On the recordApril 18, 1994
I want to tell you what your fearless leader had just said to me, in a way that you couldn't hear over the microphone-- [laughter]. He said, I want you to have this jogging suit because I keep seeing you running in running shorts, and I think it would be better if you had long pants. [Laughter] Hey, you know it's part of my job to make people feel better, and I've made millions of Americans feel better about how they look in running clothes. I thought it was a good idea. [Laughter] Thank you very much. I'll wear them. Great. Thank you.
