00:00We are the two largest democracies in the world.
00:04One by population, the other by surface area.
00:07We should be doing better things together.
00:10Now the U.S. is the second largest democracy.
00:12We don't like being second too often.
00:14It's not a Trump thing, right?
00:15But in this case, we'll make an exception and say that's okay.
00:3135 years ago, I was 11, just a year older than Zab.
00:36And we were here on an official trip with my father.
00:40And I came down to see Agra and the Taj Mahal.
00:45And I didn't get to come with my dad because he was stuck working back in New Delhi.
00:49So for me to be able to be here on an official trip
00:52while bringing my kids with me to share this is really special.
01:01I've been coming here since my late 20s.
01:04I've spent over a decade creating relationships.
01:07It's not my first week in India.
01:10My late 20s, early 30s looking at deals.
01:12The first couple of times it was, you know, you speak to someone.
01:15You meet them in New York and they're saying,
01:16I have the greatest piece of land in the market and here's the maps.
01:18And it looks very credible.
01:20And then you get there.
01:21Well, it's not really my land.
01:22What?
01:23Well, it's my cousins, friends, brothers, uncles, maybe someone.
01:27But now that you're here, let's talk business.
01:29Let's talk business.
01:30And you're saying, oh.
01:35I have to say that Mahatma Gandhi is an inspiration
01:42and should be an inspiration to us all.
01:44The idea of extraordinary strength in compassion and peace and nonviolence.
01:58I might give a different answer somewhere else around the world,
02:01but maybe not either.
02:06I think there is something about the spirit of the Indian people
02:08that's unique here to other parts of the emerging world.
02:11I can, you know, you go through a town and you, you know,
02:14and I don't mean to be glib about it,
02:16but you can see the poorest of the poor.
02:19And there's a, there's still a smile on a face.
02:21You say hello.
02:22It's a different spirit that you don't see in other parts of the world
02:26that walk around so solemn.
02:27And I think there's something unique about that that doesn't exist elsewhere.
