A MESSAGE FROM THE WHITE HOUSE
Annapolis, Maryland
May 25th
· In
recent years and even decades, too many people have forgotten that truth.
They’ve forgotten that our ancestors trounced an empire, tamed a continent, and
triumphed over the worst evils in history.
· · In
every generation, there have been cynics and critics who try to tear down
America. It's not working too well lately. But in recent years, the
problem grew worse. A growing number used their platforms to denigrate
America’s incredible heritage, challenge America’s sovereignty, and weaken
America’s pride.
· · But
we know the truth, we will speak the truth, and we will defend that
truth. America is the greatest fighting force for peace, justice, and
freedom in the history of the world. And in case you haven't noticed, we have
become a lot stronger lately.
· · We
are not going to apologize for America; we are going to stand up for
America. No more apologies. We are going to
stand up for our citizens. We are going to stand up for our values.
And we are going to stand up for our men and women in uniform. Because
we know that a nation must have pride in its history to have confidence in its
future.
· · We
are the nation that built the highways; the railroads; the Empire State
Building, in one year; the Golden Gate Bridge; and we are the nation that built
the Panama Canal. We trekked the mountains, explored the oceans, and
settled the vast frontier. We won two World Wars, defeated
communism and fascism, and put a man on the face of the moon. We
cured disease, pioneered science, and produced timeless works of art that
inspire the human soul.
· · Each
of you enters service at a truly exciting time for our country. For we
are witnessing the great reawakening of the American spirit and of American
might.
· We
have rediscovered our identity, regained our stride, and we're proud again.
Prosperity is booming at home, our economy is the strongest it's ever been, and
our country has regained the respect that we used have long ago abroad.
Yes, they're respecting us again. Yes,
America is back.
