>>Four years ago, I said to the people of Virginia that I was proud to be a Virginian.
I did not think then that my pride could ever be possibly greater, and in theory it isn't, but in reality, that pride does burst forth and lifts my voice and my spirit to acclaim so that I can say to you today that I am a son of Virginia.
Thank you and God bless all of you.
(audience applauding) >>It's a great day for Virginia.
