Obama Ipsum

The most presidential lorem ipsum in history.

How many paragraphs of oratory do you need?

Our conscience can't rest so long as 37 million Americans are poor and forgotten by their leaders in Washington and by the media elites. But I stand before you tonight because all across America something is stirring. These things we share. The Holy Koran tells us, "O mankind! We have created you male and a female; and we have made you into nations and tribes so that you may know one another."

And as I listened to him explain why he'd enlisted, the absolute faith he had in our country and its leaders, his devotion to duty and service, I thought this young man was all that any of us might hope for in a child. And it puts the lie to the notion that the separation of church and state in America means faith should have no role in public life. It is not enough to give health care to the sick, or jobs to the jobless, or education to our children. If you don't, you'll be able to get the same kind of coverage that members of Congress give themselves. That is what it means to share this world in the 21st century.

They claim that our insistence on something larger, something firmer and more honest in our public life is just a Trojan Horse for higher taxes and the abandonment of traditional values. And it is my first duty as President to protect the American people. The richness of religious diversity must be upheld - whether it is for Maronites in Lebanon or the Copts in Egypt.

We need to heed the biblical call to care for "the least of these" and lift the poor out of despair. And we should close Guantanamo Bay and stop tolerating the torture of our enemies. But we also know our conscience cannot rest so long as the war goes on in Iraq. You don't defeat a terrorist network that operates in eighty countries by occupying Iraq. That is why I ordered the removal of our combat brigades by next August.

The fundamentals we use to measure economic strength are whether we are living up to that fundamental promise that has made this country great - a promise that is the only reason I am standing here tonight. And it is on their behalf that I intend to win this election and keep our promise alive as President of the United States. Instead, they overlap, and share common principles - principles of justice and progress; tolerance and the dignity of all human beings. When one nation pursues a nuclear weapon, the risk of nuclear attack rises for all nations.

Thank you, God Bless you, and God Bless the United States of America.
