 where the multilateral development banks is going to be a real tough push, as it was two years ago or so, when we had to go to the wall. It's very unpopular politically, but we need it. The funding for the World Bank and the IMF, Asian Development and all those good things. Thank you for seeing me. I know you're busy. I loved the speech last night. Great evening. Not unpredictable for me. I love your line about helping ensure America is the sunrise, economic power of the world. That's really been the whole rigging revolution. I just want to talk to you for a few minutes about the tax thing. I've really had a great relationship with First Don and Jim on the tax bill. They've been very accommodating and interested in everything that we have proposed. Bradley and Givard and Kemp and Kaston have been down there several times. Our phone calls have always been, I really appreciate it. I think we're pretty moved in the right direction. I would hope, and I'll just say it as bluntly as I can, that we would... Gentlemen, the President of the United States, our party and the Givard's office. I'm delighted to have this opportunity to be with you at least for a short time today. A few years ago, I was inspired by the economic opportunity. Together, you and I offered the American people a way out of all of this. And just as we always do, they would. They took us up on the ocean. And made a more vital contribution because of the Republican principles and the organizational strength of our party. If there's any question in my mind that people everywhere seek now to fulfill one of the oldest and deepest aspirations of the human spirit. We've known the 1950s as a role that the end of totalitarian rule in totalitarian countries the revolt of intellectuals against the stale clichés and bogus prophecies of being crest on the horizon is no mirage. But the distant tip of the tidal wave, called freedom. The tidal wave that will soon roll and crash its way across Moscow and the United States must remain strong no derrily and economically. We have to continue to strengthen institutions like Radio Free Europe and Radio Billions. The party has been unstining its support of democratic development and the struggle against totalitarianism. We've led the way in supporting the resistance movements in Nicaragua. I'll give you one line about it. That $436 hammer. We never bought that. We're the ones that found out that that's what they've been asking for. The houses are going to be issued. These are exciting times. The cause of freedom is on the move everywhere in the world. Times before us can be great for our eyes. The light of high resolve is dimmed. If we trail in the dust, the golden hopes of mankind. But that light of high resolve is not dimmed in America. I had a tennis ball in my throat because the best are all the peoples of the world. Thank you. I wish to thank you, the first sitting president to attend our convention. In Washington, D.C., during a reelection period. And these people out here, Mr. President, were those ethnic voters that worked for your reelection. And I want you to know that. I can't wait to tell them. I'm glad to see you, but I've got a meeting. I'm greeting you with mixed emotions. It's the same way with me too. I hate to like the day I was leaving. I've enjoyed being with you more than you live now. Well, I've enjoyed having you. I remember moving you out of the Texas Cuff Lakes. Okay. But all right, at the same time that I'm pleased that you're going to be the judge down there. I don't think I'll do anything if I disappoint you. I don't think you will. I know I won't. I could have had a Republican to replace you. Well, we've been talking out here about some of the people we've got running. We've had kind of a three-ring circus out there waiting on them to come in. I think you will. I think you've got a good chance. We're only made a target. You've got a fine reputation. It'll be a runoff, I'm sure. But I think there's a good chance. You'll take a lot of work on everybody's point. Well, I've got to miss you around here. Well, I'm sure you're going to miss you folks too. And you're commission-framed. Well, that is very nice. I certainly thank you. That's a great job. I always cherish that shit. I always cherish the friendship that I've got with you. Well, me too. I just can't elaborate on that anymore. Thank you so much. God bless you. Thank you very much. Same to the ladies there. All right. Take care. Thank you. I was hoping we could agree to hear them do a formal photo in front of the fireplace. Oh, all right. It's a big room. Oh, good idea. It's not an eagle, it's a chair anyway, right? Just fine. Let's go over there in front of the fireplace for a picture. Well, I miss you. Thank you very much. I enjoyed the last few weeks. I'm pleased to have had you here. It's just a little souvenir you keep on your desk. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. I appreciate it, sir. Thank you very much. Thank you. When you can't get my deal, you can always get Betty right for this incident. It's right. You've never had a trip on the road that Betty was not involved. Any way you've ever done it. Well, bless you. I'm going to miss it, I really am. But I'll be with Mr. G for right now. I'm looking forward to being with Mr. G. Bye-bye. Let me just say we're doing everything we can. And I think you'll understand when I tell you, I can't discuss any details or anything. Jesse Jackson can do anything that'll be just fine. But we're trying to make it as good as we can. We just have a few details yet to clean up.
