in as many districts as we thought nine months ago. it s really a problem for his political capital. you said ut tlut. no. michael bennett in colorado. oh. another person that the white house is backing who s struggling very hard. okay. all right, ladies. thank you very much as always. okay. thank you. a.b. stoddard, kliff. there s a 16-year-old girl back on land for the first time in seven months after becoming the youngest person to sail around the world by herself nonstop and unassisted. imagine that. jessica s reunion was filmed by australian camera crews and that was the first time jessica had set foot on land in 210 days. i m completely overwhelmed. i just don t know what to think and what to say at the moment, so it s all a bit much. but absolutely amazing. derek frese is an expert in boating and sailing instruction. can you put this feat into
perspective for us? a 16-year-old girl doing this over a seven-month period by herself. well, it is really a remarkable achievement and there s many things she has to deal with in that 210-plus days. sensory deprivation, problem solving, rogue waves, knockovers, just the whole, the whole thing. it s quite a remarkable achievement. and derek, a lot of people were saying she is never going to come home alive. so imagine the kind of training to allow her parents to even embark on this in the first place. give me an idea of what she had to do. well, you know, i think it is a tough call for parents. and, you know, you send your daughter out to achieve something notable but yet there s really large risk. if she happens to perish or takes a knockdown or doesn t recover, boy, that s an occasion that would be tough for parents if she doesn t come home. in terms of her technical skills, look at that boat.
