01:11 - 59.415 TO HAVE YOU HERE TO SEE WHAT

01:11 - 02.484 WE'VE DONE TO LEARN A LITTLE

01:12 - 04.987 BIT ABOUT US AND TO HELP US

01:12 - 05.621 LEARN MORE ABOUT OURSELVES

01:12 - 07.089 ABOUT AMERICA. SO THANK YOU FOR

01:12 - 10.159 BEING HERE. I KNOW WE'VE

01:12 - 11.226 ALREADY FAINT.

01:12 - 11.827 PEOPLE WHO'VE MADE THIS

01:12 - 12.594 POSSIBLE. BUT I JUST WANT TO

01:12 - 13.862 SAY THANK YOU AGAIN, TOO.

01:12 - 30.479 PAT BURNS, THE CHAIR OF THE

01:12 - 31.113 SO IT IS GREAT TO HAVE YOU

01:12 - 33.782 HERE. AND THIS IS A REALLY

01:12 - 36.919 IMPORTANT THING. I THINK.

01:12 - 37.553 >>A NUMBER OF REASONS FOR

01:12 - 41.857 THINKING ABOUT OUR HISTORY.

01:12 - 45.961 I THINK IT'S IT'S IMPORTANT

01:12 - 46.528 THAT WE DO THIS. WE'RE

01:12 - 47.229 CELEBRATING AND I'M I'M PROUD

01:12 - 47.896 OF PENNSYLVANIA AND DO SOME

01:12 - 51.133 BRAGGING ABOUT PENNSYLVANIA.

01:12 - 54.303 BUT THE REAL REASON WE'RE HERE

01:12 - 54.970 IS TO TO REALLY THINK FONDLY

01:12 - 56.638 AND PROUDLY ABOUT OURSELVES AND

01:12 - 58.807 ABOUT WHERE WE'VE COME FROM.

01:12 - 00.008 AND WE OUGHT TO DO THIS

01:13 - 01.643 PERIODICALLY. WE HAD TO TAKE

01:13 - 04.646 TIME AWAY FROM THE DAILY

01:13 - 06.849 TRANSACTIONS OF POLITICS.

01:13 - 07.549 SORT OF ARGUE WITH EACH OTHER

01:13 - 10.519 AND TRY TO GET THINGS DONE ON A

01:13 - 12.488 DAILY BASIS.

01:13 - 14.056 IMPORTANT THAT ANY COLLECTIVE

01:13 - 15.958 ACTION IN DEMOCRACY IS THE

01:13 - 18.627 QUINTESSENTIAL ELECT COLLECTIVE

01:13 - 20.095 ACTION. WE STAND BACK AND TAKE

01:13 - 20.796 STOCK. AND THAT'S WHAT I THINK

01:13 - 23.165 WE'RE TRYING TO DO WITH THIS

01:13 - 24.233 200 50TH CELEBRATION. WE WANT

01:13 - 26.502 TO REMEMBER AND CELEBRATE HER

01:13 - 27.102 PAST. AND I THINK THAT'S

01:13 - 31.740 SOMETHING THAT WE OUGHT TO DO.

01:13 - 33.609 BECAUSE WE UNDERSTAND OUR PIT

01:13 - 34.243 PAST A LITTLE BIT BETTER.

01:13 - 36.779 WE MIGHT MAKE THE PRESENT AND

01:13 - 37.846 OUR FUTURE BETTER. IT'S

01:13 - 41.517 IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER THE PAST

01:13 - 42.317 BECAUSE WE GET TO THINK ABOUT

01:13 - 43.018 THINGS MORE CLEARLY THAN MAYBE

01:13 - 46.054 WE DO ON A DAY-TO-DAY BASIS.

01:13 - 48.023 AND CELEBRATING OUR SHARED

01:13 - 48.657 HISTORY MIGHT REMIND US A

01:13 - 49.858 LITTLE BIT ABOUT HOW MUCH WE

01:13 - 53.061 ACTUALLY HAVE IN COMMON.

01:13 - 53.495 AND HOW MUCH.

01:13 - 54.730 WELL THAT WE LIKE TO ARGUE.

