You know, Cindy said a lot of nice things about me tonight. But, in truth, she's more my inspiration than I am hers.
(APPLAUSE)
Her concern for those less blessed than we are -- victims of land mines, children born in poverty, with birth defects -- shows the measure of her humanity. And I know that she will make a great first lady.
(APPLAUSE)
My friends, when I was growing up, my father was often at sea, and the job of raising my brother, sister and me would fall to my mother alone. Roberta McCain gave us her love of life, her deep interest in the world, her strength, and her belief that we're all meant to use our opportunities to make ourselves useful to our country.
I wouldn't be here tonight but for the strength of her character.
