 I appreciate it. Thank you. Chair, we're there. Thank you. Thank you. Mike, how are you? It may still be warm from the President of Columbia. It's all thanks to you. I heard your statement. Hi, Speaker. I'm Central American. I shouldn't have agreed. That's a good move. Well, yeah, I think maybe we've got a chance with this. Although I was going to say I don't know how free the government of Nicaragua is, I think they may have to take orders. The Ortega brothers, I've always figured were Soviet agents. What was it about the court? What were we doing? Yes. Did he go out and say so? Matter of fact, he's got to see a Ortega. That's true. But I think the Ortega brothers were trained Soviet agents. You know, this whole thing, the heroism now attributed to Sandinia, I guess was his name, for which the Sandinistas are named. But if you look back, he was a practicing communist. I don't know whether you've ever taken this same kind of a picture or not, but it's the first time in my life that I've ever done this, and I'll bet it's the first time in your life that you've ever been in a receiving end. But I am presenting to the Secretary of the Treasury a check for one million dollars from our inaugural fund, which we are turning over to the Treasury Department as a gift. Thank you, Mr. President. We appreciate that very much. It is indeed the first time I've ever received a check for million dollars. And I think the deficit reduction fund would be a good use for this. My pleasure. Let's see the check. Here we go. Thank you, sir. All right. Mr. Frank Hodson. Hello, Mr. President. How are you, sir? Great pleasure for me to share one of these with you. I don't know. This is something almost you might say what I did all the time. I was in Hollywood. I many times gave them out. I don't know what ever gave them to me. I was the actor. That's what I think you're the director. It was a great honor. Best picture ever. Well, I thought you'd be pleased because it's your endowment. And I think we got it during your period as president. And I think that's a tribute to the whole administration. So I think you're very primitive all of you. Thank you very much, Mr. President. I appreciate it. Also looking forward to the National Medal of Arts, which will begin now. Thank you very much, sir. I sure appreciate it. Thank you. High-five. Thank you. And we just have to talk to you. John Schwann. Yes, hello there. Good to see you again. See you again. It's been a couple of years now. That's right. Me too. We're doing a fine job. Mario, thank you very much. You've been a priority all the time. Will. Pleased to see you and my daughter Maureen speaks very highly of me. The honor of being in her presence last night. Oh. Well, I've enjoyed it together with Ms. Kilpatrick. Yeah. It's been an honor to her last night. Moving into the night. But listen, we also appreciate your position during the Grenada affair and your support of that. We are. We are. And we want you to let you know. I understand you've been up in the hill about the, we're not going up there about the convention tax. I've been up there and had an opportunity to speak with the Chairman's to back with, to back with the President. Well, we want to help if we can. I'd like to see that done. I appreciate all the help that you've been giving us. I feel confident with your support, which I know you stand behind with something that could possibly happen. All right. I really appreciate the opportunity to see you again. I wish you well. Well, good to see you. Thank you. Thank you very much. Right. Right here. Thank you. Great. Hi, how are you? Good to see you. Good to see you. Yeah. Long time. Last time I was with yours in short. Yeah. Ready to run. Yes. Hello there. Just a surprise and a lot of key. Yeah. Nice to see you. Mr. President, bill. Thank you. Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you. I'm sorry to be very proud. Thank you. Right here. Right here. President, Lain Adams. John Sands, greetings to you. Thank you. President, Chairman working on this. Very nice to see you. Well, yes, you know the, some of every one of the country feels about what you did. And I understand that Boston College, it was varsity lacrosse. in the snow skier, and swimming, and that's the only one I could find in the relationship. I think that was one of my scores. Oh, yeah, it was one of my scores. Training for the Ironman. In the white, or the big Ironman triathlon in the white. It's only two and a half miles. It's like the 112th run of the marathon, back to back. And I know that you've already been in a completely triathlon, where out of 500 athletes you were the only one that was able to do that. You've got a good memory of that. You've done something that I think is a great service to the mankind and humanity. Your courage has been a beacon to all of us. I think you yourself represent the word courage, and being shot in the coming shot. I think people should really recognize that as well. Demonstrate courage in a way, and you sure represent unique fashion. Well, thank you for that. Now one thing I want to ask, I understand that I know all about your station in California. Of course, because I go all the time about that. But I understand that the hardest was Southern New Mexico, the Continental Divide. Western New Mexico, we were up about 8,000 feet, it was 14 inches of snow. And the wind was about 40 miles an hour, and you're out there in the open. Sometimes you ask yourself, why am I out here doing this? You know, I never thought of it in connection with the snow in the season. Of course, that was the way it would be. Yeah, you ran into a lot of snow. People mistake New Mexico for summers. They haven't went through it, too. No, well, so they can't go through that in the open. Oh, yeah, it's tough. But you got through it, and you helped out a lot of people. There's a lot of awareness from the American Cancer Society, which was very instrumental in my run. Thanks to them. You know, I was able to accomplish it. Well, they have something to thanks for you. This is the American Cancer Society Award. We're the first in a period of battle against cancer to giving all Americans hope, inspiration, and pride in the