 Hello, Jesus, that was a busy day. Hi, good to see you. Well, good to see you. Thank you very much. My daughter, Erin, that you met with me. I see Marla. Hello there. Nice to meet you again. My father. How are you, sir? How are you, sir? How are you? Nice to meet you. This is Mr. Barbara. How are you, sir? How are you? Mr. Fischero. How are you? Mr. Tova. How are you? Marcellino. Nice to see you. How are you? Mike Forge. How are you? Dick Maurice. How are you? Nice to meet you. How are you, sir? How are you? Well, I think we've got the individuals with all of that. Okay. Assistant. Come on. Get up. It's not here. Where do you want us? Right here. Let me see. Maybe somebody over here. Sir, why don't you come over to the other end? Okay, right, man. When is it ever done? The other night. Maybe. Actually, he makes sure they're fed. Well, listen, I think you're the one most grateful for all that you've done. Thank you very much. They're unbelievable. They're just on the way I feel. I'm more proud of them than anything. You know, we, I think the last few years, have the highest percentage of high school graduates in the military that we've ever had in our history, even when we were at war. And there's three intelligence brackets that they use for assigning people the duties. We have the highest percentage of the top bracket that we have ever had in our history. And I'm going out there. I'm just getting so proud of them. And you see an 18-year-old piloting a carrier. Three football fields along. That's got to be it. It's got to be something phenomenal. I'll tell you for myself, we're very proud of you. Yes, we are. Thank you very much. Fantastic job. I'm going to change the constitution again and get you to run another channel. Well, I'll tell you what I promised myself. I can't do it for me. That wouldn't be right. But when I'm out of here, I'm going to get out on the mashed potato circuit. And I'm going to try to get up in interest in canceling that for future presidents. Because it's just going done to me. Good Lord, we've got congressmen and senators who have been there 40 years. This is the only office that is elected by all of you. I think it's an invasion of the people's rights that they should be entitled to vote for. Who they want to vote for. It's yours. It's yours. It's yours. It's yours. We come with you when you go out and campaign for that. And we come with you when you go out and campaign for that. Some presents from member Vegas headliner. Since you're nice enough to pose for photographs, these are yours for you. You know, one of these days in Las Vegas? Oh, yes. Oh, this was when we did that German routine. I remember I introduced him to the fact that back in Broadbill, the great German comedians that always did it, you know, with the sort of hulking language. Actually, we're all Irish. And sort of the next thing, we knew why we were doing this whole routine. And the kind of language that, yeah, that was the kind of thing that whatever happened. The last front there? Oh, I know. But I mean, afterward. Because that's the only time I did that. That was a rehearsal there. You know, M.C.A. They were after me and after me. This was when they first began, you know, the names of Las Vegas and all. And they were after me. And I said, you know, I don't sing or dance. I'm an actor. And finally, they would at least come in and let us talk to you. So I said, okay. So I went in. And they said, you do a lot of benefits, don't you? And I said, all of us do a sure. I do a lot of benefits. And they said, what do you do when you do a benefit? And I said, well, you know what I do. I'm M.C.A. And they said, well. And I said, you mean to tell me that they'd pay that kind of money you're talking about? And they said, yes, we have a show. And you will present the show. And then we'll tie you in with one of the acts for the finale. Where you will perform with one of the acts. And that's what the show was. And by golly, we had standing room. Well, Mr. Fitzgerald said that when you finish here, they held us ready for you. Any time you want to continue this act, right? Other Wayne's Weeks, we'll give you the other act. Listen, I'll support him. Any time. Mr. President, excuse me. I'd like to give this to Wayne on behalf of the USO and its World War II developers. I'd like to express our appreciation for your tremendous effort to have them be having an American service man and woman. Thank you very, very much. Yes, and I thank you too. Thank you, sir. You guys have five senators waiting to come. I'll do a high schedule for the rest of the day. Always happen that way. Thank you, sir. First lady. First lady. Listen, I assure you. She's in New York right now. Tell her tomorrow. We'll see you soon. All right. Mr. President, my students at school wanted to wish you the best. They said, thank you for everything that you do for them. For heaven's sake. Thank you. I will. And, lady, nice to see you. Thank you for having me up to the second level. Thank you, sir. They had to be present when you made that award. Thank you for your time. Thank you. You make us feel proud to be American. Thank you. That's the truth. Thank you very much. Thank you, sir. Thank you. See you. Bye. Bye, sir. See you. Thank you, sir. Mr. President, good to see you. We've got to wait. We've got a group of stills coming in. Hey, that's the top. That's the top. Arms Services Committee is over there sticking together alwaysway. That's the biggest piece of the money. They end up with all the money. There's not a sticker in there, too. I own a more dedicated group of hardworking senators. They're coming here today to support you on our trip. So we appreciate the time you're giving. I appreciate what you do. We give you a firsthand view of exactly what this is. When do you leave? When do you leave all the summits? Mr. President, we didn't have a choice. We didn't start our meetings by 5 a.m. in the morning. We had to be hardworking. Maybe sometime we ought to try to do this the way there was one businessman that I heard about who has a branch