RUSH EXCERPT:
OBAMA: “To the young people who led us this summer telling us we need to be better, in so many ways you are this country’s dreams fulfilled. Earlier generations had to be persuaded that everyone has equal worth. For you it’s a given. A conviction. What I want you to know is that for all its messiness and frustrations, your system of self-government can be harnessed to help you realize those convictions. For all of us. You can give our democracy new meaning. You can take it to a better place.”
