If the President vetoes me, I have to go back to Congress, and they vote on me again, and by that time it's...By that time, it's very unlikely that you'll become a law! It's not easy to become a law, is it? No! But how I hope and I pray that I will, but today I am still just a bill! He signed you, bill! Now you're a law. Oh yes!"
