| 0:00.0 | Well, I hope everybody had a great weekend. I'm increasingly convinced that we are currently in a political time now the next |
| 0:14.2 | few months until this election and then depending on what happens the immediate |
| 0:18.0 | period thereafter I believe this is a time that we are going to remember the texture and the feel and the details of in a way |
