possibilities out there for me and help me, you know, along the way. there are always interested adults who you can tap into, but they need not be old, old people, you know? like me. they don't have to befor peopley can be college kids. people just graduating. people you know have -- you have a sense of those who have a good sense of what they are doing with their lives. there are people out there who are willing to engage with you or willing to help you become all that you can be. >> our next question is, overall we have been doing a lot of things involving citizens engagement. what do you believe the true importance of citizens in great man is -- engagement is? > >> it is never too early to be

involved in the running of this country. even if you are too young to be voting. trying to identify issues that are not going quite well in your neighborhood, your cities, come up with ways in which you find programs that are addressing these issues. become a part of those programs. if you train yourself to do those things and make that a routine part of your life, it will be something that will live with you forever. it will be a part of what to do. you have a great family life, school and academic experience, and any notion of service. you are a selective group of young people. you have a future. if you dedicate yourself to bettering this country, you'll make america has goods -- as

good as it was in the 20th- century. american becomes great because of the people who leaked it. we will look to you all in this century to ensure that america and the 21st century repeat all the great things that we get in the 20th century. >> what was your biggest inspiration becoming civil servant? >> interesting question. i think it goes back to john kennedy. he was president of the u.s. in 1960. he took office in january of 1961. we celebrated the 50th anniversary of the swearing in of robert kennedy, his brother. by most famous predecessor. both kennedys stressed the need for involvement in government. they pointed out government could be a force for good.

president kennedy began the peace corps. he talked about government as a force that could do good things in our nation. i had a chance to win is that. i grew up when the civil rights movement was in full flower. it to see the role that the forral government platyed -- instance where a young woman walked into the schoolhouse over the opposition of her state's governor, she turned out to be my future sister in law. i watched that on tv in new york city where i grew up. to see federal marshals and the deputy attorney general there help her achieve that goal is instilled in me the notion that 7 engagement beatrix civic engagement could be interesting and worthwhile. you all are blessed with a great deal of idealism. i hope that he will not lose that idealism as you get older.

i always think about ways in which you can make this nation better. whether it is civic engagement, government service, or in the private sector. there are a whole bunch of ways in which you can make this nation better and in which you can serve. that is an expectation i think that you all should have. how will you make this country better? you are the best and brightest of your generation. we will look to you for the leadership that will be needed. [applause] >> thank you very much, mr. attorney general. on behalf of the boys and girls club of america, here is this picture as a token of our gratitude. thank you. [applause]

[cheers and applause] >> hello, atlanta. hello, hello. thank you. thank you, atlanta.

thank you so much. it is good to see everybody here back in atlanta. a couple of people went to awknowledge. you're at standing near -- your outstanding a year. the former governor is in the house. i want to garbaciak all the people who made this -- i want to thank all the people who made this an extraordinary event. a special shot up to one of my favorite people -- sht out to one of my favorite people. he is a troublemaker. he is irascible. he is a man of god in a man of the people. he has been a great friend to me for a very long time. give it up for the rev.. [applause] i love that man.

atlanta, and i am here that just because i want your help, although i do. [applause] but, i am here because your country need your help. backing 2008, we came together -- back in 2008, we came together because we believe in a basic freedom that built this country. a basic idea that in america, your life is not determined by the circumstances of your birth. the idea that here in america, if you are willing to work hard, then you can find a job that pays a living wage. you can care for your family. you can have a home.

