Thank you very much, Mr President.

I am truly humbled by the extraordinary honor of this nomination.

And I am especially grateful for the care that you have taken in discharging your constitutional duty in service of our democracy with all that is going on in the world today.

I also offer my sincerest thanks to you as well Madam Vice President for your invaluable role in this nomination process.

I must begin these very brief remarks by thanking God for delivering me to this point in my professional journey.

My life has been blessed beyond measure.

And I do know that one can only come this far by faith.

Among my many blessings and indeed the very first is the fact that I was born in this great country.

The United States of America is the greatest beacon of hope and democracy the world has ever known.

I was also blessed from my early days to have had a supportive and loving family.
