KENNEDY America was

a great force in the world

with immense prestige

long before we became

a great military power.

And that power has come to us,

and we cannot renounce it.

But neither can we afford

to forget

that the real constructive force

in this world

comes not from tanks

or not from bombs

but from the imaginative ideas,

the warm sympathies

and the generous spirit

of a people.

One thing is clear

in this year of 1968,

I believe, in this country

as I've traveled across,

and that is that the American

people want no more Vietnam.

California

can make the difference.

Test one, two. Test one, two.

Miss, uh, Jan... Jana...

Janacek.

Yes. Perhaps I need to

remind you, Miss, uh?

- Janacek.

- Exactly.

That there is a law

against loitering.

I've been in this lobby

for the past two days

waiting for my interview

with Senator Kennedy.

Miss...

there are no rooms available

at the hotel,

and no records

of your credentials

with regards to the senator's

press corps.

What does this look like?

I write for an

international publication.

Rude Pravo.

Well, it's not exactly

the Washington Post, now, is it?

D I was born in Little Rock d

d Had a childhood sweetheart d

d We were always hand in hand d

d I wore high-top shoes

and shirttails d

- d Suzy was in pigtails... d

Excuse me.

Hi, um, I have an appointment

for a manicure-pedicure.

Oh.

Yup. And you are...

our lovely bride-to-be.

Yes, ma'am.

Well, let me see 'em.

Excuse me?

Oh.

Oh...

You know he's gonna

break it tonight, man.

What?

Drysdale, consecutive shutouts,

it's gonna happen tonight.

Yeah, maybe.

You don't know

how important this is, Miguel.

Jose, it's one baseball game.

You can buy tickets

to another night.

What?!

No, no, no, no.

It's not just a game, okay?

Don Drysdale has pitched

five consecutive shutouts.

That's a record

that has stood since 1904

by Doc White

of the Chicago White Sox.

He's gonna break it

tonight, man.

I know he is.

Who, Drysdale?

Yeah.

You got money on the game, Jose?

No, I'm-I'm just a fan.

Well, then, go Dodgers.

Yeah.

I need to see you in my office.

I'm supposed to tell the staff

to go to their polling place

today and vote.

I'm not old enough to vote.

I'm a felon.

You're a felon?

Nah, I'm just kidding, brother.

'Course I'm gonna vote today.

D A-one, a-two, a-one, two... d

Now, listen, a lot of people,

a lot of people are

gonna be intimidated

by this thing because it's new,

all right?

So I'm counting on all of you

to reassure them

that it's perfectly legitimate,

it's easy...

Just-just for one minute,

please.

It's easy, and it makes voting

simpler and quicker, all right?
