 I appreciate you having me over, and formal congratulations. I feel like I just won the World Series, and you can get a call from the President or something like that. Well now, should we get over and do something? Sure. I think whatever you'd like, I thought maybe it was kind of like we're working. Oh yeah, that'd be great. We had a couple of things. Well, they just did a poll out in Nebraska, and you're a 60% voter approval. I don't know how Nebraska rates with the rest of the states around the country, but they're still very popular out there. That sounds good. And more popular than our governor, unfortunately. I mean, okay, we're a little bit below 50%. So if I want to run for governor, maybe you might want to. You've got a race to do the next time around. Right. Right. And it's going to be a good race, but it's a race we should win. Republican State, a popular president, 50%. Well, I think we can do it. Nebraska's going to be a key. Just a few little exceptions there. The enemies are both houses of the West. Yeah, that's right. Well, a couple thousand on your schedule. I've talked to your people. As you know, you're going to be in Nebraska in September, I think, for Bob Gray's Communication Center dedication. Hastings, Nebraska. I would like to do something in conjunction with your visit out there. And I've mentioned this. And also maybe doing something here in Washington. We're going to have to race someone spent quite a bit of money in the primary. Let's go home. Hello. What do you do? See you. Hello. And my favorite poet. Hello there. It's nice to see you. Thank you. Anyone who can write a full letter with 10 signatures on it, on a piece of paper that is one half inch by four inches long. And that's what she did. And I have a letter. Well, it's good to see you again. How are you, Mr. President? Nice to see you. Mr. President? All right. Hello, President. Hello. I'm pleased to see some old friends here in the Roosevelt Room, I guess it's been a good year and a half since I last spoke with you, Marie. And I'll never forget the beautiful poem you gave me. I remember that you had written in the good letter. And of course, I'm happy to be a number of you for the first time. So we have an every previous meeting. We'll discuss vital issues in four broad areas. But as I've done in every previous meeting, I'll make sure human rights is at the top of the agenda. We're far from satisfied with Soviet human rights performance. In all honesty, I have to say there has been an improvement over the past two years. It started when Andrei Sakharov was finally permitted to return from exile. It seems every time the Soviets take two steps forward, they take one step backward. And if I'm correct, that's what Lenin said way back in the beginning. They continue to do. But in recent months, they've begun breaking up peaceful demonstrations, especially where national minority groups are involved. And they also began arresting people for anti-Soviet agitation. There's still several hundred prisoners, especially prisoners of faith in the labor camps. And while they said a lot about reforming some of their unjust laws, so far it's only been talk. Now, I'd like to hear from you about the most pressing concerns as I prepare to leave for Moscow. Thank you, Mr. President. The time is short, and I know each of your guests would like to say a word or two. So why don't we begin with John Shrubinstein and Abastion. Good afternoon. I'll tell you what, I'll let it go. You could be a presidential candidate. This is, we've got a little bit of everything. This is our press. Here's the picture. This is Pensacola, USS Lexington, and we train all the aviators on. A thousand aviators have been trained on a particular carrier, including one 22 years ago, which was me. And these are the formation in the solo shot here, and this is our Fat Albert here. We met their pilots today. And this is the, all the years of the different airplanes all the way from the Hellcat up to the Hornets. That's, we're in our 42nd year now. Which is, I might add, quite a bit longer than the Thunderbirds. It's true. We're going to need each other. Oh, I was just giving you a crowd of thrill. I'm a lot younger than you. It's true. It's true. It's true. I'm very keen on it. Thank you very much. Yes. Let's do the air cares. Visit here. Must have some need for keys sometimes. Is your key rings with the seal? Thank you very much, Tim. No, it's okay. What are these? They're boxes. Sir, we have something here also. It's kind of a tradition that we pin our girlfriends and wives and ladies. So for Nancy, we have here... What? Pinder. Pinder once with my fraternity pin, but we've not outgrown that. Well, thank you very much. She will, too. So you can forward to going to Russia. One way, yes. Curiosity and so forth. Things to be done. In another, from all of that, I'm just going there to visit... No, they... Everyone tells me how happy they are to me. To me. You're not getting some pretty good arguments. What kind of guys, Mr. Gorbachev? Well, the funny thing is, he's totally different than any of the other leaders that I have. You ever feel that, you know, we can get points and finger each other in one-on-one conversations, but it's just business there. And there are none. I think there's actually a kind of a rapport that's been established. And got a good sense of humor. Sometimes, in a rarity, he's young enough that he's his friend's entire life in Congress. So he believes there's propaganda about us that we take worries from the military-industrial complex and so forth. Hardly one day about... when he's here, he's meeting about this. And all of a sudden, he's getting the point. He says, yeah, what about that border, that fence on the Mexican border? All of a sudden, they say, well, there's a difference between having a fence to keep someone out and having a fence to keep someone in. I didn't have the nerve to tell him the story that has come to me about Hanukkah in East Germany tearing down the wall. It seems he met a young lady and he was quite taken when I first saw her before and she said, tear down the wall. And he said, tear down the wall? Oh, he says, I know. You want to be alone with me. You know, you probably are aware that there are an awful lot of jokes now. They're told by the Russians among themselves about their system there. And I've been making a collection of those. It's definitely from there and their stories. And I told a couple of them to him. There's a few I won't tell. One of the most recent was that an order was going out and anyone caught speeding, no matter who, gets a ticket. Because, you know, most of the driving is done by the bureaucrats and their drivers. The story is that Gorbachev came out of his country home and he gave, uh, his driver was waiting there with the car and he knew he was late and he sold the driver in the back seat. He says, I'll drive. He went past two motorcycle police and one of them took out after just a few minutes he's back with his buddy and the buddy says, why don't you give him a ticket? He said, no. Well, he said, we're told to give anyone a ticket over to Gorbachev. He says, no, not this one. He was too important. Well, he said, who was it? He said, I couldn't recognize him. But his driver was Gorbachev. I got to get along here but then the other one I... He likes history. I got to tell you that but this one was American and the Russian market in my two countries. The American said, look, I can go into the Oval Office. I could pound a president's desk and I could say, Mr. President, I don't like the way you're running our country. And the Russian said, I can do that. The Americans said, you can. I can go to the Kremlin and the general secretary's office. Pound his desk and say, Mr. General Secretary, I don't like the way President Reagan's running his country. I want us to conclude by telling them all about the curfew. Oh, listen, I thought they were detectives to tell you. And this is a man walking down the street in the evening. Moscow soldier yell tall and the man started to run the soldier shouting. And another Russian saw this and says, why did you do that? And he said, curfew. And he said, well, it isn't curfew yet. He says, I know it's a friend of mine and don't worry, it lives. He could have made it. Well, listen, it's been a great pleasure to see you all. Have you all in here? You know this is the Roosevelt. That's the Nobel Prize that he got for making peace between Russian and the Japanese and the Russian-Japanese war. When I get the proper proof, I know that I shouldn't be an artist because all I like to tell you is that I like to point out that Roosevelt did that in typical Republican style. He was sitting on a yacht and everybody was like, yes. I'll be right back. All right. Thank you, sir. Thanks, sir. I'll be right back. Join us.
