00:00The other thing, we're really excited to see the programming, the shows that are coming,
00:03that will be a highlight of American excellence and of American culture and American entertainment.
00:09And just so you know the influence that American culture has around the world in a positive way,
00:13a few months ago, the president hosted the prime minister of Italy down in Florida,
00:19and her English is excellent, very good English.
00:23And I asked her, why is your English so good? It was really good.
00:27You know what she said? You know how she learned English?
00:30Michael Jackson.
00:32Not from him, not like personally. He wasn't doing the lessons from his music.
00:37But what it tells you is the impact that American culture has on the world in such a positive way,
00:43and it can have such an influence. And the Kennedy Center is a showcase for it.
00:46So we're excited to see what you're leading here and all of you contributing towards that.
00:52And we're excited to see also the restoration of that building that really should be a showcase
00:56and something that we're proud of, that when people come to Washington,
00:59when people come to America, they want to see the shows that reflect the greatness of our culture
01:03and society and in a building run by an organization that is reflective of excellence as well.
01:09So it's an honor to be here tonight.
01:11And I want to thank all of you for contributing to this because it's important that this board
01:15and everyone that's involved in it and Rick and his team are doing a great job of making sure
01:19that your dollars and everything you've made possible will be well spent.
01:22So we'll have a treasure in our hands.
