The most presidential lorem ipsum in history.
Now is the time to end this addiction, and to understand that drilling is a stop-gap measure, not a long-term solution. But I will also go through the federal budget, line by line, eliminating programs that no longer work and making the ones we do need work better and cost less - because we cannot meet twenty-first century challenges with a twentieth century bureaucracy. I realize that I am not the likeliest candidate for this office. And I want to particularly say this to young people of every faith, in every country - you, more than anyone, have the ability to remake this world.
It's a war I'm proud I opposed from the start - a war that should never have been authorized and never been waged. Like other black churches, Trinity's services are full of raucous laughter and sometimes bawdy humor. Because one of the things that we have to change in our politics is the idea that people cannot disagree without challenging each other's character and patriotism. Now, that must be our work here on Earth.
Let me be clear. I have a plan that would have already begun redeploying our troops with the goal of bringing all our combat brigades home by March 31st of next year. That's the promise we need to keep. Resistance through violence and killing is wrong and does not succeed. And any nation - including Iran - should have the right to access peaceful nuclear power if it complies with its responsibilities under the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
But somehow, somewhere along the way, faith stopped being used to bring us together and started being used to drive us apart. We did not go by choice, we went because of necessity. The United States does not accept the legitimacy of continued Israeli settlements.
That anger is not always productive; indeed, all too often it distracts attention from solving real problems; it keeps us from squarely facing our own complicity in our condition, and prevents the African-American community from forging the alliances it needs to bring about real change. In the middle of the Cold War, the United States played a role in the overthrow of a democratically-elected Iranian government.
Thank you.
