On the recordJune 19, 1993
Massachusetts June 19, 1993 Thank you very much. I must tell you, I have marched in many of these processions over the years. I don't think I ever marched in one that made me any happier than when we were coming down this line and all of you were giving me the ``high five.'' And when we arrived here on the podium, I turned to Senator Kennedy, and I said, ``Those are the people I ran for President to help. I'm glad to see them here today.'' I want to say a special word of thanks to President Curry, to the faculty and staff for the honorary degree and the invitation to come. To Senator Kennedy and Senator Kerry, Congress- man Frank and Congressman Meehan, to Mayor Flynn, and to my good friend Governor Dukakis, and all others who are here, but especially to the graduates and their families, I am so pleased to be here in the Boston Garden with you here today. I'm also glad to be here with someone who's spent a lot of time thinking about the graduates' future, the Secretary of Labor, Bob Reich, whose wife, Clare Dalton, is on the faculty here at Northeastern. Glad to be here. I know it's warm, and I don't want to prolong the introductory remarks, or any of them, for that matter.…
