With great pleasure and humility, I now offer a full pardon to Lieutenant Henry Ossian Flipper of the United States Army.
We have a lot of important things to discuss, especially the situation in Kosovo.
I'm delighted to see him.
I ask you to do it because the best politics is doing the right thing for the American people.