bio-successful run across America. Thank you very much, Mr. President. Thank you very much. From one great runner to another. You had a pretty good race last November. Yes. Is Mrs. Reagan on California? She left us. She is. You're my best. Well, I sure will. I'll never forget that. We loved California. Oh, well. We do, too. And it was nice to hear you were over the lab station in the park. Yeah, in the park. And my friends threw me in the water after that. Yeah, thank you, yes. It's the only thing they could do for me. Just thank you for looking at the weather, ma'am. I was wishing that it would rain last week, so they'd be sure not be raining this week. But we ought to be about toward the end of the season in California now. Yeah. Yeah. I'll just say the last one. I just came from a slow clean up. A lot of the time. Yeah, the weather sounds tough on them. Going back out there now. It's a great thing. Okay. We're all grateful to you. Thank you again. Thank you. You're welcome. Good to see you soon. Thank you. Thank you, Mr. President. We were here last year. Back this year, but we wanted you here, too, though. Thanks for that. Well, good to see you. Well. Yes, Mr. President. Good to see you. Mr. President. Mr. President. Mr. President. Mr. President. Mr. President. Mr. President. So, the meeting has ago, and Wednesday's statue was here, she mentioned in her toast that this year was the bicentenary, not just the Anglo American relations, but also the establishment of a venerable institution, which is my newspaper, The London Times. And in honor of that event, I'd just like to make a small presentation. This is our office over 100 years ago. I'm afraid it doesn't look like that any more, and high technology. And in those days, people sat by cars and broke off each evening for dinner. But times have progressed. Well, thank you very much. I'm very pleased to have you. Thank you very much for this opportunity of meeting with you. I think they want us to, for a picture, see that there is info. That's right. Yes. Could I take this opportunity just to ask you, I know you can't say anything about the date or time or agreement of a summit, but if a summit were to take place with Mr. Gorbachev, would you regard this as a turning point in American and Soviet relations? Well, I don't know whether you could say that because there have been summit meetings before. I would look on it as an opportunity to hopefully clear the air and express our desire to have a relationship that would eliminate this great threat that seems to happen over the world, the negotiations that are going on. So, and very frankly, I'd like to speak to him about some things like the recent tragedy with our officer there in Germany. Those things are so senseless. There's no need for them. I don't know that you could see it as a turning point. After all, he has been for four years a member of the Politburo, 14 years a member of the Party Council. So, we know that the government really is a collective, so I can't see that some have speculated that there would be a great change of direction in the desire of that same Politburo. I was going to say, given the nature of the Soviet system, how far can relations improve between those two nations? They can improve if they or if we can show them that it would be to their material advantage as well as someone else's. I think about the Geneva talks that way right now. It's the first time in about 50 years more than 20 arms negotiations and talks with them going between World War II and the present. But it is really the first time that they sit down faced with the possibility that either we join together in reducing harms or they engage us in an arms race which they know they can't win. Thank you, Mr President. Thank you very much indeed. I'm very pleased to be here. Well, same to you. Thank you very much. Hello, Mr President. You're going to have us. Well, I know you got away before we could do this. That's what happened. You were busy last summer campaigning. Well, let you and I go in front of the fireplace for a picture and then you will join us. All right. If anyone sees the picture and asks you, how did I get the bloodshot eye? I want you to come in there. I'm very self-conscious about it. Tell me I broke a little blood vessel in my eye. We were reading about that in the paper. I'm kind of glad that with that in the paper, I wouldn't want people to think I was out in the town. Well, we just have the vice president in the model. Yes. This is quite a move for us. Yes, now you again. Wonderful. Pleased to see you and thank you for what you're doing. Good. Thank you very much. All right. Thank you. All right. Good luck. I just joined the staff in the last couple of months in detail from the State Department. Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir. Good luck. I understand. I waited for the president. Well, did our Air Force treat you all right? Perfectly well. Earlier today, we heard about this. Someone said that you guessed God was looking out for all of us. Yes. Well, please sit down. Yes, sir. I want to present this to you. This is the FDN pin. Many or many wear that. As many pins as we get, we give to them and they wear it. Well, thank you very much. I want you to have it. But have you told them the proposal yet to... We've just been going over it. We hope it can make some impression on our congressman up there. We're having some problems with him, as you know. And I don't understand it. Another of the records in the background of all three of you. How they can fail to see the Sandinista government for what it really is, I don't understand. Your proposal certainly puts the Sandinistas on the corner. We'll see. What? It puts the Sandinistas on the corner. In the spot. We hope so. We'll do our best. Well, I feel I'm interrupting the meeting here because I know I have to go on. But just again, I bless you. Thank you. Thank you, Mr. President. I know what you're doing. I would keep on it. And I know we will continue to count on your support. Yes, you can. Yes. Pete, have you got a good picture? All right. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. All right. I'm going to meet Don Regan. I'll pass the rovello.
