In a post on Instagram the bodybuilder-turned-actor-turned-politician commemorated the anniversary of “one of the proudest days of my life” with a series of photographs set to his speech from the 2004 Republican National Convention.
“My fellow Americans, this an amazing moment for me,” the speech begins. “To think that a once-scrawny boy from Austria could grow up to become governor of the state of California, that is an immigrant’s dream. In school when the teacher would talk about America, I would daydream about coming here. I would daydream about living here. As long as I live, I will never forget the day when I raised my right hand and I took the oath of citizenship.
“Everything about America seemed so big to me, so open, so possible,’ he continued. “To my fellow immigrants listening tonight, I want you to know how welcomed you are. We encourage your dreams. We believe in your future.”
