However in rare cases, the Vice President is not relegated to obscurity. Namely when the president the previous president dies. And his newest, best New Y
I stand before you without a single pledge or promise or understanding of any kind except for the advancement of your cause and the preservation of american democracy. And as your nominee i expect to conduct by crusading an aggressive, fighting campaign. The republicans in we want willkie, Wendell Willkie ran for president in 1940. And as we watch some of the images of him on the campaign trail were joined here in rushville, indiana with david willkie. I want you to introduce our audience to some of the fervor were seeing from these Iconic Images of the 1940 campaign that really surrounded your grandfather as he ran for president and tried to defeat franklin dellanor roosevelt, who was seeking a third term. What an exciting time in the country.

After what weve seen at the white house this week the only place pence should be allowed to debate is inside an aquarium made of purelle.

Out of the army and say, im checking myself out of this hospital then he very carefully walk down the steps to his car. Look how he pats the banister like a puppy.
