Inaugural Address, my dream for Jan 2009

Presidential Inaugural address Jan 20th, 2009

My Fellow Americans,

We come together to celebrate another ceremony of liberty and a demonstration of our citizens’ empowerment; the transition of the Presidency. Our republic has seen, felt and endured all manner of internal and external challenges. Generations that preceded us have never faltered in the defense of liberty. A new set of challenges faces our generation. Our founders, our fathers, our mothers and ancestors call us to meet this challenge to keep the dream called America alive for our children, as they did for us.

We come to this point in history with unprecedented pressures and unique obstacles; however we also come to the battle with unprecedented abilities and gifts. We face the challenge of Islamic Extremists who have hijacked the tenets of their faith. Who send children to kill other children using insane acts of self destruction? Who ruthlessly kill their own brothers and sisters to vanquish the call for peace and love. This hate must be vanquished and it will require a singular strength of character of Islamic people throughout the Middle East and good people of all faiths throughout the world. In this struggle for peaceful co-existence we must use the power granted us with increased discretion and accuracy. We can ill afford to fire before we take aim at the heart of the true enemy. The true enemies of peace are the evangelicals of hate personified by Osama Bin Laden and all those who subscribe to his philosophy of intolerance. This President and the American people promise to the world that we will remain engaged in this battle, but we also promise to improve our aim. Our efforts to assist the world to eradicate the merchants of hate will be executed with increased accuracy and through greater alliances with like-minded people of other nations.

For the past six years we have attempted, (with goodness in our heart and at the cost of 5,000 U.S. lives and one trillion dollars), to partner with the Iraqi people to allow them to breath the air of liberty. Regardless, of the current state of affairs and any mistakes we have made, our intention has always been a mission of honor. Selflessly motivated our goal remains the same…”to allow the Iraqi’s to determine for themselves what nation and what manner of governance their children will inherit”. The time has come to pass the torch of destiny to the Iraqi’s. The nation with such rich heritage has the talent, assets and call of their own history to seize this challenge and opportunity as their own for their own. However, we owe the Iraqi people the opportunity to pursue their destiny with minimal interference from outside forces (including that of our own). It will be the policy of this President that from today until a time of the Iraqi’s choosing, our forces will redeploy to the perimeter of the nation of Iraq. We will bring control to Iraq’s borders and keep additional external outside forces from entering the nation to contaminate the integrity of the process while this nation’s seeks to build its new day. We will also work with the Iraqi government to assist in the disposal or deportation of outsiders already in the nation by lending air support and other non-ground force assistance.

Speaking of border security… The true stake holders of America, (its legal citizenry) have waited too long and been over promised and under delivered too many times the basic fulfillment of border integrity by this government. Especially during a time of war with terrorists our nation deserves an unmitigated and unencumbered process for TRUE BORDER SECURITY and control over other PORTS of ENTRY. We must know who is entering this nation and it is well within our rights to erect any structure, deploy any resource and engage any would be entrant necessary to insure we have control of this nation's populace. It will be the policy of this President to assert the necessary means to bring true and lasting Border Security to this nation by years end. We also have allowed the tenets of our own fundamental laws to be violated with reckless abandon by employers who not only flagrantly violate employment laws, but also subjugate an entire class of people to impoverishment and artificially depress US workers wages. For employers seeking additional access to legal workers, you will find a friend in this President, for employers seeking additional resources to assist in accurate identification in the hiring process you will find additional resources at your disposal, for those of you who wish to continue with the status quo, you will find an engaged and assertive executive branch who will hold you accountable for your actions.

We also must recognize the blessings of a nation that is so rich in opportunity, so filled with the air of liberty, and so embracing of cultural diversity that millions of other souls wish to join the dream that is America. This wave of would-be American enthusiasts continues to be a necessary ingredient to the soup that is the American Melting Pot of Freedom. Millions seek legal access to this nation and our process has been overwhelmed by those seeking to breathe liberties air. Those seeking legal access to American dream will find an advocate and an assertive ally in streamlining the legal process for those already in line, and for those willing to join the line in the proper order. This President will work with the Congress to erect a process that is both prudently thorough and necessarily efficient to streamline the timeline for those seeking to join America by entering through our front door. We will welcome you with open arms with a process that respects your dignity and is mindful of the realities of our War on Terror. I have a personal message and appeal to our new legal immigrants; we want and need to add your special uniqueness to our nation, we also want you to embrace the culture and tenets of America. When you accelerate your acclimation of American language, culture, and values you will accelerate America’s embracement of your unique gifts of culture, heritage and values. This is the secret sauce of the American Melting Pot, this mix of flavors that augment and enhance each other.

On one matter of housekeeping, my first official act is to grant a Presidential Pardon for Border Patrol Agents Ramos and Campean...today!

As all Americans engage in the challenges of this age, we must be mindful of the enemy within. We must also be mindful of tending to our own house to insure that the intolerance of hate and destruction in the Middle East is not transported to the United States. We as a people must reject racism, religious intolerance and only embrace merit based decision making.
There is another internal enemy of this Democratic Republic. We have a cancer eating away at the soul that is liberty. Our republic is under siege by an avalanche of special interests who have unfairly earned disproportionate access and attention of our legislators, administrators and other government officials. The true stake holders of this Republic, the American people who we are elected to represent, have had their messages drowned out by the moneyed, the incorporated and the internationalists. These singular agenda riddled merchants of manipulation are a cancer on the republic. There is no greater plague endangering our children’s inheritance than the earmarks stamped as liabilities on their future earnings. It will be the policy of this President to veto any bill that is laden with inappropriate spending directed to line items not in the national interest. I will use the pwer of the FTC to oversee and where necessary restore true market forces to our industries. Until the Congress presents bills that are uncontaminated by these artificial intrusions to the federal treasury my pen will stay in my pocket. I promise you, the American Tax Payer, you have elected a President with total respect for your hard-earned income and tax revenues you pay to sustain this nation. I call on the congress to cast out the politics of disproportional representation and clean their own houses. Until that time, I can only promise that the dirty laundry of politics as usual will not pass to the White House nor will an ill laundered bill be signed. It will be this Presidents policy and more importantly its actions to conduct business in the most open, transparent and honest manner in our history. I cannot promise that nothing will go wrong, but I promise swift and immediate action when wrong is found and I promise to fill the air in the white house with the breath of honesty, integrity, and honor. We will promote an agenda of doing what’s right even when no one is looking. Speaking of looking...I challenge all of the media to re-examine, re-invigorate and re-engaged their role as the publics watch dog. I encourage you to approach your awesome responsibilities with agenda free objectivity…you are a key component to this nations of liberty and help shape the degree our Republic is enjoyed by all citizens.

Finally I say to you the “sell out of American interest” is over. Our nation will remain a significant player in international affairs and trade. However, we are going to review the terms and dynamics of commerce, alliances and treaties to insure all of our relationships are based on mutually beneficial commerce. A new day of integrity has dawned and the dream that is America has re-awoken and the benefactor of this awakening is the world. God Bless America.

Opps, I just woke up,..well it was good dream while it lasted

Please send this to your favorite Presidential Candidate, maybe elements of this will be added to their speech
