In this video, you're going to learn how to talk about activities that involve movement using the structure go plus verb and ing. This is a must know structure. Of course, I'm Jennifer from jforisenglish.com and this channel is dedicated to helping you sound like a fluent, confident, natural English speaker. Now before we go any further, make sure you subscribe and hit that bell icon so you're notified every time I post a new lesson. Now let's dive in with this video. Let's talk about how to use the sentence structure go plus verb and ing. Now this is a sentence structure that we use in very specific situations and that one situation is when we're talking about an activity that involves physical movement. So a lot of these are just the physical activities that you do as leisure activities. Now when we talk about these, we don't follow our basic English sentence structure, which is subject plus verb plus infinitive, which is to and verb. So for example, I don't say I go to hike every Sunday. Go is our verb. And in the regular sentence structure, the following verb would be in the infinitive, which is what you see here. But this is incorrect. We need our jaren verb, which is simply a verb with ing. This is an alternative sentence structure, an irregular sentence structure that we only use in specific cases with verbs of physical activity and movement is one of those cases. So I need to say I go hiking, I take my verb hike, and I simply put it in the jaren form with ing. I go hiking every Sunday. That's the correct sentence structure. So just remember that this sentence structure is subject plus go plus jaren plus verb and ing. Now remember that go is our active verb, and we're going to conjugate it according to the subject and the time reference. So when I say I go hiking every Sunday, that's my verb to go in the present simple conjugated with the subject I because I'm talking about a routine. But let's say my time reference is yesterday. It would be yesterday I went hiking. So remember our active verb go is the one that's going to change and be conjugated with the subject and time reference, but the following verb, the jaren verb doesn't change is going to stay in that jaren form. Yesterday I went hiking. Now I could change my subject and change my time reference, and I could say today, but as a future event, today she's going hiking. So here my verb go is in the present continuous and is conjugated with the subject she, but still hiking doesn't change. So remember that it doesn't matter what your subject is or your time references. The verb go is going to be conjugated, but the verb in jaren form, your physical activity is not going to change. Now you're probably wondering what activities can I use this structure with. So I'm going to give you a list of the most common. This isn't an exhaustive list. There may be others not on this list. So if you can think of one that isn't on this list, put it in the comments. So let's review this list together. Running, jogging, hiking, camping, canoeing, kayaking, diving, boating, shopping, snowboarding, skiing, climbing, fishing, surfing, horseback riding. There the verb is riding. Horseback just describes what type of riding, but our verb is riding. Horseback riding and dancing. Again, there may be other verbs of movement and physical activity that aren't on this list. If you can think of any, please put them in the comments below. Now before you go, let's look at one advanced change to this sentence structure. Okay? Let's look at this sentence. I could say, I enjoy going hiking. Hmm. What's going on here? Now you see two gerenes. The verb go is in the jaren form, verb ing, and then hiking, our activity is in the jaren form. So always remember that the verb go needs to be conjugated according to the sentence structure. Okay? So here I have I enjoy. Now enjoy is a verb, but not just any verb. It's a jaren verb, which means the verb that comes next in this case go. That's the verb that comes next. It needs to be conjugated in the jaren form. So when you look at this sentence, we have two gerenes. Go is in the jaren form because it follows the verb enjoy, which is a jaren verb. Hiking is in the jaren form because it follows the verb go. And in the context of go plus physical activity, that verb of physical activity is in the jaren form. So as you become more advanced with English, you'll need to identify what's going on in a sentence. If this example is too advanced for you, that's okay. You can just focus on the information I said before and just forget about this one. But if you are at that level where you're nodding your head and you understand me, that's awesome. It shows you have an advanced understanding of English grammar and sentence structure. And if you're not there yet, don't worry, you will be one day. So now you have everything you need to talk about verbs of physical activity and movement is your turn to practice. I want you to leave three example sentences. Now all three examples have to use different verbs of activity or physical activity movement, different subjects, and different time references as well. So I want you to get comfortable conjugating that verb with a subject and time reference. So put those examples in the comments. I can't wait to read them.

In his great book Capitalism, Socialism, and Democracy, the economist Joseph Schumpeter offered a scathing critique of current day intellectuals by which he meant professional writers, politicians, think tankers, and others who try to influence public opinion, the same group of people Hayek would later call the second hand dealers in ideas. As Schumpeter pointed out, one thing that characterizes these intellectuals is the absence of direct responsibility for practical affairs. In other words, these people don't know much about the world of business, the world of commerce, the world of everyday ordinary activities. This absence of direct responsibility leads to an absence of firsthand knowledge about how the economy works. According to Schumpeter, the critical attitude of these intellectuals towards capitalism arises no less from the intellectual status as an onlooker, in most cases also as an outsider, than from the fact that his main chance of asserting himself lies in his actual or potential nuisance value. I was reminded of this quote when reading some of the reactions to Monday's US Supreme Court decision, in the case Burwell versus Hobby Lobby. The Supreme Court ruled in a five to four decision that the 1993 Religious Freedom Restoration Act, which had exempted churches and some religious organizations from particular provisions of President Obama's Affordable Care Act, also applied to for-profit companies, at least small closely held for-profit companies. Now much of the reaction has been very animated on both sides, with some viewing this decision as a victory for religious liberty, others viewing it as an attack on affordable health care, an attack on reproductive freedom, and even an attack on women. However, this case was ultimately not about gender or about reproduction or about health, but about property rights, namely the rights of business owners to offer whatever compensation packages to employees they choose. And employees are free to accept those offers, to try to negotiate them or to reject them and try to work for another company. In other words, everyone in a free market is able to negotiate and barter and offer for whatever kinds of compensation packages they want. No one is compelled to offer anything, and no one is compelled to accept any particular job. The Progressive Website Think Progress had an interesting commentary on this case, arguing that in fact the decision was harmful to religious liberty. It protected only the religious liberty of a few wealthy individuals, such as the owners of Hobby Lobby. According to Think Progress, the pro-Hobby Lobby decision isn't about protecting religious liberty. Instead, it's just a victory for one kind of religion, specifically the usually conservative faith of those privileged enough to own and operate massive corporations, those privileged enough to own and operate massive corporations. Think about this concept of privilege. This is something we hear often today, where people are urged to quote-unquote check their privilege and see if they're benefiting from any sort of bias that operates in their favor, even without them realizing it. Now, what does it mean to say that the owners of Hobby Lobby are protected because they're privileged enough to own a large company? Hobby Lobby was founded by a man named David Green in 1970 in Oklahoma City. He started a home business assembling picture frames using a $300 loan. He then purchased a very small store. He grew it into a local and then a regional chain. His first store opened in 1972, had annual sales of $3,200. By 1989, Hobby Lobby had grown to 15 stores. By June of 2014, the chain had 561 stores throughout the United States and over $2 billion in annual revenue. Now, nothing stops a writer from think progress or any other website from taking out a small loan, starting a company in their basement, trying to grow it into a larger company, and maybe eventually having control over a large nationwide corporate empire. Nothing except their lack of ability, I might add. The think progress writer would then be free to offer whatever combination of salary, fringe benefits, and other rewards he or she wishes to offer to workers. All that's required is some entrepreneurial initiative, 80, 100-hour weeks for many years, slowly and gradually attempting to build a business into a larger enterprise. In other words, Mr. Green was not privileged enough to inherit Hobby Lobby from a rich uncle. He didn't grow up with a trust fund. He was an ordinary middle class guy who invested time and energy and a lot of hard work into creating this company. If this is privileged, then we should all be so privileged as to put forth that much effort to build a company. Those who operate businesses in a free market society do so in order to satisfy consumer wants. Those who are the most successful are those who provide goods and services that benefit us, the consumers. And in the process, they benefit large numbers of workers, suppliers, distributors, and others. So thank goodness people like Mr. Green are willing to do the hard work to create large enterprises that make all of us better off.


