I could only read a few paragraphs without stronger coffee, but these two quotes made me pause. “(As I said in Cairo, each nation gives life to democracy in its own way, and in line with its own traditions.) But history offers a clear verdict: Governments that respect the will of their own people, that govern by consent and not coercion, are more prosperous, they are more stable, and more successful than governments that do not.” He has governed without consent and with coercion, so how can he say that?
In the 21st century, capable, reliable, and transparent “institutions are the key to success — strong parliaments; honest police forces; independent judges — (applause); an independent press; a vibrant private sector; a civil society. (Applause.) Those are the things that give life to democracy, because that is what matters in people’s everyday lives.”
So now he is lecturing on an independent press, vibrant private sector. Again, a lot of words without substance.
in other words, .....Do what I say, not what I do.