01:13 - 58.500 WE LIKE TO DISAGREE. BUT AT THE

01:13 - 59.168 END OF THE DAY, WE REALLY DO

01:13 - 02.304 HAVE A LOT IN COMMON. AND IT

01:14 - 03.572 IS THAT SHARED HISTORY.

01:14 - 05.240 BUT AGAIN, IN A CELEBRATION

01:14 - 05.874 WHERE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT

01:14 - 06.575 AMERICAN HISTORY, THERE'S ALSO

01:14 - 10.179 A CHANCE TO DO SOME SOME BREAK.

01:14 - 10.913 NOW, THIS IS PENNSYLVANIA AND I

01:14 - 13.882 KNOW WE HAVE PEOPLE FROM OTHER

01:14 - 15.884 STATES HERE.

01:14 - 16.518 I'M GONNA DO SOME BRAGGING

01:14 - 26.795 ABOUT PENNSYLVANIA GENERATE.

01:14 - 28.030 AS I SAY, WE ARE WERE MODEST

01:14 - 28.697 BEEN SHARE IN PENNSYLVANIA.

01:14 - 29.364 FOR THOSE OF YOU FROM OUT OF

01:14 - 30.799 STATE, YOU MIGHT FIND THAT HARD

01:14 - 33.869 TO BELIEVE, BUT WE ARE A MODEST

01:14 - 38.407 BUNCH.

01:14 - 43.745 FOUNDED BY. WILLIAM PENN.

01:14 - 44.913 WE HAVE BEEN SETTLED BY A LARGE

01:14 - 45.514 GROUP OF ORDINARY PEOPLE

01:14 - 48.150 LOOKING FOR A LITTLE MORE THAN

01:14 - 52.588 RELIGIOUS TOLERANCE.

01:14 - 53.222 FOR ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY.

01:14 - 53.922 AND THAT'S BEEN THAT WAS TRUE

01:14 - 54.456 IN THE BEGINNING OF

01:14 - 56.525 PENNSYLVANIANS. TRUE TO THIS

01:14 - 00.295 DAY.

01:15 - 04.333 AMAZING STATE. WE'RE BIG STATE.

01:15 - 06.635 WHERE THE 5TH LARGEST STATE

01:15 - 08.170 BY POPULATION IN THE UNITED

01:15 - 08.837 STATES. IF YOU NEVER THOUGHT

01:15 - 10.572 THIS IS GOING TO BE A GEOGRAPHY

01:15 - 13.909 LESSON. BUT ONE OF THE THINGS

01:15 - 15.844 WHEN I WAS GOVERNOR.

01:15 - 16.578 I ALSO BRAGGED THAT WAS THAT IF

01:15 - 18.714 WE'RE AN INDEPENDENT COUNTRY

01:15 - 21.783 WOULD BE THE 18TH LARGEST.

01:15 - 28.023 ECONOMY IN THE WORLD.

01:15 - 29.291 AND YOU SEE A LOT OF CRAP FROM

01:15 - 31.960 THE PEOPLE IN SWITZERLAND

01:15 - 32.661 BECAUSE WE ALWAYS JUST JUST A

01:15 - 33.362 LITTLE BIGGER. THAT'S WHAT YOU

01:15 - 35.330 WANT IN TERMS OF OF OUR

01:15 - 36.832 ECONOMY.

01:15 - 37.533 WE WERE DIVERSITY EARLY YEARS.

01:15 - 40.035 AND AND BASICALLY WE STILL ARE.

01:15 - 45.173 WE'RE EXCITING MIX OF CULTURE.

01:15 - 45.807 FOODS OF TRADITIONS AND OF

01:15 - 48.343 COURSE, A POLITICAL POINTS OF

01:15 - 50.312 VIEW.

01:15 - 53.415 WE HAVE EARNED OUR SWING STATE

01:15 - 54.650 STATUS. HONESTLY.

01:15 - 55.284 WE'RE AN INDUSTRIAL STATE.

01:15 - 56.218 WE HAVE A PROUD TRADITION OF

01:15 - 59.521 PRODUCING THINGS LIKE STEEL
