Six and iron -- on the ground.
There's like -- Fox News genre is enormous Roberts good -- mr.
primary historic I'm fine I'm follows us into the consulate.
The problem Buddhist blockage or security anyways enjoy truckers and elsewhere but a half mile walk from our hotel -- workspace and through three security checks.
It says there -- They get they doing you know the security is always a little tighter when it involves the president as opposed to the candidate obviously there's a lot of security of both but.
It's a little tighter here sort of -- moment.
This is not that depends on how many empty chairs there are lying around but I I would suspect.
No I I think -- the the Democrats look at -- now that went over at the Republican Convention and they've decided that's something we should probably stay away from.
And happens you don't describe.
You know they take a look at every speech here I'm ready yet it was it was surprise extending in fact.
Did nobody that it Clint Eastwood apparently they -- to -- restricting -- -- no and then when he asked her chair.
Somebody from the around the campaign -- we assumed he was going to sit and it but what it is which of course he didn't.
But -- every speech gets -- -- and you know I don't know.
How much you can tell Bill Clinton about his speech.
You know -- I think it's a collaborative effort but there's only so far you can go but you know he's -- -- did you know.
Party player and I'm sure is not -- to say anything that would would give the president in any kind of difficult.
Dog is about the big -- The big dog is about the big -- But you know again he's he's it's.
He is a team player even though he's the big dog again and I I assume that he's going to give a speech that's very flattering to the president relate.
-- on the party points and doesn't stray too far from the message that they're trying to get out there.
-- just a -- that a story about.
-- John Roberts from parts visibly Biden and.
Yeah I'm sure that his speech -- -- heavily dependent.
They may have somebody there who's who's got one -- -- little shotguns and if history is that message feel like they don't give a little bit of -- this yeah I you know I think that you can expected Biden's gonna tow the line.
As well it's -- when Biden is unscripted.
But he tends to run into problems but believe me he's -- to be heavily scripted on Thursday night.
We're also don't.
Thirteen and delay our paradigm is similar program -- alt.
On the pros and aside from trying to save his own job and Bush's message here.
Do you know what's interesting -- -- if you look at an -- that the Republican Party put out yesterday his message is incredibly similar to what it was.
In 2000 today -- it the end of this sad to even have a back and forth is like an echo at.
Where two thousand and -- is if you work hard goes to Tony twelve if you work even harder are promised you change will come he's he's really kind of driving home.
A lot of the same themes that he was in 2008 -- signature piece of legislation health care.
Got passed already you know depending on who takes the Oval Office -- may get on done but there don't appear to be.
Any major pieces of legislation.
There are on the table for the next four years so I think I think really what the president is going to be driving -- message of we have to fix the economy.
He's had for years to try to do it it hasn't happened yet.
And at what point do you accept responsibility for it.
And stop blaming the previous administration is at four years as -- five that is six or do you wait -- here eight here and say.
We could have done a lot better to work for the guy before authorities say -- finally it's our responsibility this economy -- and you know if -- didn't get better we take the blame for but remember the president's that if I can't turn this economy around.
In three years that I'm gonna be a one term president the economy -- -- turnarounds.
There is moral.
Enthusiastic supporters are.
Are not attend a new dimension and are not to.
-- -- it is ours trawlers and so on and the president the vice president gonna speak at a stadium -- is that -- The Bank of America Stadium it's dissimilar to what they did a Mile High Stadium in Denver last year want to open it up to a bigger crowd -- seats 80000 people.
I don't know how many of those 80000 seats will be filled -- probably will be north has about 40000.
You can only get about 171000.
Into the Time Warner -- -- so they wanna put it in the bigger venue the problem that there are having here.
Is we're getting torrential downpours.
Every day here in Charlotte and there is a lot of rain in the forecast for Thursday.
So we could be that at the last minute to plans may change they're saying it's going to be rain or shine but not only were getting rain but we're -- some very powerful thunderstorms to.
And you can't have upwards of 40000 people at a stadium and the thunderstorms.
I do more diplomats attended Tuesday that -- incumbent upon there could be could be higher than Korean descent into get a minimum of four man thank you John Roberts sportsman's.
