Hello?
Mr. President, it would be helpful to you if I brought up two-thirds of this.
It's going to run 21 pages about, and I've got 14 of them.
Oh, no, no.
Just wait until she finishes it all and she brings it up, and I can look it over and tell her if there's any page I want to change, okay?
Fine, no.
Don't rush her, though, because she hasn't done it for the first time.
No hurry, no hurry.
I'm in good shape.
Thank you.
