A King's Speech

“Mr. Vice President, Mr. Speaker, members of Congress, representatives of the American people across all states, territories, cities and communities. I would like, if I may, to take this opportunity to express my particular gratitude to you all for the great honor of addressing this joint meeting of Congress, and on behalf of the Queen and myself, to thank the American people for welcoming us to the United States to mark this Semiquincentennial year of the Declaration of Independence.”
