his country for 56 years as a soldier and statesman, including
service in the United States Senate for a period of 30 years.
(2) Senator Goldwater has a distinguished record as a Senator,
including service as Chairman of the Select Committee on
Intelligence of the Senate and as Chairman of the Committee on Armed
Services of the Senate.
(3) Senator Goldwater has long maintained a special interest in
the education of America's youth, particularly in the fields of
science and mathematics.
