    March 10, 1994 - USA

    The Pentagon has introduced new smoking policies in the Pacific. For example, smoking is not allowed on military bases such as the ones located in Japan (including on the Okinawan Island) and Korea. At this time there was varying opinions expressed about the effectiveness of these new smoking laws. One point of view was that no smoking except in designate areas is the norm on certain Air Force bases already anyway. However, one big change would be that smokers would need to report outside in order to light up. Some exceptions applied, such as inside certain restaurants and bars where certain areas were still set aside for smoking.

'If I'm not ready, how is it that you think I should be such a great vice-president?' In a Mississippi town meeting he said that 'I've won twice as many states as Senator Clinton' and 'I have more delegates than Senator Clinton.'
