body moving, A-1 sound,

00:01:10,734 --> 00:01:12,000

This is good.

36
00:01:12,533 --> 00:01:13,333
Body moving.

37
00:01:13,333 --> 00:01:15,700
Da da da

The Vice President:
We got you.

50
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,700
And -- got you your
own whistle, man.

51
00:01:38,700 --> 00:01:39,500
Seth Meyers: Oh, this
is unbelieveable.

52
00:01:39,500 --> 00:01:40,100
The Vice President: Now,
I was going to give you

53
00:01:40,100 --> 00:01:43,800
mine, but I'm
keeping this one.

54
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:44,266
So, we got you --

55
00:01:44,266 --> 00:01:44,667
Seth Meyers: That's okay.

56
00:01:44,667 --> 00:01:45,166
The Vice President:
We got you your own.

57
00:01:45,166 --> 00:01:45,800
Seth Meyers: Thank
you very much.

58
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:47,000
The Vice President: And
she said, "I want a

59
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:47,567
picture of that."

60
00:01:47,567 --> 00:01:48,533
Amy Poehler: (laughs)

61
00:01:48,533 --> 00:01:49,433
The Vice President: And
so, here, I said --

62
00:01:49,433 --> 00:01:49,867
Amy Poehler:
This is amazing.

63
00:01:49,867 --> 00:01:51,967
"Amy, where have you been?

64
00:01:51,967 --> 00:01:53,000
You don't call
me anymore."

65
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:53,967
The Vice President:
That's right.

66
00:01:53,967 --> 00:01:54,600
That means you
got to call me.

67
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:55,200
(laughter)

68
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:56,500
Narrator: Tuesday marked
the 4th Anniversary of the

69
00:01:56,500 --> 00:01:57,667
First Lady's "Let's Move!"

70
00:01:57,667 --> 00:01:59,700
initiative where she
announced new commitments

71
00:01:59,700 --> 00:02:01,934
by the National
Recreational Park Association

72
00:02:01,934 --> 00:02:04,166
and the Boys &
Girls Club of America

73
00:02:04,166 --> 00:02:06,900
to create healthy
environments for children

74
00:02:06,900 --> 00:02:08,433
in their out-of-school
programs.

75
00:02:08,433 --> 00:02:10,734
The event was held in a
local recreation center

76
00:02:10,734 --> 00:02:12,533
where the star of Parks
and Recreation,

77
00:02:12,533 --> 00:02:15,300
Amy Poehler, made another West
Wing Week appearance.

78
00:02:15,300 --> 00:02:17,100
Amy Poehler: -- and it's
especially exciting for me

79
00:02:17,100 --> 00:02:22,300
to learn that if you play
a character with a certain

80
00:02:22,300 --> 00:02:26,867
career long enough, people
will treat you as if you

81
00:02:26,867 --> 00:02:27,834
actually have that job.

82
00:02:27,834 --> 00:02:28,934
Male Speaker: Back at the
White House, the President

83
00:02:28,934 --> 00:02:30,967
announced new steps to
partner with the private

84
00:02:30,967 --> 00:02:32,567
sector to boost
manufacturing,

85
00:02:32,567 --> 00:02:36,266
creating a Detroit-area
manufacturing hub

86
00:02:36,266 --> 00:02:37,767
to focus on advancing

87
00:02:37,767 --> 00:02:39,867
lightweight metals manufacturing,

88
00:02:39,867 --> 00:02:41,734
and another hub in Chicago focused

89
00:02:41,734 --> 00:02:44,000
on digital manufacturing and design technology.

90
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,467
The President: Basically,
I'm here to announce that

91
00:02:46,467 --> 00:02:47,467
we're building Iron Man.

92
00:02:47,467 --> 00:02:48,467
I'm going to blast
off in a second.

93
00:02:48,467 --> 00:02:49,400
(laughter)

94
00:02:49,667 --> 00:02:52,700
We've been -- this has
been a secret project

95
00:02:52,700 --> 00:02:54,100
we've been working
on for a long time.

96
00:02:54,100 --> 00:02:54,834
(laughter)

97
00:02:54,834 --> 00:02:55,200
Not really.

98
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:56,300
(laughter)

99
00:02:56,300 --> 00:02:57,100
Maybe.

100
00:02:57,100 --> 00:02:58,667
(laughter)

101
00:02:58,667 --> 00:02:59,567
It's classified.

102
00:02:59,567 --> 00:03:01,400
Narrator: On Wednesday,
the President traveled to

103
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,500
Minneapolis' Twin City,
St. Paul, Minnesota, where

104
00:03:04,500 --> 00:03:06,600
he toured a metro-transit
Light Rail maintenance

105
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:07,967
facility at Union Depot.

106
00:03:08,266 --> 00:03:10,066
The President: Man, it's
got the new-car smell.

107
00:03:10,066 --> 00:03:12,467
Strap hanger.

108
00:03:12,467 --> 00:03:14,767
Listen, I used to
ride the subway.

109
00:03:14,767 --> 00:03:17,166
I lived in New York City,
so -- no, I'd be taking it

110
00:03:17,166 --> 00:03:18,800
if I was living here
just want you to know.

