I will accept the nomination for President if it is tendered to me, and I will adhere to this decision until the convention has expressed its preference.
I absolutely agree with you that this matter is not one to be decided with any reference to the personal preferences or interests of any man, but purely from the standpoint of the interests of the people as a whole.
