-Darling...

President Taft to tell him

why you're running
against him?

No, but he will know

Hm, yes.

As you must know,

Yes. Yes, well...

send her my best.

250
00:23:53,809 --> 00:23:56,176
At any rate,
I am calling because I wanted

251
00:23:56,243 --> 00:23:58,276
to speak frankly about the...

252
00:23:58,343 --> 00:24:02,643
the reasoning behind
my throwing my hat
into the ring.

253
00:24:02,709 --> 00:24:05,143
So, you feel you owe me
that much?

254
00:24:05,209 --> 00:24:07,409
This is not personal, Will.

255
00:24:07,476 --> 00:24:10,776
But we were such good friends
for so long.

256
00:24:11,043 --> 00:24:13,076
We went through
so much together.

257
00:24:13,143 --> 00:24:14,643
I know, and that's...

258
00:24:14,709 --> 00:24:18,043
Really, I have done
far more as President
than you acknowledge.

Not in your way.
I don't have what you have.

I just can't figure it out,
Theodore, I just can't.

00:24:30,276 --> 00:24:34,176
Well, I've made my opinion
on a number of matters
quite clear to you.

264
00:24:34,243 --> 00:24:38,609
Yes, but the party and
the country and the people
will feel it.
