00:00That's the last sound my parents heard when their fathers were taken away in the middle
00:28night and they never saw them again.
00:32That's my family's real life story.
00:35We escaped from Vietnam just days before Saigon fell to the communists.
00:40We were given a new life in the most generous country on earth.
00:53My name is Hung Kao, and America saved my life.
01:04I grabbed on to the American dream.
01:06I graduated from the United States Naval Academy, but I paid back every dime of that American
01:11dream with 25 years of service in Navy Special Operations.
01:27I saw combat in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Somalia.
01:32I retired as Captain of the United States Navy, and now I stand before you as a Republican
01:37nominee for the United States Senate in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
01:48Only in America, ladies and gentlemen, only in America, but we're losing our country.
01:54Under Joe Biden, millions of illegal aliens flood our borders.
01:59They fly Hamas flags on our campuses, and they shout death to America.
02:06As an immigrant to this great country, let me be very clear to everyone who comes here.
02:13Don't ask for the American dream if you're not willing to obey the American laws and
02:18embrace the American culture.
02:32As I did, I love this country so much that I wrote a blank check up to and including
02:58my life.
03:06I'm running against Hillary's running mate, Senator Tim Kaine.
03:14Kaine is a weak man in a dangerous world.
03:18We only have one thing in common.
03:21The American taxpayer signed our paychecks for 30 years, except Kaine is a career politician
03:29with millions of dollars to show for it.
03:31I've been a warrior with scars to prove it, and I'm damn proud of it.
03:46In November, the left will vote for the hatred of one man.
03:51We will vote for love, love of God, love of family, and love for the greatest nation on
04:00Earth.
04:08And Virginia will elect me and President Trump, and together, we will save America.
04:22My name is Hong Kao.
04:23I'm the next senator from the Commonwealth of Virginia, and I'm not done fighting for
04:27us.
04:33May God bless you, may God bless President Trump, and may God bless the United States
04:44of America.
