I find it hard to believe it's straight from his head. If so, we need to clone him.
The balance and flow of his speeches are magnificent.
I don't even think about his looks, anymore with all his patriotic brilliance shining through.
If his closing speeches are ever published, I'm adding them to my library, and buying copies for my grandkids.

I would tell him I want his babies, but I don't like antagonizing his wife, and I think my husband would object.

Thank you, George, for posting this. I was not able to be home at the time it was televised.

For those who don't have time for the entire speech, skip ahead to about 15:00 and listen to the end. You'll get the gist of it in the last 4 minutes.
