She used to perform for General Motors
when I was a child.

:35:05
I remember her carrying around
a giant spark plug...

:35:08
and singing You'll Never Walk Alone.
:35:11
Now she was back in Flint,
offering advice to the unemployed.

:35:14
Opportunities are still in Flint, Michigan.
They're still in America.

:35:17
Hang in there. Take a day at a time.
:35:20
Go forward and be positive about life.
:35:22
Don't feel regretful or guilty
about the past, or worry about the future.

:35:26
You have today. Today's a new day.
:35:28
It's an opportunity for you
to look about you...

:35:30
and look at the positive within yourself
and within your community.

:35:46
I read something interesting.
Margaret Thatcher says:

:35:49
''Cheer up, America.
You live in a great country.

:35:51
''You're a free country.
You have a great President.

:35:54
''Not everything's perfect, but cheer up,
because you live in a free America.''

:35:58
So, we live in a free society.
:36:00
Today is a new day, an opportunity
to do something with yourself.

:36:05
If nothing else,
thank God for the sunshine...

:36:09
and for the fact
that you're not starving to death.

:36:11
Go out and do something with your hands.
I don't know.

:36:29
Flint is bedrock America.
:36:32
People here don't quit or give up.
:36:34
They know there've been many good times
in the past, and there's more...

:36:39
of good, productive time ahead.
:36:46
It was like I was reliving my childhood.
:36:49
First Anita,
and now "Mr. Chevrolet" himself.

:36:51
Pat Boone had arrived in Flint
just when we needed him.

:36:55
I look the same.
I liked you the moment I saw you.

:36:59
More people identified me
with Chevrolet...