you can send your kids to college in allow them to have experiences and opportunities you did not even dreamed up. you can retire with dignity and respect. that basic american idea that if you take responsibility for your own life, you can go as far as your dreams can take you into it does not matter -- it it does not matter what you look like, where you come from, what tour last name is. who you love. that basic american idea that you can make it if you try. and for almost a decade, we have seen that dream that built the largest middle-class in history and the most successful economy in history. we have seen that dream slipping away. we watched surplus is turned

into a deficit. we have seen two or scott on credit cards. we have seen people at the top do really well or more and more folks -- where more and more forks are struggling to get by. we of higher costs of health care, education. we're not seeing higher incomes. this was all before the worst financial crisis in our lifetimes struck. in the worst economic crisis in our lifetimes. over the last three and a half years, that journey we began, it has been tough sometimes. we have had a steep mountain to climb. slowly and surely, the american people have proven once again that they are tougher than tough times. there were folks who said, let us let the trick go bankrupt. we said, let us invest in american workers and businesses. now, the american auto industry

is back on top. [applause] all across the country, folks who lost their jobs went to school. it be retrained for industries of the future. small businesses hung on, no matter how tough it was here to poke some payroll. they understood families were defending -- depending on them. we have seen steady progress in steady movement. more than 4 million jobs graded over the last 27 months. more than 800,000 created in the last month -- two months. we'll understand we had a big hole that was greeted by a crisis. -- created by this crisis. it will take more than just a few months or a few years to figure our way out of the whole because this is a challenge that has existed for over a decade now.

we recognize there are too many of our friends who do not have worked yet to many of our family members who have not -- we have more work to do. we have so much more work to do. the question is not whether we need to put more folks back to work or whether the economy should be growing faster or whether the deadbeats to come down, the question is, how do we do it? how do we do it? in this election, all of you have the opportunity to choose between two fundamentally different figures of how you grow america. two fundamentally different visions about who we are as a people. what makes this nation great. on one side, you have mr. romney and his allies in congress -- he is a patriotic american.

he has a beautiful family. he has been successful in his life. [laughter] no, he is. but his basic vision is one in which if wealthy investors like him or folks at the very top are freed up from any kind of regulations, if they are maximizing their profits, even if it meets polluting more or offshoring jobs or avoiding taxes or busting unions, whatever the strategy, if they are doing well, then everybody else is automatically doing well. that is their view. that is basically their economic plan. i am not making this up. it is on his website. members of congress voted for this plan. their basic idea is to eliminate

regulations on everything. we are going to provide a five trillion dollar tax cut on top of the bush tax cuts for the wealthiest americans. and, we are just calling to let the market take care of the rest and the presumption is that everybody here and around the country will share in this newfound prosperity. now, i do not doubt that they will execute this plan if they get elected. here is the problem. wee-ger added. -- we tried it. it didn't work. that kind of top down economics has never worked. this is good for a few, but it

does not help the broadbased middle class and folks having ladders to get into the middle class that made this country great. we have an alternative vision. because i believe we are all in this together. i had a vision that says the way we're going to grow our economy and put people back to work is to make sure that every child in america has the best education possible. [applause] saysve a vision that make the way we grow our economy is to bring manufacturing back to the u.s. [applause] i have a vision that says the way we build our economy is to rebuild america. our roads. our present -- bridges. our airports. putting people back to work. [applause] i have a vision that says we

will grow our economy if we can put our energy sources together so we are not dependent on the middle east. that is why we have to double down on clean energy. wind power. solar power. and i have a vision that says we grow the best when our tax code makes sure that the wealthiest americans are paying a little bit more. in order to bring down our debt. the basic idea that everybody gets a fair shot. and everybody dos -- does their fair share and everybody plays by the same set of rules. that is my vision for america. just like their vision has been tested, my vision has been tested, as well. when you look at the history of this country, the way we emerged

as an economic superpower is doing it together. my grandfather's generation was educated on the gi bill. we did that together. we made an investment in the common good. the hoover dam, the interstate highway system, we did those things together because we understood everybody would be more successful. if we were making those common investments that gave each of us the capacity to do well. abraham lincoln, the first republican president said it pretty well. he said we should do for ourselves what we do best. we should do those things together that we do better together. [applause] and so, we made investments in science and technology. inventing products that led to

the internet and gps int google a it amazing medical breakthroughs. we did that because together, through our government, we made these investments in basic research. we did all of these things throughout our history, not because they were good for one particular person or one particular group, but because there were good for all of us. because we understood we rise and fall as one people. as one nation. [applause] that is my vision for america. that is what i have been fighting for for the last three and a half years. that is why i am running for a second term as president of the united states of america. [applause] >> one more year!

