Thirty-four years ago, I came here as the sun was setting late one evening and I was married to a lovely lady in this city in St. Mark's Church, in downtown San Antonio.
It is a delight to come back to San Antonio and to see so many friendly and familiar faces.
In that pursuit, Mr. President, United States support will be gladly given.
I hope to some day be able to come there and see you in your own land, in your own atmosphere.
