" I was working with the president on something and he wanted me to hand this out to you all. And I have it here. So I want to read it to the American public directly from the president. 'It has been suggested that we should rename as many as 10 of our legendary military bases, such as Fort Bragg in North Carolina, Fort hood in Texas, Fort Benning in Georgia. And the list goes on. These monumental and very powerful basis have become part of a great American heritage and a history of winning victory and freedom. The United States of America trained and deployed our heroes here and won two world Wars. Therefore, my administration will not even consider the renaming of these magnificent and fabled military installations. Our history as the greatest nation in the world will not be tampered with respect our military. So that was directly from the president. We spent some time working on that and I wanted to deliver that to you.'"