one more year! -- 4 more years! four more years! >> but we break this down. -- let me break this down. let us look at the specifics of mr. romney's plan. he wants to get rid of the wall street reform we did to make sure we do not have any taxpayer bailouts. that is one big part of his plan. then you have the plan to cut taxes by about $five trillion. what this would mean the average millionaire would see their taxes go down by 25%. now, you may be wondering how is it that he can talk about cutting taxes by $five trillion

and it saved he is going to reduce our deficit? we have to control of the deficit and the dead. we cannot pass this on to the generation. how do the numbers were? well, mr. romney says that out of that portion of the federal budget that finances everything from education to head start to health care to environmental protections -- all the things we think of, one trillion dollars get cut out of that. that means that a lot of people suddenly will not have the

protection. a lot of folks around the country will not be getting services we think are part of what makes america great. that is only one trillion dollars. that does not -- the next up would be to have tens of millions of people along have health insurance. he would roll back the affordable care act and hurt medicaid. folks who may be disabled. seniors who are relying on those services, that would be eliminated. that does not pay for five trillion dollars. that is not enough. then, they would have to eliminate a whole bunch of deductions that middle-class families count on to keep their taxes will be. -- low.

your family, your friends, middle-class people all across the country would end up seeing higher taxes to pay for tax cuts for mr. romney and i. it ain't right. [laughter] [applause] a recipe forno t economic growth. that is not going to make us stronger. that is not going to make our young people more educated. that is not going to make us more competitive in this global economy. what i have said is no. here is what we need to do. we need to invest more in education. i want to hire more teachers, especially in math and science. [applause] i 1 2 million more people to

have access to community colleges -- i want to million people to have access to community colleges so they can get jobs right now. i want to make college more affordable so young people do not have as much debt when they graduate. that is my vision for how we will move forward. [applause] i want to stop giving subsidies to oil companies that have never been more successful, never made more profits. i want to take that money and give subsidies to clean energy, to the energy of the future that has never been more profitable. it -- promising. fuel-efficient cars. solar power. when pa. biodiesel. putting folks back to work. creating homegrown energy so we are less dependent on foreign oil. [applause] i want to invest in science and technology. all across the country.

that has always been what has maintained our cutting edge. as you know, i promised i would end the war in iraq. [applause] we ended it. we are phasing down the war in afghanistan. the i want to take half of those savings, pay down the deficit, and take the other half and do some nation-building right here at home. putting folks back to work. rebuilding our infrastructure. all across the country. i want to change our tax code because i am tired of us giving tax breaks to companies that it shipped overseas. we want to invest right here in atlanta. right here in the u.s. [applause]

there was an article the other day in "the washington post" about mr. romney's former firm was a pioneer in offshore jobs to china and india. when they were asked about it, his advisers explained there was a difference between offshoring and outsourcing [laughter] . i am not kidding. that is what they said. those workers who lost their jobs did not understand the difference. [laughter] the point is that we do not need somebody who is a pioneer in offshoring or outsourcing. we need a president in the white house who will be fighting to bring jobs back to the u.s. do some in sourcing.

