So wonderful to meet you. Yes, James.
So nice to meet you. It's an honor. Nice meeting you. I need you to learn how to cut a rug. Okay.
>> [laughter] >> Understood. Okay, I'll do it on your 100th birthday.
All right, you got it. You got it. You got it filmed. All right.
You got to hold politicians accountable for their promises.
And there's so much that needs to be done. And there's lots and lots that has to be taught. Yeah. And I know things are better, but they can get a heck of a lot better than they are.
Amen. So, [snorts] you young people keep working at it. Yeah. Well, we're going to follow your lead. And us old folk I'll keep pushing. Please do.
That's right. I'm going to be around here to show some youngsters how it's how it's done for a little while longer.
So, I'm going to keep on working.
Keep on walking and talking.
And somebody's going to listen. We'll be there walking with you.
I'm going to be around here to urge you to do it even if I am coming up on a 100. [laughter] You stay honest. Oh, I'm going to be here to see that some things are done. That's right.
Well, thank you, Dr. Lee. This is so wonderful to meet you. It's really an honor. Really. It's one of the highlights of the campaign trail. How about that? Definitely.
Well, put your cameras up and get to the table and see >> [laughter] >> if you can find you something to eat.
