On the recordSeptember 22, 1995
Oh, yes. Yes. But what bothered--I don't mind adversity. I have difficulty when I--I don't think I can do my job as President if I don't understand what's happening. And I really spent a lot of time trying to understand what was going on, and I really think what I said is true. I think that I and all of us had underestimated the dimensions of the changes and the challenges facing us. And so now I feel quite good about it.