Alright, everybody. What is going on? Welcome back to another video.  I'm really excited to bring you guys this video today. You know, results are there. There's been times where I've second guessed myself. I wake up feeling skinny, feeling, you know, weak in the gym, but having that plan, trusting the process, you'll get the results. And so here we are four weeks in. We've got two more weeks to go to really, really tighten it up. But, you know, I am really happy with how things are going. It's been four weeks of hard dieting. I'm not going to lie. It's not easy to lose body fat.  And those are the times that you really want to extend that feeling if you want to do it in the most efficient way possible. Possibly not the most effective, but definitely the most efficient. So what I really wanted to bring you guys through this series was my transformation in six weeks. I wanted to show you guys what was possible in just six weeks. Whilst I've been doing this, I've been thinking to myself and I'm like, well, someone coming on with me, you know, someone who hasn't dieted before, who hasn't sort of trained hard in the gym before, they would not be wanting to do things as fast or as, you know, drastically as I have. So I think going forward, I think the transformation package that I'm going to offer clients is going to be a 12 week transformation, not a six week transformation. And with that said, I may even continue this transformation for 12 weeks, just to show you guys exactly what can be achieved. But for now, we're going to stick with six weeks. We've got our measurement table here. As you can see, neck, shoulders, chest. It's hard to read that backwards. Neck, shoulders, chest, waist, left arm, right arm, left thigh, right thigh, left calf, right calf. As you can see, day one, we took all our measurements. Day 14, we took measurements again. And here we are at day 28. And we're going to take our measurements once again. Now, I did mention this in the last video, it does take a little bit of time. You know, it might take five, 10 minutes. But the thing you want to make sure of is that, you know, wherever you're putting the tape measure around, this is what it looks like, something like this. Okay, wherever you're putting it around, whether that be your neck or your arm or leg, make sure it's in the same spot as the last time. Insistency is key, not only with diet and training, but also with measuring your progress. Progress pictures need to be in the same lighting, same spot, same time of day, same angle of the camera. You need your measurements to be around the exact same spots to get the exact, you know, consistent measurements. And of course, the weight as well. When you're taking your weight, you want to be on the same scale. You don't want to be using all different scales. You know, some scales can be two kilos different from the other. Really can be. And so the scale I've been using is the one down at the gym. This morning, I got up, I put my track pants on, I put a t-shirt on and I went down to the gym and I took my weight. So here it is. So I'm going to call that 93.15 kilos. The first weigh in we had was 99.1. After two weeks, it was 95.2. And now after another two weeks, it's 93.15. Now, I did have track pants on. If I took them off, it would have been 92. something. So, you know, we're definitely making progress. We're definitely losing weight. Now weight is important, of course. And I've got to be honest with you guys. I have weighed myself probably every second day, but I don't think it's necessary because after two weeks, you know, after two days of hard training, my weight can actually be higher than it was before. So I know personally that it's all to do with water weight. It's to do with how many carbs I've ingested, how much glycogen I'm holding. There's a shitload of variables when it comes to your weight. But what you can't change is your measurements. All right, you really can't. So with that said, like I've shown you, here we are. We're about to fill in column number three, which I'm really excited about. So right now I'm going to do that. I'm going to get my measurements. And I'll see you guys back here in about 10 minutes. All right. Peace. Next minute. Okay. All right, we've got the measurements. To be honest. Yeah, I'm really happy. Here they are here. I'm just taking them. But they're extremely messy. So what we're gonna do, we're gonna put them on my little table here. And you're gonna watch me. So let's do that. I do, I do have a little bit of OCD.  And the fact that I have to change from a black to a blue pen halfway through, really doesn't agree with me. But what do you do? Begas can't be choosers. Let's do it. These are my measurements. Nick, we started at 17 inches. Four weeks later, we're at 16 inches. Shoulders, we started at 53.25. Four weeks later, we're at 51.25. Chest was 47 inches. Now it's 45.5. Waist was 36 inches. Two weeks ago, it was 34.5. Today, it's 33.5. Left arm, 16.5 inches at the start. Today, it's 16.25. Right arm, 16.5. Today, it's 16.25. Left thigh started at 25.5 inches. Today, it's at 25 even. Right thigh, once again, 25.5. Today, it's at 25 inches even. Left calf started at 15.5. Today, it's 15.5. Right calf, 15.5. Today is 15.5. And so overall, overall, it seems in the last two weeks, my waist has come down. My chest has actually increased by a quarter of an inch. And everything else is pretty much the same, except for my thighs.  And so I haven't been able to train legs these four weeks, I've probably trained them once properly. And then since then, this little injury has been flaring up. So I'll go and start to do squats or leg press. And I can't. So I'll do calves instead. And to be honest, guys, I've pretty much put all of my effort that I normally put into leg day into doing calves. So because I just really don't want them to get any smaller, I'm not going to lie, like 15 and a half inches is the smallest of pretty much ever been. And so the leaner I get, the smaller they're going to get. So I thought I'd better start training them. I hadn't trained calves in two years. All right, I hadn't trained them in two years. So in two years, without training them, they had shrunk from 16 down to 15 and a half, which is not too bad. You know, I got to say, I got to admit, as you guys know, calf development is very, very dependent on your genetics, unfortunately. But anyways, that is the measurements progress pictures. I took them this morning. They're right here. Okay, once again, like I keep saying one from the front, run from this side, one from the back, and one from the other side. So that is the progress pictures that is the measurements that is the weight. The last thing we're going to talk about is diet.  And next minute I start talking about something else and put my phone down. So to be honest, I want to tell you guys, let's look at the macros, but I don't have any macros. I don't have any data. Okay. So personally, I've done this so many times I've bulked so many times I've cut so many times. I can eyeball my food, I really can. And I'm eating pretty much the same stuff every single day. The one thing that really helps me with dieting is intermittent fasting. Okay, and so for me to talk about my diet, really the only thing I can really talk about is the structure of my diet. Okay, because I don't know exactly how many grams of protein or carbs or fats I'm having how many calories. But I would say it's under 2500 calories that seems to be the amount that you know, if I go too far under that my performance dips, my my strength dips, you know, I feel weak all the time 2500 calories for my body at six foot one. And you know, 95 or so kilo seems to be a pretty good amount to cut on. I wouldn't want to go any lower than that. If I had to say calories 2500, if I had to say protein, definitely at least 200 grams a day. And the rest of my food is is made up of carbs and fats, intermittent fasting, the way I've been doing it, I'll get up at 630. I'll get to work at seven. I won't have my first meal until 12 or one. Okay, I finished work at seven o'clock. I've had two meals. I'll come home have a pre workout, go to the gym, train, come home. After probably having eaten only about 1000 calories trained. And then I'll have my, you know, big meal for the day. You want to call that carb back loading? Do it. Okay, because that is pretty much what I'm doing. I'm training on basically protein and fats.  So yeah, there's there's so many ways to do it. There's so many ways to do it. I've got a plan. I've put it in place and it's working. I want to help you guys do the exact same thing. So anyways, I am actually sticking to macros. I am sticking to calories. I'm just not recording it. Okay, but for you guys who have never done it before, you need a plan, you need to trust the plan. And so that's why I'm going to advocate for you to track your calories and macros. Not only that, but you get so much knowledge. I know all the stuff about food. I know how many I can I can look at a meal with four or five different ingredients in it and still be able to calculate pretty accurately how many fats, carbs and protein are in that because it's just through experience. It is through, it's through practice, it's through experience. I have used my fitness pal religiously for three years up until about two years ago when I decided no, I don't need it anymore. I can eyeball my stuff now as long as I stick under a certain amount of calories 2500 and as long as I stay on above a certain amount of protein, which is 200 grams, I'm sweet. Anyways, guys, that is the update for day 28. We've got the photos in the bank. We've got the measurements. We've got the weight and I cannot wait to just knuckle down these next two weeks and show you guys an epic six week transformation because it's coming man. It really is. I'm not going to show you guys right now, but yeah, we're getting there. Like I said, I did say at the start, my goal is to get my waist down from 36 inches where it was at the beginning of this, which is way too high down to like 32 or below and that would just completely change the way my physique looks.  So that's a goal. So I know I've talked too much. I hope you've learned something. If not, it's not my fault. If you've made it to the end of this video, hit the like button. Just do it for me and tell me about it. Give me a comment too.  And that's all I got to say until next time guys have a great night or a great day wherever you are in the world, train hard, eat well, and I'll see you guys in the next one.


