The Bush-McCain foreign policy has squandered the legacy that generations of Americans - Democrats and Republicans - have built, and we are here to restore that legacy. We will, however, relentlessly confront violent extremists who pose a grave threat to our security. But it was not violence that won full and equal rights. The same is true for the astonishing progress within Muslim-majority countries from Kuala Lumpur to Dubai.

For some, nagging questions remain. Of course, recognizing our common humanity is only the beginning of our task. And despite the costs involved, America's commitment will not weaken. That is why we welcome efforts like Saudi Arabian King Abdullah's Interfaith dialogue and Turkey's leadership in the Alliance of Civilizations. It is easier to start wars than to end them.

She had this enormous capacity for wonder, and lived by the Golden Rule. I will cut taxes - cut taxes - for 95% of all working families. These are not opinions to be debated; these are facts to be dealt with.

Thank you, and God bless America.
