Obama's Letter to the People of Illinois
Obama's Letter to the People of Illinois
November 16, 2008
BY PRESIDENT-ELECT BARACK OBAMA
Today, I am ending one journey to begin another. After serving the people of Illinois in the United States Senate -- one of the highest honors and privileges of my life -- I am stepping down as senator to prepare for the responsibilities I will assume as our nation's next president. But I will never forget, and will forever be grateful, to the men and women of this great state who made my life in public service possible.
More than two decades ago, I arrived in Illinois as a young man eager to do my part in building a better America. On the South Side of Chicago, I worked with families who had lost jobs and lost hope when the local steel plant closed. It wasn't easy, but we slowly rebuilt those neighborhoods one block at a time, and in the process I received the best education I ever had. It's an education that led me to organize a voter registration project in Chicago, stand up for the rights of Illinois families as an attorney and eventually run for the Illinois state Senate.
It was in Springfield, in the heartland of America, where I saw all that is America converge -- farmers and teachers, businessmen and laborers, all of them with a story to tell, all of them seeking a seat at the table, all of them clamoring to be heard. It was there that I learned to disagree without being disagreeable; to seek compromise while holding fast to those principles that can never be compromised, and to always assume the best in people instead of the worst. Later, when I made the decision to run for the United States Senate, the core decency and generosity of the American people is exactly what I saw as I traveled across our great state -- from Chicago to Cairo; from Decatur to Quincy.
I still remember the young woman in East St. Louis who had the grades, the drive and the will but not the money to go to college. I remember the young men and women I met at VFW halls across the state who serve our nation bravely in Iraq and Afghanistan. And I will never forget the workers in Galesburg who faced the closing of a plant they had given their lives to, who wondered how they would provide health care to their sick children with no job and little savings.
Stories like these are why I came to Illinois all those years ago, and they will stay with me when I go to the White House in January. The challenges we face as a nation are now more numerous and difficult than when I first arrived in Chicago, but I have no doubt that we can meet them. For throughout my years in Illinois, I have heard hope as often as I have heard heartache. Where I have seen struggle, I have seen great strength. And in a state as broad and diverse in background and belief as any in our nation, I have found a spirit of unity and purpose that can steer us through the most troubled waters.
It was long ago that another son of Illinois left for Washington. A greater man who spoke to a nation far more divided, Abraham Lincoln, said of his home, "To this place, and the kindness of these people, I owe everything." Today, I feel the same, and like Lincoln, I ask for your support, your prayers, and for us to "confidently hope that all will yet be well."
With your help, along with the service and sacrifice of Americans across the nation who are hungry for change and ready to bring it about, I have faith that all will in fact be well. And it is with that faith, and the high hopes I have for the enduring power of the American idea, that I offer the people of my beloved home a very affectionate thanks.3 commenti 380 giorni

Obama Transition Announces Rules for Lobbyists in Transition
Obama Transition Announces Rules for Lobbyists in Transition
by Christopher HassWednesday November 12 2008 04:21:39 AM
As reported on Change.gov, the office of the President-elect Barack Obama today announced the strictest, and most far reaching ethics rules of any transition team in history. The rules are:
* Federal Lobbyists cannot contribute financially to the transition.
* Federal lobbyists are prohibited from any lobbying during their work with the transition.
* If someone has lobbied in the last 12 months, they are prohibited from working in the fields of policy on which they lobbied.
* If someone becomes a lobbyist after working on the Transition, they are prohibited from lobbying the Administration for 12 months on matters on which they worked.
* A gift ban that is aggressive in reducing the influence of special interests.
Norm Ornstein, from the American Enterprise Institute, said in relation to the announcement:
Restoring trust in government is a prerequisite to enacting good policy and the tough choices the country needs. This ethics policy for the transition is a far-reaching, bold and constructive step to do just that. The policy may exclude some good people with deep experience in their fields, but it will also exclude those who see government service as a springboard to financial success, or who are more intent on pleasing future potential employers or clients than making tough choices in the public interest. As much as anything, this ethics policy is a statement about the tone and tenor of the Obama administration. It is a good sign.0 commenti 384 giorni



























Mr.President...theres another hitler behind this lisbon treaty and eire want no part of it...the goverment tamperd with the votes to get the yes...we would rather b part of america than europe since its our mother land too...your the man with the power and should try sort it out coz its goin back to the old days with ireland and its goin to keep gettin worse...there should b another vote...would eire rather b part of america or europe???????
The name has increased in popularity for the new born's, so he must be a great President personally, than on his policies. Certain one's disagreeable, certain one's acceptable and certain one's definitely agreed
Democrat's FTW! OBAMA FTW!
barack obama obama obama
love the name !!!
Holy crap PASTOR MANNINGS! lol
How can you say those things when you so proudly profess to be a member of the church of Latter Day Saints, whose leader is a supposed WHITE MAN?? You got issues bruddah!
Hate is hate, don't matter what colour you are. As far as I know, Obama is about the complete opposite, which is probably the REAL reason why you don't like him. He's about unity and focussing on the commonalities we have with eachother, not our differences. Take a leaf out of his book, and try find the love heart man!! I'm sure the book of Mormon would agree with me!! PEACE! CTR!!
