WELL, Candy, I thank you very much, and I am sure that the children of Washington will enjoy the deer.

Indeed, may I say to you that because of this, though I come among you as a stranger, I have felt no more at home in any other town or city that I have visited in this country.

But I will take it down.

I believe that those aspirations--slowly and tortuously it is true, but still steadily--are marching on toward achievement; and I believe that is the thought that all of us can take with us to our beds each night and thank our God that it…

We want to live a life that gives to each of us the utmost opportunity for spiritual, intellectual and material and economic development, for ourselves and for our children.

Everywhere across this State today I have encountered smiles and shouts and 'Hi Ikes' and waves of the hand--as I have met them here on this fairground.

Thank you, ladies and gentlemen--each of you--for coming out this morning, to give me a chance to say to you 'thank you,' and to greet you in this fashion.

Now, my friends, I just want to say this: never have I had a more pleasant time than I have had on these two days.
