Barack Obama actually said...

"One of the things that I don't get a chance to do as often as I'd like is just to have a conversation with somebody who I enjoy and I'm interested in."

"I call upon public officials, educators, librarians, and all Americans to observe this month with appropriate ceremonies, activities, and programs."

"The world drug problem is complex and dynamic."

"The United States remains a leader in galvanizing international efforts to cooperate in addressing the full range of negative consequences tied to the drug trade and its links to criminal enterprise."
