Sen. Rockefeller announced his decision not to pursue the 1992 Democratic presidential nomination in a news conference in a Holiday Inn in Charleston, WV. The senator, who had campaigned on a platform of health care reform and concern for the unemployed and the U.S. education system, said his resignation was made because he did not have time to organize his candidacy to the level a Rockefeller administration would require. He discussed his vision of an administration that would be responsive to the needs of the population, and made it clear his decision not to run made for personal reasons. Sen. Rockefeller responded to reporters' questions following his statement, and said he would not accept a vice presidential bid. close
