We can’t afford to stand pat while the world races by. The United States of America did not become the most prosperous nation on Earth by sheer luck or happenstance. We got here because each time a generation of Americans has faced a changing world, we have changed with it. We have not feared our future; we have shaped it.
BARACK OBAMA, speech at Carnegie Mellon University, Jun. 2, 2010
“And under my leadership, we WILL win the global race to total economic collapse.”
…and I will lead that race from behind.
“…faced a changing world, we have changed with it. We have not feared our future; we have shaped it.”
Isn’t that stupidly contradictory? Either we shaped the changes or we let others shape the changes and followed. Lead or follow, which is it Mr. Best scriptwriter evah?
It’ll be tough to win the global race to total economic collapse. Countries such as Greece, Italy, Portugal, Spain, and Turkey all have tremendous head starts on us. However, under the leadership of President Obama a come from behind victory is well within the realm of possibility.
