Obama: “I will ask for your service and your active citizenship when I am president of the United States ... this will be a central cause of my presidency."

Obama: "People of all ages, stations, and skills will be asked to serve.... I will set a goal for all American middle and high school students to perform 50 hours of service a year, and for all college students to perform 100 hours of service a year...."
