:06:00
Come in.
:06:07
Well, hello there.
How's my double?
:06:11
Your double isn't too sure.
Give me time to work on that.
:06:14
- I was told you knew all the answers.
- There was a time when I thought so.
:06:20
- Right now, I wish I did.
- Yes, so do I.
:06:24
- Sit down, Mr. Cohan.
- Thanks.
:06:27
You know, I'm a little bit nervous.
:06:30
- I'm sorry I missed the opening of your show.
- Maybe just as well.
:06:35
Don't worry about it.
We understand each other perfectly.
:06:40
I think so.
:06:41
Herald Tribune says that you make a better
president in I'd Rather Be Right than I am.
:06:48
Don't forget,
that's a Republican newspaper.
:06:52
I can remember you and your family
very well. The Four Cohans.
:06:57
Do you really?
That's a long time ago.
:07:00
Yes. It was while I was
attending school near Boston.
:07:05
I was a pretty cocky kid those days.
Pretty cocky kid.
:07:09
A regular Yankee Doodle Dandy.
Always carrying a flag in a parade.
:07:12
- I hope you haven't outgrown the habit.
- Not a chance.
:07:16
That's one thing I always admired
about you Irish-Americans.
:07:22
You carry your love of country like a flag,
right out in the open. A great quality.
:07:28
I inherited that.
I got that from my father.
:07:31
He ran away to the Civil War at 13. Proudest
kid in the whole state of Massachusetts.
:07:37
So you've spent your life telling the
other 47 states what a great country it is.
:07:43
I never thought of it that way before,
but that's about the size of it.
:07:48
And I lost no time either.
:07:50
It started with a very funny incident
about 60 years ago.
:07:54
It was in Providence, Rhode Island,
on the 4th of July.
:07:57
There weren't so many stars then,
in the flag or on the stage...
