00:00Yes, Miriam Anaka from NHK.
00:05I was just wondering whether you could share some more details about what we can expect
00:09from Governor Walz's speech tonight?
00:11Yeah, listen, I'm not going to get ahead of the governor's speech tonight, but I think
00:15what you can expect writ large is sort of a cementing of this introductory frame, right?
00:19He's been on the stump for about two weeks so far since the vice president announced
00:24him as her running mate, and they've obviously gotten busy crisscrossing the country going
00:29to all the battleground states.
00:30Again, you've seen the enthusiasm from the crowds from places like Eau Claire, Wisconsin,
00:35Detroit, Phoenix, Las Vegas, and then, of course, even last night right up the road
00:42in Milwaukee.
00:43And again, as I'll say, we're even more excited about the fact that we're turning that energy
00:47and enthusiasm into volunteer action right now.
00:50But he's only been on the stump for two weeks, and so the vast majority of the American people
00:56on a wider sloth of the electorate is going to have the opportunity to fully understand
01:00and get to know who Governor Walz is, right?
01:02As somebody who was a school teacher, a football coach, and then obviously has been a congressman
01:08and a governor for some time now, the through line there is going to be that Governor Walz
01:13has always been somebody who's fought for the vulnerable, who's fought for those in
01:17need, who's taken on special interests for the benefit of the people that he represents.
01:21And so the American people will have an opportunity to see that in prime time tonight.
01:26Many for the very first time, and we're excited about it.
