You can choose a future where more Americans have the chance to gain the skills they need to compete, no matter how old they are or how much money they have.

If I am elected President of these United States, I will work with all my energy and soul to restore that America, to lift our eyes to a better future. That future is our destiny. That future is out there. It is waiting for us. Our children deserve it, our nation depends upon it, the peace and freedom of the world require it.
