More From Barack Obama

It's harder to end a war than begin one. indeed, everything that american troops have done in iraq -- all the fighting and all the dying, the bleeding and the building, and the training and the partnering -- all of it has led to this moment of success. now, iraq is not a perfect place. it has many challenges ahead. but we're leaving behind a sovereign, stable and self-reliant iraq, with a representative government that was elected by its people. we're building a new partnership between our nations.

All do not develop in the same manner, or at the same pace. nations, like men, often march to the beat of different drummers, and the precise solutions of the united states can neither be dictated nor transplanted to others. what is important is that all nations must march toward increasing freedom; toward justice for all; toward a society strong and flexible enough to meet the demands of all its own people, and a world of immense and dizzying change.
Strong Men Justice For All
Whereas iraq has consistently breached its cease-fire agreement between iraq and the united states, entered into on march 3, 1991, by failing to dismantle its weapons of mass destruction program, and refusing to permit monitoring and verification by united nations inspections; whereas iraq has developed weapons of mass destruction, including chemical and biological capabilities, and has made positive progress toward developing nuclear weapons capabilities

One of the statistics that always amazes me is the approval of the chinese government, not elected, is over 80 percent. the approval of the u.s. government, fully elected, is 19 percent. well, we elected these people and they didn't elect those people. isn't it supposed to be different? aren't we supposed to like the people that we elected?
Government People Chinese
During the suffragette revolt of 1913 i[urged] that what was needed was not the vote, but a constitutional amendment enactingthat all representative bodies shall consist of women and men in equal numbers, whether elected or nominated or coopted or registered or picked up in the street like a coroner's jury. in the case of elected bodies the only way of effecting this is by the coupled vote. the representative unit must not be a man or a woman but a man and a woman.

One thing i hate about the new deal is that it is killing what, to me, is the american pioneering spirit. i simply do not know what to tell my own boys, leaving school and confronting this new world whose ideal is security and whose practice is dependence upon government instead of upon one's self. all the old character-values seem simply insane from a practical point of view; the self-reliant, the independent, the courageous man is penalized from every direction.