What is going on guys welcome back to the channel critical over here some time a halloween ends in this video here today now the teaser That I was supposed to come out later today actually came out Actually came out yesterday Because of the fact by the time you see this by the time you see this view is probably like 1 a.m Because I was gonna aim to have it at 12 30. It's not gonna be 12 There's probably gonna be 1 a.m. By the time you hear this the teaser apparently started getting leaked So universal just like with halloween kills got ahead of the game. They've released the teaser early It was released late last night at around or late tonight around like 9 or 10 or so I saw it as soon as I got on my note screening the teaser starts off with uh Us getting shots of Haddonfield people trick-or-treating A pov shot of someone stalking a house walking up to a house going into the house. We hear heavy breathing They go upstairs It is presumed to be Michael Myers But then their hand starts opening the door into a bedroom And then we were we are shown Michael Myers And the room he's opening the door to reveals lord strode standing behind him who's wearing this outfit That's clearly an homage to what she wore during the finale of the 1978 movie holding a gun ready to shoot him Now I want people to pay attention to something here I don't I'm sure other people have pointed this out when he goes to open the door That's completely different than what we were just seeing So I think there's a strong chance that what we saw was maybe that quarry character going up the stairs and doing Whatever it is that has the town of Haddonfield Thinking they are somehow just like Michael Myers because when Michael is shown opening the door That room that we see lorry in It's a it's a it's a clever teaser trick in another another trick You'll see them do all the time with trailers too The frames don't line up when looking at some of the surroundings between The person going up the stairs and then the shot of lorry with the gun That's not a bedroom. She's standing and what happened to the bed. I just saw I'm pretty sure I saw a bed And it literally looked like a bedroom So I like that transition there because I don't think many people are going to pick up on that I really think that this is that quarry character who's supposed to be like a new Michael Myers character that Rohan Campbell's playing Presumably has a big connection to Alice in since she has a big role in the movie as well Maybe that I I'm going to just say they're probably dating most likely the teas are all in all I was impressed by it I again that was a brilliant transition the cinematography. I've seen it Loved it the tones and the huge the or the the hues of the the blue And stuff like that very much so reminiscent of what we saw in the 1978 movie. I loved that type of stuff We were seeing there It was again Mostly a lot of what was shown at CinemaCon without also being a complete retread I guess of what they showed at CinemaCon Because I know it wasn't a complete rematch going off the descriptions from the CinemaCon footage and what they released They shook a few things up They we did get like a blurb of stuff that was kind of acting like a recap of what we already know It hyped up their saga ending that of course being Michael Myers and Laurie Strode We got the kitchen brawl highlighted. Laurie gets launched across the table. I have seen some people got a pick up on I guess Michael has his his hands or not hands. He had both his hands always his fingers grew back I hope that's not the case because that's that's not how that works Then again, again, that's of course something something minor in the grand scheme of things But yeah, your fingers don't grow back They don't grow back. So I hope that's not what what is going on and that his hands have somehow magically grown back But the teaser was again amazing. Jamie Lee Curtis looks amazing in the teaser I do want to say that I know some people are probably like they shouldn't be doing this because they're hyping up Laurie versus Michael and it's not going to be a Laurie versus Michael centered centered film Going off of what we've been told from people who have attended these test screenings I do want to say this while it may not be centered that way They still are doing a correct job at marketing the movie how it should be marketed to get the butts in the seats They know what you are coming to see So honestly at the end of the day Marketing your movie around this encounter that's inevitably going to happen I wouldn't say is a bad thing. It's the selling point. You're going to have a hopefully very compelling I know it's going to be different Narrative that is so that is related to this Cory character for a good chunk of the movie Laurie apparently doesn't have as big of a role as many people I guess thought she would have going into a movie called halloween in where you're going to have a final battle Between her and michael miers You're going to hopefully have a compelling narrative that introduces this new character named Cory who is the new michael miers type of character. I guess they had if it will be obsessing over Going using him to I guess talk about the commentary. They want to address like Evil and the embodiment of evil all these other aspects of how they might be comparing him to michael miers and all these questions that may be Arising because he's acting in a way that michael acted when he killed his sister judith So we'll see how that's all addressed and hopefully that's something that's more compelling than how I guess most people Think it is from what test screen erections are saying and it builds to this moment in which michael is back And again, I don't have a problem with us getting a movie where it seems like everyone doesn't know that michael's back I I think honestly would prefer something like that where they they're so focused on This other guy they forget about or they've completely forgotten about the person who actually still could be out there They've all told themselves maybe that michael is dead and he's not coming back But then they're treated to a grand surprise when it's revealed that michael is the one Doing all of this stuff around town not quarry and honestly again If it plays out like that that sounds heavily a lot like a a concept I know that dave mccray has done on his channel for halloween 5 So again, it depends on how it's executed because I I wouldn't be against something like that where you're playing up this idea Of michael we know michael's gonna come back obviously, but playing up this idea Of is this michael or is this quarry doing these killings now? Of course certain camera angles and stuff like that will give it away but Again, just somehow maybe if they can play that up a bit having you doubt that this is michael mire So we don't actually know how tall The character is supposed to be if anyone knows how tall rohan cambal is I guess you can chime in down in the Comment section below. I just think that would be something very compelling to do having us with a narrative in which you're having your audience question Whether this is actually michael or is it quarry and then at the very end Not necessarily the last 10 minutes or anything like that, but like the last maybe 30 minutes michael can be confirmed to be around town even but they don't know that he's back until maybe the last 30 minutes and it's just like this this This mind this momentum that builds and builds and builds to michael's appearance on screen It also just again depends on how the prior stuff They present to you before was handled Because some people I know they want a michael mire's filled movie. You basically got that with halloween kills So i'm not against a narrative like this. It just depends on how it's all executed the teaser that we got tonight amazing I loved it can't wait to see a trailer when that drops I want to know what you guys thought about the teaser down in the comment section below Are you excited for halloween ends if you haven't already of course make sure you go ahead and subscribe Turn on post notifications. You never miss a video in the description I will have links to all my social media accounts on facebook twitter and instagram You can message me there of course to limiters any movies news or reviews like me to cover in the future with all that in mind Guys, I will see you in the next video


