I am delighted to be with your great Senator and my great friend, Strom Thurmond.

And now people are going to decide: Who do I trust to be the leader of the free world and the United States? I wonder if any of you saw the debate last night. Well, I think---- Audience members. George Bush! George Bush! George Bush!
