But i am watching over everybody, jerry. Youre in good hands, okay . Thank you. Youre in good hands, believe me. You can tell the people of new york. Even though i didnt win new york state. I should have won new york state, but i didnt. Mr. President , cathy. I want to return to a conversation we had with ivanka, dean and wilbur on jobs, the work force of the future.
