Thank you for being with us. This is the future. Dr. Cheney has focused most of her life on teaching children American History. So that the next generation can learn from the past. Before i introduced her we had a surprise guest from wyoming last night. I would like dr. Cheneys husband of 52 years to please stand up. Vice president cheney. [applause] thank you so much for coming. It means a lot to me. Well, i am honored to introduce this morning the distinguished speaker. When i called her last year to invite her she said am i the only speaker who has not won a Pulitzer Prize . I said, yes. But you are the only speaker who is chairman of the National Endowment of the humanities for seven years and you are the only speaker who was second lady of United States of america for eight years. [applause] if you google her you will be blown away by all of her awards and accomplishments. As always i am not going to list all of those. While she was head of neh she published american memory a repo
Remember it, but ill remember that for the rest of my life. I think certainly when we think about the Vice President , we could center on another one worn abiding, an enduring commitment to justice. His whole public life could be could be summarized in that word, in the commitment that hes had to justice. We could quote from the bible, blessed are they who hunger and thirst for justice, for they shall be satisfied. Im not sure joe biden has ever been satisfied yet with justice. Hes always pursuing it, always trying to bring justice to a problem or to a situation or to the life of a fellow citizen. We think of what st.

So id like to ask the audience here in the theater to please refrain from applause or any partisan d
This is a coup detat. 14 million citizens in private ballots picked donald trump. 20 tv executives decided to destroy him. True, the media is rigged. It was rigged for trump all year. He got more free media than the weather. Dwarfing not just the primary foes but hillary as well. If it wasnt for the media, we would have a different candidate. It was rigged and it gave us trump. He should be grateful. Now he gets the same coverage but its soaked in Opposition Research. Could it be the media propelled him to the top knowing he would be easy to bring down later . Short answer, yes. Long answer, hell, yes. It feels like trump is blaming the refs before the game is played anticipating a loss. Its a signal the worst kind of liberal identity politics has spread beyond its borders. We know liberal bias exists. It used to be the left were the victimhood kings. Now trump has stolen their act running as the champion of the cheated. Thanks to trump, now theres competition. Dana, creating this ment