what's going on is engraving here with another video and in this video wow what a game what a game what a game um so in my picks for this week i'm already 0-1 because i picked the purple team to win the game i picked the vikes to do the upset am i surprised that the vikings didn't upset no i'm not surprised but at the same time i was like okay i say um marcus peter's hurt keep to leave her i know they still got joining i know they still got that nasty defensive line but i said i'ma still roll with the upset roll with kurt cousins who i just do not like i feel like he's so overrated uh but roll with kurt cousins uh and then vikings to pull off the upset against the rams and they didn't do it but hey it's all good as is life um but anyway team keep it clean well quick me i mean graven vids this is my youtube channel engraving vids i'm a ravens fan as you can see so my team wears purple as well and hopefully they don't have the same outcome this sunday night that the other purple team that we just watched it uh but the this game went the complete opposite of how i thought it would go it went the complete opposite of how you thought it would go it went the complete opposite of how everybody thought it would go we got the rams who they went shopping this off season they went shopping this off season they went shopping heavy man they went and bought every single body at every single position they went hard man and they they were like i mean well i know i was about to say it's like this for every team but it's really not like this for every team i was gonna say they they in super bowl of bus mode um but it's like that for every team but when i thought about it i had to take that back because it's not like that for every team everybody's not in super bowl of bus mode some people are in rebuild mode and rebuild to hope that hope maybe we can contain but we honestly know that we're probably not we're just gonna get through this year and then maybe next year we'll do some things teams like the bills teams like the jets uh teams like the browns so but with uh with a team like the rams who was in the playoffs the previous year with a team like the rams who they they they just couldn't make enough happen especially on offense last year uh when they lost to the falcons i believe in the playoffs so a team like the rams what they did they said you know what we are going to assemble a team that just can't be beat we are going to assemble a team of all stars in every single position that can get the job done and more and we're gonna be unstoppable so they said you know what they they waited to the last second the last second to get a dino uh not a domicant stew and dino his money they got a domicant stew they got a marcus peters they got a keep to leave they even got sam shields they even brought back sam shields they still got brockers they tried to get a odell beckham jr they tried to get a khalil mech so the thing with the rams is that they had gotten so much better their roster had gotten so much better and to give uh wade phillips all those weapons that they their roster had gotten so much better and they still kept trying they still kept trying but either way um it was the side the side of the ball where they still tried there too because they got a brand and cooks they tried for odell beckham jr but that obviously didn't go through they re-signed tod girly and he proved tonight again why he was worth worth all of that money worth all of that money but jared golf jared golf he's growing up he's growing up oh i agree that he's growing up in this game really if we go back a couple years when jared golf i believe he went what number two overall and his rookie year uh was nothing special he didn't even start halfway through it uh but when he played he was he was a he was like like this is the number two overall pick like him jared golf that's him oh he was first overall even better well even worse for that year i'm like man that like him jared that's the this is the guy that the rams decided that they were gonna what him what is he who is he like what's what's that so then his second year uh shawn mcvay says hey guys hi i'm shawn i'm super young but i i feel like i can get the job done so shawn mcvay came in there and he completely changed it i think golf went last year what would he throw like 25 touchdowns and seven interceptions it was some some not ridiculous number but it was a very different uh the the ratio was great the ratio was great it was a 25 and four was a 21 and four whatever it was it was a great ratio his touchdown interception ratio so then shawn mcvay says hey jared how about we take it to the next level how about we take it to the next level and he was he's probably like hey jared what if i told you against the vikings remember that team last year that had such a great defense remember the team that this year that they the defense has been all right this year too they got all these cornerbacks uh they got the fast defensive line they got one of the best safeties in the league remember those guys what if i told you that we're gonna come up with a game plan for you to where you're gonna throw not one no not two not three not four not oh five five touchdowns in one game against the vikings five five five five five five touchdowns in one game against the vikings defense somebody would set that out oh i would have been like no no buddy ain't no golf ain't doing that golf ain't never throwing no touch no no five touchdowns in no game against anybody i don't care who it is i would have said that but wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong nfl you never know you never know what's gonna happen you never know you never know um so rams right now undefeated um vikings what are the vikings one one no one two and one right they won two and one what kind of weird record is that see how ties when when you don't finish the job they just throws everything off and they better hope that it doesn't come back to bite them they better hope that it doesn't come back to bite them uh case keen i mean not case you got me saying case keen him curt cousins oh i can't stand the but today he did do he did do pretty good he did do pretty good today um i can't lie even though i do not like curt cousins at all i think he's extremely overrated he did pretty good today he did his thing um and i know that both the rams and the vikings both curt cousins and jared golf was like man like what do i got to do for you guys to play some defense what do i got to do both of them had to be saying that every single time because it just every single time that is like okay we got a touchdown all right cool we could take a breather nope rams get a touchdown after that then rams get a touchdown uh golf is like okay we could take a breather let's chill let's relax for a little bit nope vikings get a touchdown and the same thing kept happening over and over and over and over and over and over um real quick while we talking about vikings shout out cousins did good with redskins but vikings he's not doing that's good i don't even think he did go with redskins man i ain't i thought curt cousins was one of those Matthew Stafford kind of guys one of the all his stats are from being behind in games it's them catch up games um so now i ain't i ain't buying that whole curt cousins thing man when when vikings signed him what was it was it three years 90 million something like that something crazy ridiculous disgusting ugly gosh i can't stand them i just anyway anyway um he but yeah tonight tonight he did pretty good but the defenses they just what's up and they the defenses would not do nothing they didn't they couldn't get no stops but then finally finally finally the rams defense said hey hold up who are we who how do we have brockers how do we have sue how do we have Aaron donald and then the rookie i honestly forgot his name i forgot his name i forgot his name but how do we have all these guys and we really letting curt cousins drive the field on us hold up they say wait a minute let's slow it down for a minute and then the rookie reached out oh franklin that's his name the rookie reached out curt cousins where's your pocket awareness you know that you have a certain certain amount of time especially against that defensive line where if if things ain't going your way if you don't see a play it's time you got to move you got to move and it's funny because the commentator even called out curt cousins on it he said oh we've seen curt cousins do this before he seems to struggle in these situations so well i usually don't agree with too much that a lot of these stupid commentators be saying but that was one where i was like oh yeah that's the curt cousins i know now now um something that the commentator did mention where i thought was very just dumb it was dumb if there were there were 40 seconds left there were 40 seconds left the clock had been stopped and the rams they had the ball no was the clock even stopped no it wasn't there were 40 seconds left i believe the rams had a first down yeah they had a first down clock was stopped no the clock was running excuse me rams got a first down 40 seconds left the clock was running the vikings had two timeouts so the commentator the commentator was like i don't know why the uh the vikings