but folks back to work here. [applause] on this tax code, as i said, i do not think that a $250,000 tax break for me or mr. romney -- he would get a little more. he has more than i do. [laughter] i do not think that is more important than us out -- hiring outstanding teachers. i do not think that is more important than us defending broad bay and services so folks have access to the internet. that one not help our economy grow more than us investing in tours for alzheimer's or cancer. [applause] i want to bring down the deficit in a responsible, balanced way. i have put forward a plan for $4 trillion dollars in deficit

reduction. asking the wealthiest to pay more. when you talk to folks around the country, successful americans, they want to do more. if it is done right, they want to contribute to making america stronger. if you askws is, people between these two divisions, the american people have a sense of what makes sense. they prefer or vision. -- our vision. this will still be a close election because the economy is still suffering. folks are still frustrated but that means is we will have more

money spent in this election than ever before by the other side of negative advertisements and their message will be simple. they will say the economy is bad. it is obama's fall. -- fault. they suffer and the show so they do not remember all the stuff that happened before i was sworn into office. [applause] that will be their message. and because times are tough and because we are spending these ungodly sums, it will be close. here is the thing that all of you taught me from 2008. when the american people decide that something is important, when ordinary citizens come together to talk to their

neighbors and their friends and co-workers and they start getting organized, amazing things happen. change happens. no matter how much money is spent on the other side, when people learned each and involved -- are engaged in involved in the understand that our core values and what we are giving to the next generation is at stake, the american people fight for what is right. [applause] pande american people understand we are not want to make progress free kick the american people understand we are not going to make progress by going backwards. we have 3 million young people who are on their parents' health insurance plan that did not have that before. it is the right thing to do to

get seniors discount on their prescription drugs and the right thing to do to get 30 million americans health insurance that did not have it before. it [applause] they want to go forward. they understand it is the right thing to do. make sure we do not have the bailout of three -- we have basic regulations to protect our consumers. they do not want to go backwards. they do not want to go back to the days when women had a tough time getting access to birth control or planned parenthood. they want women to have control over their own health care choices. they did not want to go backwards. they do not want to go back to the days when you might not be able to fight for the country love just because of who you love. they do not want to let -- don't ask don't tell reinstated.

they do not want to go backwards to a day when young people with children were brought to the u.s. and raised with our kids and went to school with our kids, or our kids, our american schools -- somehow they should be sent away instead of contributing to the united states of america. they do not want to go back to that. [applause] i have faith in the american people. when we started this back in 2008, i did not have all this gray hair. [laughter] >> you look good!. >> but from traveling all across the country, my faith and

conviction in the strength and resilience and goodness and decency of the american people is restored every single day. i have so much confidence that even when we take the wrong turn roadntually, the straightens out. we follow the right path. this is a blessed country. [applause] so, you know, we will see some cynicism and foolishness during the course of this campaign. [laughter] this campaign will have its ups and downs. but i remind you wha twhat i

said in 2008. i am not a perfect man. i will never be perfect president. i will always tell you what i thought. i will always tell you what i believe in. i will wake up every single day and fight as hard as i know how for you. [applause] i will fight as hard as i know how for all those folks who are doing the right thing out there. all those people who kept faith with this country. i have kept that promise. i have kept that promise. i believe in you. i hope you still believe in me. [applause] i hope you are ready to stand. i hope you're ready to fight. i hope you are ready to knock on some doors. and make some phone calls. talk to your friends. talk to your neighbors. get them to the polls. if you do, we will finish what we started in 2008. [applause]

we will rebuild this economy and rebuild our middle-class. we will remind the world why it is we are the greatest nation on earth. god bless you. god bless the united states of america.

>> mitt romney talked about the supreme court's ruling on the arizona's immigration law and are pending decision thursday on the health care law. he read those comments in salem, virginia as part of a two-day visit to the state. this is 20 minutes. [applause] >> thank you. thank you. thank you. [laughter]

[applause] >> mitt! mitt! >> thank you. thank you for that introduction. look at those pieces of equipment. i want to see them working. this is a busy week for the supreme court. it i think all their work highlights the leadership failures of our current president. when he was running for office, he said he would make his first priority in his first year to reform our immigration system to make it work for the american people and for those who want to come here illegally. -- legally. he had a democrat house, democrats senate. he did nothing.

