...strong enough to be a peacemaker.

It is proud. Proud enough to be patient.

The whisperers, the detractors,

the violent men are wrong.

We will remain strong and proud,

...all men will walk out

...into the bright sunshine of freedom.

Ladies and gentlemen, that was

the President of the United States.
