Why Obama is Great

Highlights from an honest, straightforward speech:

“We will restore science to its rightful place.”
“What the cynics fail to understand is that the ground has shifted beneath them — that the stale political arguments that have consumed us for so long no longer apply.”
“Our security emanates from the justness of our cause, the force of our example, the tempering qualities of humility and restraint.”
“Those who cling to power through corruption and deceit and the silencing of dissent know that you are on the wrong side of history.”
“To those leaders around the globe who seek to sow conflict, or blame their society’s ills on the West — know that your people will judge you on what you can build, not what you destroy.”
“We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus — and non-believers.”
