  It's oh, it is it is very It is very important that that for
• 0:11
  the sake of the country and for the state of our politics, that civility
• 0:21
  and respect for one another should not be forgotten. And in Congress in particular,
• 0:30
  and politicians and people working for politicians, I should remember that the thing
• 0:40
  that sets America apart, it's a civility and respect for the rule of law,
• 0:51
  respect for the Constitution, and respect for fellow politicians were doing their job,
• 1:02
  respect for our law enforcement, respect for the police officers, the firefighters,
• 1:10
  and respect for civil civil servants doing their job to promote the state and
• 1:19
  and to make us to be part of the greatest country in the world.
• 1:25
  And we must remember that when people come to Congress and for yearing you know,
• 1:34
  we we we ask questions with dignity and respect. We the Americans are
• 1:42
  watching our law, our law officers or our duly elected officers to be steward
• 2:00
  steward of the country, and should for them to have some decorum and respect
• 2:07
  for themselves and an additious civility. You can eat. Civility is the cornerstone
• 2:15
  of American politics. We might disagree to agree, or my disagree to disagree,
• 2:24
  but once the cameras I turned on you. I mean, if you're
• 2:30
  not civil or civilized or respectful, you should pretend to be civil, civilized,
• 2:38
  and respectful. And the way you carry yourself in public, especially when
• 2:44
  the cameras are looking on you, because the will is watching. And and
• 2:53
  when we should respect people. Officers are politicians who have served, who have
• 3:02
  given time to make our country great. And when we talk to them,
• 3:10
  we should oh their service. We should respect their age and experience and wisdom,
• 3:20
  and we should respect them for representing us and for taking time away from
• 3:30
  their families all their private lives lives to be there for the country. To
• 3:38
  respect their contribution, respect their service, their theory and sacrifice. And mistakes
• 3:46
  are made, and people may do commit crimes or do wrong for things things
• 3:57
  one in office time, we should keep conspiracies aside, and we govern by
• 4:04
  facts, by reason, by research, by science, by proof, by
• 4:09
  decorum and dignity and integraty. Now we owe to ourselves in order to give
• 4:18
  to others, you know, by denigrating somebody on camera in your official capacity
• 4:29
  as a government employee or as a person in Congress, or as a leader.
• 4:35
  On the dying of the American people, you expect it to respect that
• 4:42
  office by respecting artists and the people that elected you to power onto that Officeho
• 4:53
  not speak to denigree. She speak to elevate and just respect. And we
• 5:03
  should be well informed and ask questions, to ask questions that mean something.
• 5:09
  We should not demean our own selves. But by not knowing the subject that
• 5:15
  we're talking about, and by just saying what we want to see in front
• 5:20
  of the camera, and by trying to be as provocative, as insulting,
• 5:28
  as disrespectful, or as demeaning as we can get to somebody with official capacity.
• 5:35
  The person doesn't have an official capacity, especially in public for the for
• 5:43
  the sake of the state, and in respect of your office. You speak
• 5:49
  with some with some linguistic you know, brother, though, of civilized linguistic
• 6:00
  respect in my words, right, you know, you don't go so low
• 6:09
  in words in order to be elevated. And once we're denigrating somebody, you're
• 6:15
  denegating yourself. But when you're doing that your official capacity as a civil servant
• 6:26
  or as an employee of the state, that is worse. We should be
• 6:33
  mindful that we didn't invent America, that we're not the founding fathers or founding
• 6:39
  mothers. We should be mindful that we didn't find the civil war. We
• 6:45
  should be mindful that wouldn't write the constitutions. We should be mindful that wouldn't
• 6:51
  create the architecture or the technocratic structure, or the system and the institutions that
• 7:00
  we all benefit from to day, which always be mindful that and remember remind
• 7:05
  ourselves that is just our time to do better, to take American forward and
• 7:14
  to make a difference based on this time capsule given to us. In a
• 7:21
  hundred years to day, all of us, most of us are not be
• 7:26
  here, and time cha tell what we did here. And when you speaking
• 7:34
  on our behalf and our behalf of the country or Congress, you should not
• 7:45
  make the future look back at us with dismay and disbelief or disrespect or indignity
• 7:58
  for what we did, as some people did on our names. Even if
• 8:05
  you don't like somebody, just the fact that the person comes to Congress and
• 8:11
  sit in front of you. Just the fact that I got all the cameras
• 8:16
  in the world washing you. Just the fact that all of us have some
• 8:22
  basic decency and some morrow rectitude. That's on the fact that we have responsibility
• 8:33
  expectations, commitment, obligation, an investment or interest in what we do.
• 8:48
  We should speak to people in public as if they have the same rights and
• 8:56
  dignities that we have, just because they have the opportunity to speak. Some
• 9:03
  speak to somebody does not give you the room or the rights of freedom to
• 9:09
  insult them, to demand, to demand them, to dinegree give you for
• 9:18
  the titans. It's out of respect they earn it. Don't take away somebody's
• 9:22
  title because you want to disrespect the person they insult. Somebody's age, or
• 9:28
  somebody's white or somebody's intellect, or the way somebody look or the way they
• 9:33
  speak, that doesn't make it look good. Just basic respect. In public
• 9:46
  speaking and in public performance, you have the expectation that the public is watching,
• 9:58
  and therefore you speak on somebody's behalf. You're speaking on behalf of the
• 10:03
  country. The Congress your job, and you should respect that office. If
• 10:13
  you don't have respect for the office in which you are, then don't seek
• 10:20
  office and don't work in that office if you're a disrespectful person. But when
• 10:28
  giving an office, you should respect that office because you're not the first person
• 10:39
  to hold that position, or you will not be the last person to hold
• 10:43
  that position. But what you do to that position affects the dignity, the
• 10:50
  reverence, the respect, the integrity, the decker, the civility of that
• 11:01
  office. We shall learn to respect our enemies. If they are civilized.
