| Description | Mr. Chairman, Delegates to this Convention, my fellow Americans:
I have made many speeches in my life, and never have I found it more difficult to find the words adequate to express what I feel as I find them tonight.
To stand here before this great Convention, to hear your expressions of affection for me, for Pat, for our daughters, for my mother, for all of us who are representing our Party, is, of course, the greatest moment of my life.
I just want you to know that my only prayer as I stand here is that in months ahead I may be in some way worthy of the affection and the trust which you have presented to me on this occasion in everything that I say, everything that I do, everything that I think in this campaign and afterwards. |
