For your sake, for their sake.

For the sake of aII the youngsters who've been scared

by the votes from Dade to Eugene.

On the Statue of Liberty, it says,

''Give me your tired, your poor, your huddIed masses yearning to be free. ''

(ALL CHEERlNG)

''AII men are created equaI and endowed with certain inaIienabIe rights. ''

So, for Mr. Briggs,

no matter how hard you try,

you can never erase those words from the DecIaration of Independence!

No matter how hard you try, you can never chip those words

from the base of the Statue of Liberty!

That is where America is!

Love it or Ieave it!

Okay, the mayor says Briggs is on his way here and that he could intercept him for us.

We could get him face to face. Go get the press.
