I believe that the program of the previous four or five Presidents was aimed in the right direction.
I will reject any advice to pull down the Stars and Stripes and sail home from the seas of the world.
America has the will, America has the resources, America has the know-how, and America has the faith.
I will not engage in recriminations or attempts to assess the blame, nor should any of us.
