stacie_yates writes:: A source would be nice, but this one doesn't really have a single source. It was on news broadcasts at the time, and the audio clip is used currently in a commercial for a series of videos called "Presidential Bloopers". How's that?; 4 of 6 people found this comment helpful. Did you?
