It's been a grand day for me. The people here have had a great and magnificent convention"; " ... and listening to them ever since I've been old enough and this in my opinion is the greatest Democratic Convention ever held. You've demonstrated here for all the world to see that the Democratic Party is the party of the people. You've had a free convention. You've made your rules and you've adopted a platform. You have met the issues head on, the only way to meet them. You've stood by the principles that make the Democratic Party great ... "/ CU SOT Truman speaks at podium of the "wealth of good men of great ability that we have in the Democratic Party. I've never worried about the outcome of this convention, because all those placed in nomination have been unusually fine men and able leaders. I don't know of any time that our party has had better men to choose from, and we have had a lot of good men in the Democratic Party" / SOT Truman continues speaking, quotes Rudyard Kipling story from "The Jungle Book" about convention of monkeys; he sips from glass of water as VO cheers