• 11:13
  If we plet not civilized, you try to civilize them. If put out
• 11:16
  dicorum and respect, you try to treat them with dicorum. I respect.
• 11:22
  It's then agreeing to an institution. For a member of that institution to abuse
• 11:33
  that office by speaking to people disrespectfully bleys civility. We called a long way.
• 11:50
  Please, I should respect the office. The office means something only if
• 11:58
  those with the position and power or responsibility in that office means something. An
• 12:11
  office is thus a construct. It's an illusion. It's a subjectivity that we
• 12:24
  make real. The importance of an office depends on the respect and importance I
• 12:31
  give to that office. The office is not a physical thing. The building
• 12:39
  is without respect giving to you as a congress person, as a president,
• 12:46
  as an officer, or as a civil servant. On our employee, were
• 12:54
  the badge of the office, or carry the flag or it passed into that
• 13:03
  office. Treat that office with utmost respect by treating everybody that comes across you
• 13:16
  or comes to you in the name of that office with respect. Treat them
• 13:20
  with respect, to them, basic decency, to them, with civility.
• 13:30
  It's not too much to ask. If you cannot treat people with civility,
• 13:35
  you can have basic respect for yourself. If you cannot treat allow some decorum
• 13:43
  and integrity, with some expectations and responsibility. Please don't be in that office.
• 13:52
  You can stay home or leave somewhere in the jungle if you want.
• 14:00
  When not in the state of nature, when the civilized society with constitution and
• 14:09
  the fundamentals of law, with the moral codes of civilized beings, with civilized
• 14:18
  systems and civilized institutions, those systems may not be perfect. The human being
• 14:26
  is not a moral being, but the human beings not morality. In the
• 14:31
  state of nature and the state of survivor, humans are not taught respect and
• 14:39
  decoral and civility. They are brutal, they are cruel and their savages.
• 14:46
  But we are not. We are the human being nature and nurture. We
• 14:56
  have been nurtured with civility, with a education, with the intellect of understanding
• 15:03
  and knowledge to speak with facts, to take terms and speak with respect,
• 15:15
  and to listen and to be respectful if we even if we disagree, and
• 15:24
  even if we don't like the person who are listening to and had nothing to
• 15:30
  do with us, what respect the office in which we are working for.
• 15:39
  You're a member of Congress, but you are not Congress. But the President
• 15:45
  of the United States, but you are not the United States. You're a
• 15:50
  publice or peace officer, but you are not that office. You're teacher in
• 15:58
  the school. M hm, you're not at school. You're bar tender.
• 16:04
  You're not the bar. You're a driver, You're not the car. You're
• 16:15
  a member of the court. You are not the court. You are a
• 16:22
  reporter, but you are not the office or the company or that entity that
• 16:32
  you report from. You work for that entity, a company or department or
• 16:38
  system or establishment or institution or office others. Expected from you is to treat
• 16:48
  that office with respect, with dignity, with the car, with civility,
• 16:59
  for the sake of others, for the respect of that office. Because you
• 17:04
  will not be the last person to have that position. It is given to
• 17:11
  you. Now, even if we pass on to somebody, don't run into
• 17:15
  the ground, don't deman it don't disgrace it, don't disrespect it, don't
• 17:23
  dehumanize it. Please so American and Americans we suspeak to one another with some
• 17:37
  dignity and respect. Our politics is becoming so divisive, so disrespectful. We
• 17:45
  are not at war with anybody. We can't disagree to agree, but for
• 17:56
  that which was handed over to us. It's a system that has checks and
• 18:03
  balances. It's a system of discourse or debate and respect and dignity and integrity.
• 18:15
  I always remember that I feel offended when I see people who have served
• 18:22
  this country in a governor or a doctor or a professional, and people talk
• 18:30
  to them and a disrespectful way. Because somebody is retired doesn't give you the
• 18:41
  opportunity to to disrespect them. Can even disrespect people that have no power.
• 18:51
  Disrespect is not a thing. It's not a thing for the civilized. Human
• 18:53
  beains in Civility is not for the civilized. Don't you think we need to
• 19:03
  carry ourselves much better in order to reflect our jobs, our professions, and
• 19:11
  our offices. Don't get me wrong, sometimes people can push your buttons,
• 19:19
  but at least in public, is you respectful? Jeff? Some self control?
• 19:32
  Think of the office I represent It's not about you, It's about that
• 19:37
  office. It's just lucky enough to be appointed or elected, or chosen or
• 19:45
  assigned or employed to the office. Always remember the office comes first, because
• 19:57
  without you, the office will still be there. And somebody we feel your
• 20:03
  space. We humans come and go, but institutions and systems stir. And
• 20:14
  those institutions and systems or entities we remember humans for their smart work, with
• 20:22
  their positive activity, and for their positive contribution. Are you born to be
• 20:30
  remembered or forgotten? Remember for good? Remember for good. Show some respect,
• 20:40
  Please have some civility, respect yourself in public, and respect public officials.