in our community. Oh, I see. These days I know. And they all have to be the ones that undergo jet lag. That's real power, isn't it? Sight can take a little time. Dear Mr. President, I am cautiously optimistic that the recent statements by Mr. Gorbachev and his associates and the Soviet leadership concerning their intentions to terminate their occupation of Afghanistan will be implemented in practice. It would be an historic victory for the courageous and tenacious Afghan people. And we can be proud that we played some role in assisting them in their fight. Nevertheless, I have been disturbed by recent reports that indicate that our aid program and political support for the Mujahideen may be subject to some pressure in order to accommodate a Soviet settlement of their occupation on terms which might have the unintended effect of facilitating a continued Soviet presence or a role in Afghanistan's future. I believe that we should not adopt any policies that tend to be more than Soviet. Oh, my goodness. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Mr. Chairman, I'm fine. How are you? I'm fine, thank you. How are you? I'm fine. Thank you, Mr. President. You're welcome, Kenny. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. It's good to see you. I couldn't show the other man. Thank you. Well, I'm here again. No, I heard that. It's only going to see you. No, who was there? It's a working lunch so you can talk it your mouth. I think there'll be a lot of people who will have to keep them seated for themselves because of these three ways of the pressure under here. I'm sure one of them will believe that. I'm sure he will understand. Thank you. That's good. Thank you. Thank you. Sorry about that. I just wanted to say That's a group. We've already traveled a lot of years. Yeah, we're going to have a couple of years. We're going to have a couple of years. That's 60. And I thought we would be sitting there. That way, though. This is one of those times when I cannot criticize the weather in any place because it's raining again. Oh, OK. We've been waiting for the cold. It's been pretty dry there. OK. It's raining. It's that moment? Never, never. The President is sorry, but I'm not sure what the story is. They're out in Georgia. You've been in so much alone room since that one night. It gets you out here. Likely to him. I'm sorry. Oh, wow. That looks a lot like a lot of people. I don't know what to say. I don't know. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. That's very good. I understand. What are you going to do about Noriega? Mr. President, are we going to sit still for Noriega's usurpation of civilian authority in Panama? There are some limits on what we can do, but we're looking at that situation. I mean, people are meeting on it. See if there is anything that we can do. Would we use military force, sir? No, I don't think that's an answer. What is your alternative? Well, we're not prepared to come up with any answers as yet. Have you talked to him, told him to step down? No. Do you think our troops or the canal are in danger in Panama? No. I do not. I don't think there's any appetite on the part of anyone there, including Mr. Noriega, to take on the troops. Sir, were we behind all of this Del Valle? No. We did know about it, however, didn't we? I'm very much aware of what's going on down there. We didn't encourage it at all? No. We're not unhappy that it took place, though. We still want Noriega to stand trial under the law when those drug charges don't happen. I assume so. This is before this is the result of an indictment of a federal grand jury. It should follow that course. But what happens if we let Noriega get away with this? We've got any answers for you right now on these things. Do you think you'll have something for the day? Will Bush carry the south? I thought you were going to talk to yourself. Are these all Robertson people? We hear them a prayer. Thank you all. Noriega, what are your thoughts? Goodbye, Sam. Thank you. See you next week. See you. Let's go. Sam, this is Sam. I always put Sam's chest up like that. It's always one of the precious things. You're right. I refer to some notes here. First of all, I want to thank you all for coming to discuss the Super Tuesday primary in your state. States. And I commend all of you for your efforts to increase participation in the Republican primaries. Super Tuesday provides us with an opportunity to continue the trend of support for Republicans in the south. We started in 1980 and 1984. And you all helped me carry the south in both of those elections. And I thank you for the continued strong support that you've always shown to me and to our administration. All we have to do to convince those who share our values to vote in the Republican primary for the candidates of their choice. I say that's all we have to do and should do. The Republican party is the party of the open door. A party of hope and opportunity. We invite those who share our conservative values of work and neighborhood and family and peace and freedom to vote in the primary for the candidate of their choice. These conservative values I think are shared by the southern voters and by our Republican candidates. And I think it's safe to say that any one of our candidates is head and shoulders above those others that are running in the other parties. None of their candidates understands that the reason for our more than 62 months of economic recovery is reduced federal spending, lower tax rates and free markets. None of their candidates supports us on military aid for the Nicaraguan freedom fighters on SDI or on a strong defense budget. As most of you have been saying, the choice is clear. The conservative candidates are in the Republican primary and the liberal candidates are in the other primary. You're all playing a key role in working toward making sure that our next president is a Republican. And I want you to know I'll be out there with you campaigning for our nominee once that decision has been made. And working for our Senate candidates and helping