I want to thank Hillary Clinton for asking Anne and I to join this wild ride. We — about a week before she asked if I would be her running mate, Anne and I went up to Westchester and we sat down with Hillary and Bill and with Chelsea and Mark and with Charlotte and Aiden for about three hours of conversation to try to determine whether we would be the right people to be on the ticket.
And when we got in the car to head back to the airport after the three hour discussion, I said to Anne, “Honey, I don’t know whether we’re going to be on this ticket or not, but I do know this, we’re going to remember that three hours for the rest of our life.” And now, we’ve — we’ll remember 105 days that we’ve had with this fantastic couple of public servants and all of you for the rest of our life.
