The most presidential lorem ipsum in history.
So one Sunday, I put on one of the few clean jackets I had, and went over to Trinity United Church of Christ on 95th Street on the South Side of Chicago. I didn't fall out in church, as folks sometimes do. I have already condemned, in unequivocal terms, the statements of Reverend Wright that have caused such controversy. We have the most powerful military on Earth, but that's not what makes us strong. We are shaped by every culture, drawn from every end of the Earth, and dedicated to a simple concept: E pluribus unum: "Out of many, one."
A common dream, born of two continents. Tonight, more Americans are out of work and more are working harder for less. For eighteen long months, you have stood up, one by one, and said enough to the politics of the past. But what the people heard instead - people of every creed and color, from every walk of life - is that in America, our destiny is inextricably linked. Meanwhile, the struggle for women's equality continues in many aspects of American life, and in countries around the world. And we will also expand partnerships with Muslim communities to promote child and maternal health.
It's a story that hasn't made me the most conventional candidate. And today I am announcing a new global effort with the Organization of the Islamic Conference to eradicate polio.
Senator McCain likes to talk about judgment, but really, what does it say about your judgment when you think George Bush has been right more than ninety percent of the time? I don't know about you, but I'm not ready to take a ten percent chance on change. Let us keep that promise - that American promise - and in the words of Scripture hold firmly, without wavering, to the hope that we confess.
They stood on the Edmund Pettus Bridge, as the blows of billy clubs rained down. It's a story that hasn't made me the most conventional candidate. And Ashley asks him why he's there. We measure progress by how many people can find a job that pays the mortgage; whether you can put a little extra money away at the end of each month so you can someday watch your child receive her college diploma. So let me spell out exactly what that change would mean if I am President. You don't protect Israel and deter Iran just by talking tough in Washington.
Thank you, and God bless America.
