I’ve just received a call from Secretary Hilary Clinton. She congratulated us, it’s about us, on our victory
and I congratulated her and her family about a very, very, hard-fought campaign. I mean she, she fought
very hard.
Hilary has worked very long and very hard over a long period of time and we owe her a major debt of
gratitude for her service to our country. I mean that very sincerely. Now it’s time for America to
bind the wounds of division; we have to get together.
To all Republicans and Democrats and independants across this nation, I say it is time for us to come
together as one, united people. It’s time!
