Barack Obama actually said...

"democracies must move forward. Freedom of religion and expression lead to a strong and vibrant civil society."

"Democracies cannot be static--they must move forward."

"True democracy, real prosperity, lasting security--these are neither simply given, nor imposed from the outside. They must be earned and built from within."

"the U.N. is 'indispensable' but also 'imperfect.'"
