1
00:00:00,633 --> 00:00:02,001
Female Speaker:
It's a prototype.
2
00:00:02,001 --> 00:00:04,771
The President:
It's a prototype.
3
00:00:04,771 --> 00:00:06,272
It's a prototype!
4
00:00:06,272 --> 00:00:07,607
It will get refined later.
5
00:00:07,607 --> 00:00:11,311
(music)
6
00:00:12,579 --> 00:00:14,581
Welcome to the White
House Science Fair,
7
00:00:14,581 --> 00:00:19,386
one of my favorite events.
8
00:00:19,386 --> 00:00:22,889
If we are recognizing
athletic achievement,
9
00:00:22,889 --> 00:00:25,525
we should also be
recognizing academic
10
00:00:25,525 --> 00:00:27,427
achievement, and
science achievement.
11
00:00:27,427 --> 00:00:29,362
If we invite the team that
wins the Super Bowl to the
12
00:00:29,362 --> 00:00:32,064
White House, then we need
to invite some Science Fair
13
00:00:32,064 --> 00:00:33,967
winners to the
White House as well.
14
00:00:33,967 --> 00:00:36,970
Sometimes in the Oval
Office I look at one these.
15
00:00:36,970 --> 00:00:39,138
It's hard to describe just
how impressive these young
16
00:00:39,139 --> 00:00:40,106
people are.
17
00:00:40,106 --> 00:00:43,443
We can think of Einstein,
Edison, Franklin, Tesla,
18
00:00:43,443 --> 00:00:45,745
the founders of Google,
and Apple, and Microsoft.
19
00:00:45,745 --> 00:00:48,281
But now, we've got some
other people to think about.
20
00:00:48,281 --> 00:00:49,214
Female Speaker: I
designed the game.
21
00:00:49,215 --> 00:00:50,650
The President: You
designed the game.
22
00:00:50,650 --> 00:00:52,919
Sheesh!
23
00:00:52,919 --> 00:00:53,919
That's really cool, though.
24
00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:55,655
Female Speaker: Thanks.
25
00:00:55,655 --> 00:00:57,924
The President: How long did
it take for you to design it?
26
00:00:57,924 --> 00:01:00,493
Female Speaker:
A couple months.
27
00:01:00,493 --> 00:01:03,196
The President: Do you want
to be a game designer?
28
00:01:03,196 --> 00:01:04,831
Female Speaker: Maybe.
29
00:01:04,831 --> 00:01:06,032
The President: Yeah, you're
only in fifth grade,
30
00:01:06,032 --> 00:01:07,300
you don't have to
make up your mind now.
31
00:01:07,300 --> 00:01:09,869
(laughter)
32
00:01:09,869 --> 00:01:13,339
You've got time to decide.
33
00:01:13,339 --> 00:01:15,608
We belong on the cutting
edge of innovation.
34
00:01:15,608 --> 00:01:18,478
That's an idea as old
as America itself.
35
00:01:18,478 --> 00:01:20,512
We're a nation of
tinkerers, and dreamers,
36
00:01:20,513 --> 00:01:22,916
and believers in
a better tomorrow.
37
00:01:22,916 --> 00:01:25,884
