Obama Ipsum

The most presidential lorem ipsum in history.

How many paragraphs of oratory do you need?

Tonight, we gather to affirm the greatness of our nation - not because of the height of our skyscrapers, or the power of our military, or the size of our economy. And it is on their behalf that I intend to win this election and keep our promise alive as President of the United States. Now is the time to change our bankruptcy laws, so that your pensions are protected ahead of CEO bonuses; and the time to protect Social Security for future generations. And despite the costs involved, America's commitment will not weaken. People in every country should be free to choose and live their faith based upon the persuasion of the mind, heart, and soul. That is why the United States will partner with any Muslim-majority country to support expanded literacy for girls, and to help young women pursue employment through micro-financing that helps people live their dreams.

They are both passed away now. King delivered his prayer for our country. These are my heroes. Kennedy called our "intellectual and moral strength." Yes, government must lead on energy independence, but each of us must do our part to make our homes and businesses more efficient. We meet at a time of tension between the United States and Muslims around the world - tension rooted in historical forces that go beyond any current policy debate. That is why I ordered the removal of our combat brigades by next August.

The day after Pearl Harbor my grandfather signed up for duty; joined Patton's army, marched across Europe. I am married to a black American who carries within her the blood of slaves and slaveowners - an inheritance we pass on to our two precious daughters. Not with so many children to educate, and so many veterans to care for. Among some Muslims, there is a disturbing tendency to measure one's own faith by the rejection of another's. All of us share this world for but a brief moment in time.

Tonight is a particular honor for me because - let's face it - my presence on this stage is pretty unlikely. And they, too, had big dreams for their daughter. We can pounce on some gaffe by a Hillary supporter as evidence that she's playing the race card, or we can speculate on whether white men will all flock to John McCain in the general election regardless of his policies. And that's what we have to restore.

They are both passed away now. And there's another issue we must confront as well. Because we all have the capacity to do justice and show mercy; to treat others with dignity and respect; and to rise above what divides us and come together to meet those challenges we can't meet alone. Let us find that common stake we all have in one another, and let our politics reflect that spirit as well. I know there are those who dismiss such beliefs as happy talk. That is why I strongly reaffirmed America's commitment to seek a world in which no nations hold nuclear weapons.

Thank you. And may God's peace be upon you.
