...in the fight to reverse
the effects of global warming.

1:43:03
The other piece of legislation is
the crime bill.

1:43:08
As of today, it no longer exists.
1:43:11
I'm throwing it out.
1:43:13
I'm throwing it out
and writing a law that makes sense.

1:43:17
You can't address crime prevention...
1:43:19
...without getting rid of assault weapons
and handguns.

1:43:22
I consider them a threat
to national security and I will go...

1:43:26
...door-to-door if I have to...
1:43:28
...but I'll convince Americans I'm right
and I'll get the guns.

1:43:33
We've got serious problems
and we need serious people.

1:43:38
If you want to talk about character, Bob...
1:43:40
...you'd better come at me with more
than a burning flag and a membership card.

1:43:44
If you want to talk about character
and American values, fine.

1:43:47
Just tell me where and when
and I'll show up.

1:43:50
This is a time for serious people
and your 15 minutes are up.

1:43:55
My name is Andrew Shepherd
and I am the President.

1:44:07
You don't see that every day.
1:44:09
He's got the whole Press Corps asking
how to spell "erudite."

1:44:12
- Call the printer.
- We gotta rewrite the State of the Union.

1:44:15
Every word. It's a whole new ball game.
1:44:17
You have exactly 35 minutes.
1:44:20
Good. I thought it was gonna be rushed.
1:44:23
I don't want a limousine,
I don't want an escort.

1:44:25
I want a plain ordinary,
non-bulletproof automobile.

1:44:29
Somebody around here must have
a Chevy I can borrow.

1:44:32
Find one and have it outside
the West Wing entrance in five minutes.

1:44:36
Sir, where are you going?
1:44:38
I'm going over to her house. I'm gonna
stand outside her door till she lets me in.

1:44:42
I'm not leaving until I get her back.
1:44:44
And how are you going to do that, sir?
1:44:47
I haven't worked that out yet.
But I'm sure groveling will be involved.

1:44:51
You'll just drive over?
1:44:52
I'm Commander in Chief
of the most powerful army in the world.

1:44:55
You don't think I can drive ten blocks?
1:44:58
Just stay away from Dupont Circle.
I hear it's murder this time of day.
