I Don't Write Letters Anymore.

Over The Years, Many Americans Have Made Sacrifices In Order To Promote Freedom And Human Rights Around The Globe: The Heroic Actions Of Our Veterans, The Lifesaving Work Of Our Scientists And Physicians, And Generosity Of Countless Individuals Who Voluntarily Give Of Their Time, Talents, And Energy To Help Others-all Have Enriched Humankind And Affirmed The Importance Of Our Judeo-christian Heritage In Shaping Our Government And Values.

People Say I'm Indecisive, But I Don't Know About That.

To Those Men And Women In Business, Remember The Ultimate End Of Your Work: To Make A Better Product, To Create Better Lives. I Ask You To Plan For The Longer Term And Avoid That Temptation Of Quick And Easy Paper Profits.

My First Act As President Is A Prayer. I Ask You To Bow Your Heads: Heavenly Father, We Bow Our Heads And Thank You For Your Love. Accept Our Thanks For The Peace That Yields This Day And The Shared Faith That Makes Its Continuance Likely. Make Us Strong To Do Your Work, Willing To Head And Hear Your Will, And Write On Our Hearts These Words: 'use Power To Help People." For We Know That We Are Given Power, Not To Advance Our Own Purposes, Nor To Make A Great Show In The World, Nor A Name. There Is But One Just Use Of Power, And It Is To Serve People. Help Us To Remember It Lord, Amen.

The World Also Remains A Hopeful Place. Calls For Democracy And Human Rights Are Being Reborn Everywhere, And These Calls Are An Expression Of Support For The Values Enshrined In The United Nations Charter. They Encourage Our Hopes For A More Stable, More Peaceful, More Prosperous World.