aren't calling the timeout here why would they call a timeout if they have two left is 40 seconds left the play clock is 40 seconds so what what are they have them kneel the ball on one play that's first down have them kneel the ball in the other play that second down then they kneel the ball in the third play and the game's over why would they call one either one of their two time why would they even waste the time why why would they what were they gonna hope that jerry golf just slips on the kneeling the ball why would they do that that's why with some of these commentators man i just i don't get it we heard it on the monday night football game that we heard it tonight there was more than 40 seconds left what was it 42 seconds i need to go back into the room and see exactly how much times that i need to show i need to show the replay of the game or if one of y'all want to look it up real quick feel free to but there was there was not even if there was more than 40 seconds left it was under a minute so even if the the play clock is 40 seconds so say it was 60 seconds left if you even though it wasn't but say it was 60 seconds left you they do a play is and this is first down it's first down they run a play time out that's first down you run another play time out that second down you run a third play that's it that's it so on that third play you don't even have to get a first down but you can take 40 seconds off the clock because both timeouts are done and then on fourth down boom you don't have to do anything you don't have to do anything you literally do not have to do anything because the play clock is 40 seconds that's it what's up riro i remember you that's it the play club that's it the game is done so when yeah maybe they do just want to do that so the cut when the commentator was saying that i'm like who are these these are former nfl players these are guys that's been doing this for a long time like how how but no i saw a good rushita there ain't nothing ain't nothing but i i was just like man like what what's up but anyway shout out he's a troy eight minutes so bad he yeah i mean he wishes he could be that other former cowboys quarterback who's a great commentator now shout out to tony romo i'm doing pretty good right well how you're doing shout out to tony romo romo does great commentary love him love him but anyway what a game this game was nice this game was nice i ain't worried about that he'll practice tomorrow um but this game this was fun when i remember i was doing a madden stream before this game i was doing and the stream actually went on in two about what's up francisco the uh the stream actually went into some of the first quarter of the game it actually went into some of the first quarter of the game and i was saying while i was streaming before the game started i was like oh i i i bet that you guys are really excited for this thursday night football game huh and because i wasn't really excited for it i was still gonna watch it because um when when you don't have football football season is the best season and when it's over it's sad it's sad it's like a bit of sweet thing because i know with a lot of us we'd be so into football and then when football season is over it's like oh wait what i got a family what i didn't know your what oh wait okay but no man football season is the best that's why i appreciate football season that much more uh because when when it's over oh it's over man it's over it's over and it's so sad we got basketball season born 82 games for each team who's watching that born basketball is so watered down mba is watered down and it's born i know a lot of y'all praying graven what basketball boring what about lebron james it's born same teams finals every single year but now it's actually going to be different because lebron went to the west coast i didn't think he was going to go to the west coast when all the the whole talk about him going to the lakers came out i'm like oh no that ain't happening that ain't happening because the warriors are right there so lebron one of the only one of them two can go to the finals only one of them two can go to the finals so now then he went he went to the west coast and he surprised me he surprised me so now basketball will actually have uh one different team in the playoffs but it'll be the same people it's either going to be steve curry and kevin dirant and clay thompson draymond green uh andrey godala is he still there i don't know i don't care or it's going to be the lakers willa bron and everybody else bonzo ball uh land stevensson i couldn't think of his name but either way basketball same oh yeah the markets because they got boogie now too basketball same stuff every single year 82 games per team watered watered watered watered down extremely watered down you don't you don't even have time to miss it because it's such a long boring drawn out season and it's such it's so watered down your team it feels like your team plays every night i know they don't literally play every night so for the people that's like engraving basketball teams don't play every night you're wrong because it's always them people that try to look for any little wrong thing you say in any video i love them those are my favorites anyway basketball is born uh hockey born unless you're going person uh baseball born um tennis born tennis sounds like somebody flicking on a light switch off and on because it goes to born my point nothing compares to nfl season nothing at all and it's not even close it's not even close one thing whenever i compare football to basketball or nfl to nba one thing i always go to because nobody can fight it you can't fight against it and if you want to use this with your friends too feel free feel free to when does anybody ever say hey we throwing the nba finals party who does that who does that who throws the nba finals party but didn't think about it but who said who who says hey you want to come to the house for my superbowl party everybody people that don't even watch football they'll throw superbowl parties people who don't even watch exactly big nick he said it's it's not one game that's why exactly because it's watered down it's watered down yes a series i know it's watered down so every everybody nobody if they watch football or not they're throwing uh superbowl parties and they're going to superbowl parties but anybody be like hey and hey who's coming over for the uh the nba finals party crickets but anyway football is the best and what my point was that i was saying earlier before i got carried on about how boring nba is is that uh with even a game like this that wasn't supposed to be exciting that i wasn't anticipating like that i was still gonna watch it because it's football it's nfl football and i appreciated i appreciated more and more every single year especially when it's over because when it's over it is over and it's sad they try to draw it out they try to stretch out the offseason because the superbowls in february uh march they uh the draft is in april um then no excuse me the draft is in march it's either march april then free agency starts in april so that goes up until may june and then you've got the mini camps in like june july you start having training camps july august and you have preseason august and then you're back but that time period goes by so slow it goes by so slow so slow and we'll be like man i mean we we play madden a little bit more that's the times when if your family want to take a little vacation or something then you'll be like okay hey i'm down i'm down i'm down to go anytime whatever weekend you want to go because right now if um save my wife and car today want to go somewhere i'll be like okay cool we can go but well i won't say that at first first i check the schedule i'll be like oh let me see let me see who ravens playing that week or let me see if they're playing that week and if they plan then i usually make my plans around that if we're gonna go somewhere because i'm like i gotta catch my team you already know i gotta i gotta catch my guys man you already know that so with that being said um it's football is just so much better man so much better so much better so that's that man so we love it we love nfl uh we appreciate nfl uh and again there's nothing like it there's nothing that even comes close fee for world cup you know a lot of people get hyped over fee for over i mean over the world cup excuse me i don't not my cup of tea um i know it's i know it's special because it's every four years but um yeah i i never really got into it so either way appreciate y'all so you don't watch the end the so you don't watch the mba not really know if it's on i look at it and turn it off i i can't if for me to watch a whole game a whole mba game goodness gracious that takes a lot that takes a lot like a lot takes a lot so anyway appreciate y'all man ufc i think the only time i watch ufc was when somebody from wwe went to ufc because i wanted to see if he could fi ght uh then he won and then they said it was rigged because they said he was taking peds uh and s t e r o i d s so yeah

