Not many Americans--in fact not many human beings--have the opportunity to bring about permanent change in our world. Even if a person has the opportunity, it is seldom that change can be brought about in a time span of only 3 years. A distinguished exception to this is the president of the World Bank Group, James D. Wolfensohn. Under President Wolfensohn's wise guidance, the World Bank Group is facilitating global changes through the application of systems and knowledge developed in the United States. Jim Wolfensohn... I envy Jim Wolfensohn. He is truly making a difference in this world. It is my pleasure to commend his remarks to the Senate, and I ask unanimous consent that his statement entitled 'The Challenge of Inclusion' be printed in the Record.