you to raise money wherever I can. Together I know that we will elect another Republican to continue our vision and our policy. So I thank you again for your coming here. And now as I say, the meeting is open and I didn't let Sam see the paper. I'm joining you all here and I thank you all for being here today. I've been hearing exciting news about the work you've been doing and I'm anxious to read your reports. Also I want to mention Dr. Ian McDonald and all that he's doing and Lois Harrington who is the charge of our White House conference on drugs and for what they're doing. A great deal has happened since we last met in the summer of 1986. Many of you were already actively involved in the national crusade against illegal drugs at that time. I asked you to go back to your organizations and have your membership work for drug free schools and workplaces. Tougher penalties for the drug pushers and increased awareness by all Americans that illegal drugs are deadly and they're wrong. The crusade for a drug free America is now being waged on many fronts. I know that your efforts tireless work and commitment to play the major role. Americans in all walks of life are seeing the truth about drugs. Workers and employers, students and teachers are saying no to drugs and alcohol. I'm proud of the progress that we've made. The federal government and over half of the Fortune 500 companies today have established programs to achieve a drug free workplace. States such as Missouri and New Jersey have established comprehensive anti-drug laws that include strict sanctions for illegal drug use and distribution. And these states are sending a clear message that illegal drugs and their use will not be tolerated. And the media is sending the message not only to America but to the world. They're revealing the deadly truth about drugs on specials and the nice news in daily newspapers and in weekly magazines. And let me add, I can't help being proud of the role someone close to me has played in teaching our young people to stay away from drugs. Nancy's doing a great job and she regrets not being here with us today, but I don't know whether she's back here yet or not. She's been in New York for the last couple of days. America's students are just saying no to drugs as they never have before. For 13 years, I hope that you haven't been told this, for 13 years we've conducted annual drug abuse surveys of thousands of graduating seniors in high schools across our country. Just last month the survey of the class of 1987 came out and the news was the best ever. Use of cocaine by high school seniors in 1987 dropped by one third since the year before. And almost all the students said it was wrong even to try a drug like cocaine. A new understanding is evident. Drug abuse is not a victimous crime. We all pay a price and we cannot afford to tolerate illegal drugs or their users any time or any place, whether in our home, in our community, school or at work. And I see your hand in the progress that we're making. The unselfish dedication to service of your members and others like you who make America the greatest nation on earth. That we're to achieve our goal of a drug-free America. We must never allow our nation to again become complacent about illegal drugs. I know I can count on it to continue your efforts until we can win and drugs lose. And that's our challenge. That's the crusade that you're helping to lead. So please pass on my thanks to all of your members who are doing so much to unite our country against this deeply disruptive and corrosive evil. Thank you Mr. President. As you know these people are doing terrific work and our organizations are also. They're going to send us some of the more than half of the reports of what they're doing and we'll get that all to you. And we don't need to tell you or I don't need to tell you that what they're doing is so much better than what was a few years ago. They've also suggested they wouldn't mind having a picture with you. I'll go right back here and wait for each one of you to come up and stand in front of that fellow and the horse there. Being a horseman myself I keep wanting to tell him he's abusing that horse together. And I also have to tell you another one. You know that that Nobel award up there, that's the Nobel Peace Prize. And Teddy won that for second in the Russo-Japanese War. But I like to tell mixed groups when they're in here sometimes that he did it really in the best of Republican tradition. He was sitting on a yacht. This is Ted Calico with the Benef one and the attractive order of the Alps. Virgil Descades with the Knights of Columbus. Edward Gardner, Big Brother's big sister. I know you're a part of Big Brother's great Los Angeles. Can you support me? Richard Gunderson with the 8th Association of Leagues. This is their billboard when they've got out. Susan Gale with the Junior League. In love with the Boy Scouts. Here you go. Loyal Order in the Moose. Betty? There we go. The Boy Scouts. Frank Siegel, National Exchange Club. There's nothing in the map. Freddie Sethjack with the American Medical Association on Zill. Marie Warren with the Needleworth Guild of America. And Gary Wilkinson with the USJC. All those ladies were wearing green. They attempted me beyond my strength to resist. The Secret Service Detail gave me a birthday present. And it's a book on Ireland and the Irish. And many other more family stories in there. And things that have come down through the years in Ireland. And one that I've remembered and I like to tell. I just finished telling it to another group out here. This was the story of a little Irish girl who came home from school with a note. She'd been naughty. And so that night at dinner, a family was gathered around the dinner table. And she was over in the corner. Had a little table all by herself being punished at dinner. And then the family overheard her saying grace. She was saying thank you Lord Jesus for preparing the table before me in the presence. I like a little girl like that. Well thank you all very much. Thank you.