Please, good evening. I have a statement. I'm gratified that a bipartisan consensus on arms control is emerging from the recommendations of the Scowcroft Commission. Their report combined the one package three of our top priority goals, modernization, deterrence, and arms control. And I'm integrating their arms control recommendations into our start proposals. I will also support their proposal to develop a small single warhead missile for more stable deterrence in the future. Many in the Congress have shared their thinking on arms control with us. Close cooperation can show the Soviets that we Americans stand united, ready to negotiate in good faith until we succeed in reducing the level of nuclear weapons on both sides. Working together and exploring initiatives such as a proposed mutual build-down of strategic nuclear forces, we can keep America strong and achieve arms reductions that strengthen the peace and benefit all mankind. I congratulate both appropriations committees for their bipartisan approval of the MX Peacekeeper Missile recommended by the Scowcroft Commission. I look forward to prompt approval of this vital program with the full House and Senate. It'll be one of the most important arms control votes of the 98th Congress. The Scowcroft Commission demonstrated it could take on a complex issue and achieve bipartisan agreement. The question now is whether the Congress can also reach a consensus with a resolution and unity to strengthen our national security, reduce the risk of war, and ultimately achieve reductions of nuclear weapons. Another subject, the Senate will soon reconsider or consider no, reconsider is the proper word, a budget resolution. Some say the congressional budget process is at stake. I say the stakes for the American people are greater. The real question is, do we keep our hard won economic recovery moving forward? Or do we stop recovery by reversing course? The answer for most Americans is clear. In January, I proposed a common-sense budget to reduce deficits through defense cuts and a domestic spending freeze, but with virtually no new taxes in 1984 or 85. The House and the Senate Budget Committee said no. They have voted to increase domestic spending and to raise the people's taxes by over a quarter of a trillion dollars. That's a $3,550 tax hike for a typical family over the next five years, enough to pay for nearly nine months of grocery bills. I tried again supporting the so-called Domenici Compromise with less defense and more domestic spending than I really wanted and to no avail. It is time to draw the line and stand up for the people. I will not support a budget resolution that raises taxes while we're coming out of a recession. I will veto any tax bill that would do this and I will veto spending bills that would rekindle the fires of inflation and high interest rates. The American people didn't send us to Washington to continue raising their taxes, spending more on wasteful programs or weakening our defense. They sent us here to stop that and that's what we're going to try to do. Now, Helen. Mr. President, in February 1981, you projected a balanced budget for 1984 and now you're according to your arithmetic, we will be $190 billion in debt deficit for 1984. How will this affect your economic recovery program and I'd like to follow up. Helen, I think the fact is in February of 81, we were speaking the tone of all of the economic advisors there are and no one foresaw the falling off the cliff that took place in July. We had been in a recession since 1979 in this country and no one knew or believed that it was going to take that big dip that it took then and which many people referred to as a separate recession. We altered naturally our estimates on that. We know that we're going to have to have a sizable deficit in 83 and in 84 but what we're trying to do in our budget planning and running into some objections is set us on a path of decreasing deficits to where we can look down the road a few years and see ourselves approaching a balanced budget. This was what the 84 budget that I have mentioned here, my remarks and that I submitted to the Congress earlier this year for 84 was designed to do, to set us on that kind of a path. And I don't see of course about 50% of the budget deficits we have to say are made up or are based on the recession. And as we have recovery and begin to come out of this that will have an effect also on the size of the deficits. Since you've drawn a line on tax increases and further defense cuts where would you cut domestic spending? I mean to reduce the deficit further. Well in the budget that I submitted we called it sort of a freeze at the time and what it was based on was the 1983 budget the present budget plus 4% across the board for domestic spending and this was on an estimate that we could bring inflation down to a 4% figure so it was going to be for 84 the 83 budget adjusted for inflation. Well we have inflation down to less than 4% and so if we adopted that budget we would be giving a real increase over and above inflation of the 83 spending and I don't think we've done badly in 83 and that's why I still think that it is a budget that should be considered because that budget would have set us and started us on the line of declining deficits. Jim. Mr. President with the Syrians walking joining the Middle East negotiations how will you and Ambassador Habib manage to encourage them to take part in the withdrawal and really what reason do you have to be optimistic this can take place? Well for one thing the Syrians are on record they were invited by Lebanon to come in and help them in the troubles that were going on in Lebanon and now Lebanon has said they're no longer needed and has invited them out but at the same time the Syrians have repeatedly said that when the other forces leave when the Israelis leave and so forth they too will leave Lebanon. Now I grant you they're saying some different things today but I also know that a number of their Arab allies are urging them to stick with their word and to leave when all forces are prepared to leave and I can't believe that the Syrians want to find themselves alone separated from all of their Arab allies. Mr. President to follow up on Jim's question what specifically is the United States willing to do to encourage Syria to leave? For instance is the United States willing to offer a negotiating role to the Soviets that would help or willing to offer U.S. military and economic aid to the Syrians to encourage them to withdraw their troops from Lebanon? Well I think that we'd make the kind of I think they should be able to see that they would have the same kind of relationship with us that other countries there in the Middle East have. I don't think that the negotiation should include inviting the Soviet Union into the Middle East I don't see what reason they have to be there and possibly there is pressure on the Syrians coming from the Soviets who now have several thousand of their military forces in there in addition to the missiles and so forth. George. Mr. President several recent episodes suggest Miss Nandy, I'm sorry. Several recent episodes suggest that some administration officials are putting self-interest ahead of the public interest. I refer specifically to an assistant defense secretary's promotion of a weapon system after receiving a $50,000 consultancy fee from that manufacturer of that weapon system to an assistant commerce secretary's recommending that government weather satellites be sold at the same time he was negotiating for a job with the company likely to acquire those satellites. And to the U.S. Information Agency's practice of giving high paying jobs and choice assignments to children and friends of top administration officials. How do you feel about all this, sir? Is this acceptable practice in your administration? Well I think since every one of these things that you've mentioned is being corrected or the people themselves involved simply because there might be a perception of wrongdoing have offered the resignations I think it goes back to what has been an attempt in the part of some to portray our administration as always being involved in this sort of thing but I would like to cite that in almost all of the cases back over these two years and several months none of the allegations were ever proven and everything turned out all right but then as time goes on there's a tendency to refer back and it reminds me of a producer in Hollywood once who refused to hire a director in the picture that he refused to hire the director for turned out to be a failure and the next time the director's name came up the producer said no he was associated with one of the worst failures I ever had. I think there's something of that tone that goes on with what we've been doing. Now the people that were hired by USIA I think it is being well managed and I think there's been a vast improvement in that agency under its present direction and the young people that were hired were hired because they were eminently well qualified for the jobs and I think in many cases like most of the people that we've appointed a government they took those supposed high paying jobs that's something of a sacrifice with in relation to what they could get out in the civilian life. Sir wouldn't they have a nontrait that someone coming in off the street would not have in a similar situation? Well there's no almost anyone that you appoint to a position in government someone that you either know or you know through someone because how else do you find the kind of people that you want for the jobs? Nepotism in my line would be if the person in charge was handling or was hiring his own relatives and there's nothing of that kind going on. Yes