We are really the oldest allies.

The painful consequences of those policies haven't been forgotten.

I am committed to maintain the American contribution to the defense of Europe.

Success will not come easy, but it will come.

We can't rest until every American who wants a job can find a job.

America can be proud of its record in international trade.
