The most presidential lorem ipsum in history.
But she didn't. Now, I don't believe that Senator McCain doesn't care what's going on in the lives of Americans. But I am convinced that in order to move forward, we must say openly the things we hold in our hearts, and that too often are said only behind closed doors.
Let us find that common stake we all have in one another, and let our politics reflect that spirit as well. And as someone who watched my mother argue with insurance companies while she lay in bed dying of cancer, I will make certain those companies stop discriminating against those who are sick and need care the most. These things we share.
While studying here, my father met my mother. We are one people, all of us pledging allegiance to the stars and stripes, all of us defending the United States of America. The hope of immigrants setting out for distant shores. I have come here to seek a new beginning between the United States and Muslims around the world; one based upon mutual interest and mutual respect; and one based upon the truth that America and Islam are not exclusive, and need not be in competition. That is what it means to share this world in the 21st century.
But there's a story I want to share that takes place before Moses passed the mantle of leadership on to Joshua. But the record's clear: John McCain has voted with George Bush ninety percent of the time. Islamic culture has given us majestic arches and soaring spires; timeless poetry and cherished music; elegant calligraphy and places of peaceful contemplation.
That's the change we need right now. They could've been told to succumb to the fear and frustration of so many dreams deferred. And we will welcome all elected, peaceful governments - provided they govern with respect for all their people. We will open centers of scientific excellence in Africa, the Middle East and Southeast Asia, and appoint new Science Envoys to collaborate on programs that develop new sources of energy, create green jobs, digitize records, clean water, and grow new crops.
Thank you, and God bless America.