Jerry. Mr. President your big board advisors have been at odds for some time on policy and tactical matters the pragmatists versus the true believers and this at times has been something of a bitter feud if the infighting is over in the White House staff but how did you end it? And if it's still going on what are you gonna do to bring peace into this house? Well it isn't going on and I think it was much more exaggerated by way of leaks and so forth from others than it really was. I think anytime when you have an administration and you have a number of people and you've got issues in which there are varieties of options and so forth you're going to find times when some will be on one side of one option some on the other and I make the decisions and so sometimes some are losers and some are winners but I don't think there's anything that can't be worked out and hasn't been worked out there among our top staff. No, Sam, I... Yes? Mr. President, do you subscribe to the theory that large budget deficits in the range of $200 billion and such as your 83 budget itself would project will keep interest rates high particularly long-term interest rates and if so do you not feel that this is as great a threat to recovery as more taxes? If interest rates were to go up, of course but I don't see any sign of that and they have come down considerably as I repeatedly said to half of what they were just a short time ago and when we started and I know that perceptions in the marketplace can sometimes influence the people in the marketplace and we have to watch out for things of that kind but all of the economic indicators are such that I see no reason why they should be going up as a matter of fact, I think in the very near future we're going to see a further drop in interest rates. Because you mentioned the word perceptions many people believe that if you reappoint Paul Volcker as chairman of the Federal Reserve Board this will steady the market and this will give confidence to Wall Street. Will you reappoint Paul Volcker? Sam, as I have said before we don't discuss the possible appointees that face us until the time comes and when the time is right why we will get together on that subject and decide what our course is going to be. Andrea. Mr. President, the situation in Poland seems to be getting worse, not better. Can you explain then why you have decided to welcome the Soviets into long-term negotiations on grain and why this should not be viewed as simply trying to attempt to curry favor with the farmers for 1984? No, I don't think it's that and as you know, I had always disagreed with using grain as a single economic weapon back when it was imposed as an embargo and lifted that embargo. All that we have done is agreed to sit down with the Soviet Union to explore the idea of a long-term agreement. And I think that there are a couple of reasons for this. One of them, it will, I think, restore something of what we lost with the embargo in the eyes of the world, restore us as being viewed as a dependable provider. That is one thing. Another thing is that I think the benefit will accrue to us certainly as much as to them. And if you want to look at it another way, this is a case in which the Soviet Union has extended itself so far in building up its military buildup. We're not offering any credit deals or anything of that kind. They're going to have to buy cash on the barrel head and that's hard cash that they will have to come up with. I just want to follow, since it will result in more grain being exported to the Soviets, how do you justify that with our position, our pressure on the European allies to restrict our trade, western trade with the Eastern Wall? No, the only conversations we've had and I think we've resolved them very well. There's peace among us with regard to east-west trade and the only problems we had were subsidized credit and trade that was going on in which the Soviet Union was being allowed to purchase it below market value. And so this and just as this is different than the gas deal, in that instance, our allies were making themselves dependent on the Soviet Union and we're providing cash badly needed by the Soviet Union. So there's a little difference between buying and selling. Yeah. Just as over the weekend we learned that you had pardoned one of the Cuban Americans who was convicted of participating in the Watergate burglary and then we learned you had turned down two other Watergate pardons. I'd like to know why you took those actions. Well, I didn't turn anyone down. I have received no recommendation from the Justice Department for other pardons. I did receive the recommendation for the one gentleman. He had never committed a crime of any kind before. He was not in any way a ringleader or a great activist in the deed performed. He served his sentence and since then has lived up to the letter of the law and been a very fine productive citizen and those are the terms for pardoning someone. So we pardoned him. Bill. Mr. President, not long ago you expressed in no uncertain terms your anger at the nation's bankers or some of them for what you termed misinformation on the business of withholding. Now it appears that withholding will go through the Senate as it went through the House today by a margin that's large enough to override a veto. You threatened to veto it before, will you still? Well, I'm not going to comment in that bill because I understand that there is some talk of something rather of a compromise in it and I'm gonna wait and see what they come up with there on the Hill. Now, wait a minute. Deborah. Six weeks ago you said that there were serious grounds for questioning Soviet compliance with arms control agreements and that you might have more to say about that. Since then, the United States has confirmed that the Soviets have again tested the missile that has been raising US concerns with the talks resuming today with the Soviets on a new arms control agreement. Don't the American people have a right to know if you believe the Soviets have violated past ones? It isn't so much as to whether we believe it's a case of whether you have the evidence to actually pin down an infraction. And you said they tested the weapon again. We even aren't sure that this is the same weapon or that they're not testing two weapons. But with the information that we have from our own trying to verify what is going on, yes, we had reason to believe that very possibly they were in violation of the assault agreement. And we have appealed to them for more facts, more information on the weapon they tested. So far, they have not provided that information to us. So all we can tell you is that we have a very great suspicion. But again, you can't go to court without a case and without the solid evidence and it's just too difficult and we don't have that. Yes, Candy. Mr. President, you recently received a report on education which stated that if an unfriendly foreign power had imposed on America the mediocre educational performance which exists today, we might have viewed it as an act of war. In your 84 budget requests, you asked for about $13.5 billion in federal funds for the Department of Education and over $235 billion for the Department of Defense. Isn't it time in light of the report to reassess your priorities? Not really, because you see education is not the prime responsibility of the federal government and the total budget for education in the United States is far greater than the defense budget. As a matter of fact, the federal government actually provides less than 10% of the cost of education through the Department of Education. And for that 10%, one of the things that's wrong with the school system, and if you want to talk to some local school board members, many of them will confirm this, is that for the 10% or less of funding, the federal government has wanted about 50% of a voice in dictating to the schools and running the schools. Now, we've gone through a period, number of years, about 10 years, in which we went from $760 million federal aid to education to about $149.9 billion dollars, and that's a 2,000% increase, and it was during that period that the testing scores, the college entrance tests, and so forth, began to decline so severely. Now, I appointed a commission to study and bring back a report on what we felt was a decline in education, in our schools. They brought back a masterful report. And in that report, there's very little suggestion for more money. What they're talking about can be corrected without money. It takes some leadership. It takes some return to basics. It takes having students that now have to learn what they're supposed to learn in a class before they're moved on to the next class, just because they've come to the end of the year, and there's an awful lot of that goes on. It also takes required courses in English, in the basics, in mathematics, in science, particularly in high school, and yet we've seen a time in which you can get credits toward graduation for cheerleading in some of our schools. Or how would you like to graduate by getting straight A's in bachelor life? We think there's some common sense that is needed, and so we've proven that throwing money at it isn't the answer, and the federal government can never match the funding of schools at the local and state level where we created the greatest public school system the world has ever seen, and then have let it deteriorate, and