Obama Speeches

    "That is why the greatest danger of all is to allow new walls to divide us from one another. The walls between old allies on either side of the Atlantic can not stand."  "The walls between the countries with the most and those with the least can not stand."  "The walls between races and tribes, natives and immigrants, Christians and Muslims and Jews can not stand.  These haled walls we must tear down" (Obama in Berlin, July? 2008.)

    "We are demonstrating that free nations can make common cause on behalf of our common security."  "We need more resources and authority." "We need real and immediate consequences." "Some will break the rules, but that is why we need a structure in place that ensures that when any nation does, they will face consequences." "Rules must be binding. Violations must be punished. Words must mean something. The world must stand together .... Now is the time for a strong international response. ... the path to security and respect will never come through threats and illegal weapons. And all nations must come together to build a stronger, global regime."  (Obama in Prague Sunday, April 5, 2009)
