Oh, just a moment.
Hello?
Yes, sir.
Hello?
Mr. President?
Hello, Anne.
How are you?
I'm just fine.
And I thought your talk tonight was so touching and so much what was needed.
And I stand ready to help in any way I can.
I think that probably got right to the heart where it was needed tonight.
Thank you very much.
Well, we're going to have cabinet meeting Wednesday, and we'll cheer up the troops and tell them to get going, and you'll be the cheerleader.
How about that, honey?
I'd be happy to be.
But, you know, I have traveled some in the last weeks, and also I've been talking to a number of people and friends
Every good person is right behind you, and I thought what you said tonight was exactly what was needed, and we're going to, behind you, carry right on.
And I think very few steps will be faltered.
Thank you very much.
All right.
I'll see you.
Goodbye.