I think you can make a case that it began to deteriorate when the federal government started interfering in education. I realize that many of the things in the report could be done without further increases in funds, but it also recommended more school days, longer school hours, better qualified teachers. I think many public school systems would tell you they don't have the money to do that. Where are they gonna get it? Well, I don't know there's so many of those things. There would be some increase in money there. I'm quite sure. But again, how much is being wasted on some things that aren't contributing to their education that could be transferred to that? And I think that right now there are three time magazine just a few days ago had an article in there about three inner city high schools, one in the Bronx, New York, one in Los Angeles, one in Austin, Texas, and just by changes from the principal's office down in leadership, these schools have become what schools are supposed to be to the extent that students are leaving private schools to transfer to these public schools. And I want to implement as completely as possible that plan that was submitted to us by this commission that was investigating education, and it won't cost $11 billion, which a nameless gentleman has suggested he would advocate that we spend. Lou. Mr. President, you've described the Santa Nista regime as being oppressive and inimical to our interest in the Western Hemisphere. Why don't we openly support those 7,000 guerrillas that are in rebellion against it rather than giving aid through covert activity? Well, because we want to keep on obeying the laws of our country, which we are obeying. I can follow up, sir. Do you think that if the Santa Nista government remains in power in Nicaragua, that democracy and freedom can survive in Central America? Well, Lou, let me answer it this way. We have tried to negotiate, we have tried to talk and to relate on a bilateral basis with the Nicaraguan government, the Santa Nista government. The only thing that objection that we have to them is they're not minding their own business. They are attempting to overthrow a duly elected government in a neighboring country. They are supplying direction, they are supplying training, they're supplying arms, and everything else that is needed to guerrillas that are trying to overthrow that government. All we've said to Nicaragua, and from the beginning is, become a legitimate American state, quit trying to subvert your neighbors, and we'll talk all kinds of relationship with you. But here is a country, a government that was not elected, that then threw out part of its own revolutionary forces because they wanted legitimate democracy, and yet at the same time that it's complaining because those same forces, those are not remnants of the Somoza government that they threw out of office. Those are some of their former allies, and all they want from them is for that government to keep the promises it made to the organization of American states, which were to have elections, to restore human rights, to observe all the democratic principles. The Mosquito Indians are also fighting because they were chased out of their villages, their villages burned, their crops were destroyed, or confiscated by this revolutionary government, and the Mosquito Indians are fighting for their lives. But what we've said to them is, and we'll say again, if they'll just start minding their own business, they can get along with all the rest of us. Now let me, I get stuck over on that side here and seeing everyone, Ralph. Mr. President, back to the Middle East. Now that Israel, excuse me, has signed its troop withdrawal agreement with Lebanon, do you intend to lift the embargo against the supply to Israel of F-16 aircraft? This is a matter now that must go to consultation between the State Department, they handle that, and the Congress, and that consultation is about to begin. Yes, Barali. Mr. President, given the uncertainties about whether the withdrawal agreement in Lebanon will succeed, what are the prospects for getting our own U.S. Marines out of Lebanon, and is it likely that the number of American troops may in fact increase in the near future? Well, you have to remember what the multinational forces went in there for. The multinational forces are there to help the new government of Lebanon maintain order until it can organize its military and its police and assume control over its own borders and its own internal security. So it could be that the multinational forces will be there for quite a period. And we have to remember, eight years of Lebanon being totally divided with literally warlords and their own independent militias and so forth, and that's the function and the purpose for them being, for our multinational forces being there. If I could follow up, do you see their number increasing in the near future? I haven't seen any sign of that. This would depend a lot on Lebanon and their needs and whether they could demonstrate needs for this. But, yes. Mr. President, Lewis Harris recently announced a survey he conducted for Atlantic Bridgefield found that almost 90% of those who responded said that government should approve such things, for instance, as new toys for safety before they could be sold. And almost 70% said that government should borrow TV ads that are misleading. And overall, the polls show that people want government to interpose itself in the marketplace, especially in the area of consumer product safety. And in light of your offset assertion that Americans think themselves over-regulated, what do you make of Mr. Harris poll? Well, it's a case also of which government level is the best one to do this and whether this requires a gigantic federal bureaucracy. When I was governor of California, we had, we did that at the state level and very effectively. And there were also private sector things, better business bureaus that do much the same thing. But I have to, as you know, I'm a Johnny One note on this. A lot of things that are suggested with the federal government, I wanna make sure that they aren't the legitimate function of another level of government and that they can't be better done by another level of government. Jerry? There have been some recent reports, Mr. President, raising a possibility that you might abandon black voters in the event that you seek reelection. Of course that's been denied by some officials in the White House. Even so, considering the backlash to your administration policies in such areas as the budget and civil rights, how do you see your chances with black voters in the event you seek to run again? Jerry, I'd have perfect confidence in our chances with black voters in America if we could get the truth to them. I know that, again, that word perception has been carried on and what the perception is. First of all, you're hearing another official from the White House telling you that no, we're not casting any voters aside. And yes, I do think we have a lot to offer. Now, among the perceptions that somehow our budget cuts have affected the black community more than any other, in our social or changes in social programs, all we have done is remove from the roles people that we believe are an income level that is above what is required for them to be getting some benefits at the expense of their fellow taxpayers. We have increased our ability to help those truly at the lower earning end. And the very fact of what we've been able to do with inflation, a family that had $10,000, 1979 and 1980, if we had left the inflation rate where it was then, that $10,000 a year family would only have $7,900 in purchasing power. And that's like cutting their income by $2,100. I think that, and as you mentioned about civil rights, we are enforcing civil rights at a record level with regard to the charges made for criminal violation of civil rights. The same is true of our ability, the money that we have regained in wage disputes for people that have been denied their fair wages. We're setting a record in that. We're out ahead of what has been done in the past in any number of those items. We have conducted some 21,000 inquiries into voting what we think are suspected voting violations. And as you know, we have extended the Voting Rights Act for a longer period than has ever been done in history. What I think is that a pretty good hatchet job has been done on us and a great many people sincerely and honestly believe something that just is not true. And my belief has always been, and long before I ever got here, that wherever in this land, any individual's constitutional rights are being unjustly denied. It is the obligation of the federal government at point of bayonet, if necessary, to restore that individual's constitutional rights. But that statement and some others you made recently have the markings of a candidate who indeed will run for their rights. Or you trying to tell us something or we're misreading you. Terry, you're misreading to this extent. That's a decision that is not gonna be made yet, but I think it would stand to reason that if the answer were no for me, that Republicans would still be under the cloud that I have just described. And I think that I would be very vocal in a campaign and behalf what I intend right now to support congressional candidates, senatorial candidates to the best of my ability and gubernatorial candidates. You doing? I'm doing.
