I Ended Up Being The 43rd President

We've Got To Have All Those Tools. The Patriot Act Tearing Down Those Walls Between Intel And Law Enforcement Are A Necessary Part Of Protecting The Country. But, In The Long Term, The Only Way To Defeat This Terrorist Bunch Is Through The Spread Of Liberty And Freedom. And That's A Big Challenge. I Understand It's A Challenge. It Requires Commitment And Patience And Persistence.

All Americans Must Recognize That The Face Of Terror Is Not The True Faith - Face Of Islam. Islam Is A Faith That Brings Comfort To A Billion People Around The World. It's A Faith That Has Made Brothers And Sisters Of Every Race. It's A Faith Based Upon Love, Not Hate.

It Was Much Easier For Me To Endure The Belittling Than It Was To Watch My Dad Get Belittled.

We Have Learned That Terrorist Attacks Are Not Caused By The Use Of Strength; They Are Invited By The Perception Of Weakness. And The Surest Way To Avoid Attacks On Our Own People Is To Engage The Enemy Where He Lives And Plans. We Are Fighting That Enemy In Iraq And Afghanistan Today So That We Do Not Meet Him Again On Our Own Streets, In Our Own Cities.

Our Founding Fathers Understood That Our Country Would Survive And Flourish If Our Nation Was Committed To Good Character And An Unyielding Dedication To Liberty And Justice For All.
