:06:01
Alone. Divided. Weak.
:06:05
- To our new closer.
- Hear, hear.

:06:11
You smell something? I do.
:06:15
I smell success. And you've got the odor.
:06:19
All right, Sam.
:06:21
Why do I say that to you, Sam?
:06:24
Well, I certainly am trying.
:06:26
Got nothing to do with trying. It's believing.
:06:30
When you believe in what you're selling,
you succeed.

:06:34
Because then you're not selling.
You see what I'm saying?

:06:37
You're talking from somewhere here.
You've got to believe.

:06:42
It's a gift. I've got it.
Marty's got it. You may have it.

:06:46
I can believe in anything.
Isn't that right, Marty?

:06:51
It's true.
:06:52
You want to know who
the greatest salesman in the world is?

:06:55
That man, right there.
:06:58
He sold the whole country,
200 million people...

:07:03
on himself. Twice.
:07:06
And what was Nixon's sales pitch in '68?
:07:08
In '68, it was...
:07:10
He said he would end the war.
:07:13
He would get us out of Vietnam.
And what did he do?

:07:18
He sent another 100,000 troops...
:07:20
and then he bombed
the living shit out of them.

:07:22
That's what he did.
Now, what did Nixon run on last year?

:07:29
Ending the war in Vietnam. And he won.
By a landslide.

:07:35
That is a salesman. He made a promise.
He didn't deliver.

:07:40
And then he sold us
on the same exact promise.

:07:44
All over again. That's believing in yourself.
:07:57
These are for you. Read them.
