I Do Believe That The Buck Stops Here, That I Cannot Rely Upon Public Opinion Polls To Tell Me What Is Right. I Do Believe That Right Makes Might And That If I Am Wrong, 10 Angels Swearing I Was Right Would Make No Difference. I Do Believe, With All My Heart And Mind And Spirit, That I, Not As President But As A Humble Servant Of God, Will Receive Justice Without Mercy If I Fail To Show Mercy.

I Am The First To Admit That I Am No Great Orator Or No Person That Got Where I Have Gotten By Any William Jennings Bryan Technique.

The Tough Decisions That A President Has To Make In The Oval Office Are In No Way Related To The Capability Of A Person To Do Well On Television. On The Other Hand, The Capability Of A Person To Project Favorably On Television Enhances That Person's Odds Of Being Elected So He Can Serve In The Oval Office. So You Can't Ignore The Talents, One, To Be Very Effective On Television, And On The Other Hand, To Be Very Effective As An Operating President.

It's The Quality Of The Ordinary, The Straight, The Square, That Accounts For The Great Stability And Success Of Our Nation. It's A Quality To Be Proud Of. But It's A Quality That Many People Seem To Have Neglected.

In All My Public And Private Acts As Your President, I Expect To Follow My Instincts Of Openness And Candor With Full Confidence That Honesty Is Always The Best Policy In The End.
