“Our military families also sacrifice for America. They endure sleepless nights and the daily struggle of providing for children while a loved one is serving far from home. We have a responsibility to provide for them. So I ask you to join me in expanding their access to childcare, creating new hiring preferences for military spouses across the Federal Government, and allowing our troops to transfer their unused education benefits to their spouses or children. [applause] Our military families serve our Nation, they inspire our Nation, and tonight our Nation honors them.” [applause]

“The secret of our strength, the miracle of America, is that our greatness lies not in our Government, but in the spirit and determination of our people. When the Federal Convention met in Philadelphia in 1787, our Nation was bound by the Articles of Confederation, which began with the words, ‘We the undersigned delegates.’ When Gouverneur Morris was asked to draft the preamble to our new Constitution, he offered an important revision and opened with words that changed the course of our Nation and the history of the world: ‘We the people.’”

Just what we need, more hiring preferences.

GWB cares about his own. We should not forget he flew jet interceptors in his younger years and did volunteer to join in the fray in NAM, but his training in F102's simply took him out of the race. Unlike a clown like Hanoi John, his bond has stayed strong with those that serve this nation in uniform.
