Transcription
TRANSCRIPTION: I learned what government can and can't do five years ago. The Chrysler Corporation was going under and some people said let him go but I disagree. So we pulled together labor business and government and we made it work Chrysler was saved and so were three. Hundred and fifty thousand jobs. Fritz Mondale was way out front. Saving jobs at wheeling: Pittsburg steel. He doesn't quit on you know it's great to fight back especially when you win.
