BARACK OBAMA in Berlin:
"To look at long-term trends in our economy, in our society, the international sphere and what will serve our people, keep the economy growing and put people back to work. Best ensure peace, cooperation and stability around the world. And based on current surveys of public opinion in the United States, it turns out that the majority of Americans think I've done a pretty good job. That we haven't, in fact, gone too fast, as you describe it. But what is certainly true is that the American people, just like the German people, just like the British and people around the world, are seeing extraordinarily rapid change."