111
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:19,500
Male Speaker: Good.

112
00:03:19,500 --> 00:03:20,500
Well --

113
00:03:20,734 --> 00:03:21,233
The President:
Congratulations.

114
00:03:21,567 --> 00:03:22,500
Male Speaker:
And number two.

115
00:03:22,500 --> 00:03:24,100
There's the first honorary
green light ticket for

116
00:03:24,100 --> 00:03:24,867
you, Mr. President.

117
00:03:25,166 --> 00:03:26,867
Narrator: And now,
we'll go to our special

118
00:03:26,867 --> 00:03:28,734
correspondent, Josh
Earnest, who traveled with

119
00:03:28,734 --> 00:03:30,133
the President to St.
Paul for the event.

120
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,500
Josh Earnest: After the
tour, and after the

121
00:03:32,500 --> 00:03:33,934
President got an inside
look at one of the rail

122
00:03:33,934 --> 00:03:35,734
cars, the President
traveled here to the Union

123
00:03:35,734 --> 00:03:38,166
Depot to talk about the
importance of investing in

124
00:03:38,166 --> 00:03:40,000
infrastructure and
how investing in

125
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:41,734
infrastructure can not
just create jobs in the

126
00:03:41,734 --> 00:03:43,967
short term, but also
strengthen our economy

127
00:03:43,967 --> 00:03:44,533
over the long term.

128
00:03:44,934 --> 00:03:45,700
The President:
We can't wait.

129
00:03:45,700 --> 00:03:46,667
We got to move.

130
00:03:46,667 --> 00:03:48,200
We got to get
things going.

131
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:48,934
(applause)

132
00:03:48,934 --> 00:03:50,100
Too many families
are counting on it.

133
00:03:50,100 --> 00:03:53,533
And one of the fastest and
best ways to create good

134
00:03:53,533 --> 00:03:57,567
jobs is by rebuilding
America's infrastructure

135
00:03:57,567 --> 00:04:01,667
-- our roads, our bridges,
our rails, our ports, our

136
00:04:01,667 --> 00:04:05,533
airports, our schools,
our power grids.

137
00:04:05,533 --> 00:04:05,700
(applause)

138
00:04:05,700 --> 00:04:06,800
We've got a lot of
work to do out there.

139
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:08,000
And we got to put
folks to work.

140
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:09,266
Narrator: Meanwhile, back
at the White House,

141
00:04:09,266 --> 00:04:11,667
the Vice President held a
series of conference calls

142
00:04:11,667 --> 00:04:13,900
with Americans from across
the country to discuss

143
00:04:13,900 --> 00:04:14,834
the Affordable Care Act.

144
00:04:14,834 --> 00:04:16,700
And remember, to
get covered,

145
00:04:16,700 --> 00:04:18,300
go to healthcare.gov.

146
00:04:18,300 --> 00:04:20,466
On Thursday, the President
unveiled his new "My

147
00:04:20,466 --> 00:04:22,600
Brother's Keeper"
initiative, taking action

148
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:24,633
with foundations,
businesses, and others to

149
00:04:24,633 --> 00:04:27,233
make sure that every
young man of color who

150
00:04:27,233 --> 00:04:29,600
is willing to work hard and
lift himself up has

151
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:30,900
an opportunity to get ahead

152
00:04:30,900 --> 00:04:32,133
and reach his full potential.

153
00:04:32,567 --> 00:04:33,333
The President: And the
point was, I could see

154
00:04:33,333 --> 00:04:35,533
myself in these young men.

155
00:04:35,533 --> 00:04:39,033
And the only difference
is that I grew

156
00:04:39,033 --> 00:04:41,300
up in an environment that was a
little bit more forgiving.

157
00:04:41,300 --> 00:04:44,166
And I told these young
men my story then.

158
00:04:44,166 --> 00:04:47,800
And I repeat it now
because I firmly believe

159
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:51,700
that every child deserves
the same chances

160
00:04:51,700 --> 00:04:52,700
that I had.

161
00:04:52,700 --> 00:04:54,233
And that's why we're here
today, to do what

162
00:04:54,233 --> 00:04:58,033
we can in this year of action to
give more young Americans

163
00:04:58,033 --> 00:05:02,133
the support they need to
make good choices,

164
00:05:02,133 --> 00:05:06,734
and to be resilient, and to
overcome obstacles

165
00:05:06,734 --> 00:05:07,934
and achieve their dreams.

166
00:05:07,934 --> 00:05:09,600
Narrator: There it is.

167
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:11,200

your life watching

And that's the 3D printer.

178
00:05:26,500 --> 00:05:27,700
The President: Okay.

179
00:05:27,700 --> 00:05:28,734
Brian Mosteller: So,
don't impale yourself.

180
00:05:28,734 --> 00:05:29,734
Other than that,
you're good.

181
00:05:29,734 --> 00:05:30,767
The President: All right.

188
00:05:39,033 --> 00:05:39,633
Yeah.

189
00:05:39,633 --> 00:05:41,433
Unless your, like, falling

00:05:41,433 --> 00:05:42,133

191
00:05:42,133 --> 00:05:43,400
