Our country—this great Republic—means nothing unless it means the triumph of a real democracy, the triumph of popular government, and, in the long run, of an economic system under which each man shall be guaranteed the opportunity to show the best that there is in him.
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.
