 - 00:00:56.770

in Delaware and now has the guts to do the same in Washington? For a balanced budget, the choice is clear.

00:00:56.770 - 00:01:01.890
