in fact, i don't know whether you heard, but governor george president,rsed me as and he will be campaigning across this state and country for me, and we are going to go to a convention. saying it for months. and when we get to that convention, and when the delegates enter the hall, because i was there in 76, and i thought a convention that was contested. the delegates will think about two things. number one, who can win in the fall? about who can win a nomination, this is about who can defeat hillary clinton. and number two, because of the importance those delegates are going to inherit at that convention, they are also going to ask themselves, who, at the end of the day has the experience and the record and the ability to bring this country together? who can be the best president of the united states. i maintain to you, i will leave cleveland as the nominee. it will happen. thank you new york, i love you.
