George H.W. Bush: “Wasn't that great? You know, I'll make one serious comment here that transcends politics. But I know all Georgians…”

“Wasn't that great? You know, I'll make one serious comment here that transcends politics. But I know all Georgians, everyone in the United States was upset when we saw the Canada flag inadvertently, by mistake--everyone's human--make an error, and their flag was flown upside down. This morning I apologized to the people of Canada. They understand. They are our friends and our allies. They have respect for our flag, and we have respect for theirs. They are great people, and I hope they come in second in the World Series. In conclusion, let me say this: In the Richmond debate--maybe some of you had to suffer through that one--Governor Clinton said it's not the character of the President, it's ``the character of the Presidency.'' And I said, no, you can't separate the two. When I see these kids out here, I am more determined than ever not only to serve with honor, not only to show compassion and concern for the people of this country but to enact the programs that are going to help the young people and lead them to a new prosperity and a new hope. We have literally changed the world. These kids go to bed at night without the same fear of nuclear war that their mothers and their dads and their older brothers and their sisters had. That is dramatic change. And because of our leadership we are, indeed, the most respected nation in the world. Now help me take that same leadership and lift up the American people, because our best days are ahead. We are the United States. May God bless the United States of America. Thank you all very, very much. What a great rally. Thank you. Audience members. Four more years! Four more years! Four more years!”
