Bob, thank you for your service. Simply, bob, thank you for your service. That encompassed so many different things. It did not say 1983 Social Security. It was just that people really thank him. Every once in a while, there was a hi, pat, too. Thank you for joining us. I appreciate that. Bob dole at the world war ii memorial, he is like a mother hen. The word gets out that bob dole is here and they all flock to him wherever he is. Then the stories start. Sometimes for the first time the veteran tells a story he has never told anybody before. And it becomes a very emotional thing. Hes almost like the minister or the priest or something. People come up to him and want to tell him a story because they know he has been there, and they know he is responsible for that memorial. That is quite a thing to watch. Very emotional. Thank you for being with us on American History tv. You bet. Thank you. [applause] my colleagues in the Senate Special family former staff , members, and guests, but es

That is quite a thing to watch. Very emotional. Thank you for being with us on American History tv. You bet. Thank you. [applause] my colleagues in the senate our special family former staff members, and guests, but especially our good friend senator bob dole, and his lovely bride elizabeth, welcome home. It seems quite natural seeing you here. [applause] i should have asked senator dole to come up and join us on the platform, but somehow or other i thought he should sit in the leaders seat right there with elizabeth. I want to welcome you all again to the sixth presentation in the leaders lecture series. This has been an exciting series. We have had some fantastic presentations from great leaders of the senate.

It tested me, but taught me lessons that may help your family. And although it was capable of taking me away from those i hold most dear, in the end it brought us closer. Ive seen a lot of Seasons Change in my time. But as i like to say, more sunny days than may