why? the supreme court had to step in because states had to step in. states looking to find a way to solve the problem that he did not address. now, the supreme court has looked at it and we are left with a bit of a -- and the president failed to lead. [applause] instead of focusing on immigration and the economy, he focused on obamacare. >> boo! >> as you know, thesupreme court will be dealing with are not obamacare is constitutional. if it is not, the first three and a half years of this president's term was wasted on something that has not helped the american people.

if it is deemed to stand, i will tell you one thing, we will have to have a president that will get rid of obamacare. we will stop it on day one. [applause] what we're witnessing is a failure of the president's policies. he did not deal with immigration. he put obamacare as a higher priority than our economy. we have had 40 straight months with unemployment above 8%. the economy is not working. this president has not been working for the american people. each is time for that to change. -- it is time for that to change. [applause] he is in a tight spot. he said when he was running he would turn the economy around. you may recall that he said if he could not, he would be a one-

term president. [applause] he did a speech the other night trying to convince people he did turn the economy around. he said the private sector was doing fine. your voice is like the voice of 23 million people who said, we are not so happy. the private sector is not doing so fine. when people who were promised if they let the government borrows $787 billion, on a point would stay below 8%, they said unemployment has never been bowl oelow that. people recognize the economy is not doing just fine. the president had to change his tune. he said buy programs are working. they just take a long time to be affected. give me four more years. we are not going to let him turn a one-term proposition into an eight your proposition.

[applause] let me ask you, do you think obamacare is working just fine to get americans back to work? do you think that shutting down the keystone pipeline from canada it is tell the american people? do you think that raising taxes on small businesses like this are going to put american people back to work? what do you think about the avalanche of new regulations? is that helping americans get jobs? no. this president is out of ideas and excuses. in november, we will put him out of office. [applause] komen one thing he has said in the speech of his aunt was that every american deserves a fair shot. i agree. every american should know that if they work hard and get an

education and have the right kind of values, they have a fair shot for a bright future and be able to provide for their families. a fair shot to realize their dreams. then i looked at this president's record. let me ask you some questions about these things. do you think when we passed trillions of dollars of our debt on to the next generation, this president is giving the next generation a fair shot? do you think when 50% of the kids to graduate from college this year cannot find jobs, that is giving our college gets a fair shot? do you think that when the president puts the interests of the teachers union ahead of the interest of the teachers into the kids, that gives them a fair shot? do you think that when he takes tax dollars from you and then uses it to give guarantees and investment into some of the businesses of its contributors, does that give the american people a fair shot? how about when he closes down

coal mines and says no to developing oil resources. does that get the people work in those industries -- does that give them a fair shot? let me tell you, if there has ever been a president of the united states that has not given a fair shot to the middle income families of america, it is president obama. that is what he will be replaced in november. [applause] let me tell you, if we get a new direction, you will see an economic resurgence that will surprise a lot of folks. i am convinced america's economy will come back. i am convinced that will happen. number one, we will take advantage of our energy resources. nuclear. renewable. cold. oil. gas. the other day, the president said he is in favor of all the

above. i wondered what he meant because he has made it harder to mine coal into school, harder to get reliable sources of natural gas is in drilling for oil. i wondered how he could say he is for all of the above. he is for all the sources of energy that come from above the ground. not the ones that come below the ground. if we were to take advantage of what comes below -- if i am president, i will take advantage of what comes below and above and get energy independence. [applause] let me tell you what else i will do, i will take advantage of trade with other nations. a highly productive nation like we are benefits if we can open up markets where we can sell our goods. particularly next door to us like an inland america. other nations will figure this out. china and the european nations over the last three and half years have negotiated 44

different agreements with other nations around the world to open up markets for their goods and put people to work. guess how many agreements this president has negotiated? zero. no new agreements i will open up markets and make sure we trade on a fair basis. when they cheat, as china has cheated on, i will crackdown. the president said he would. we will get good jobs by trading around the world fairly -- trading around the world fairly. [applause] one thing that frightens people who are thinking of investing here with capital and build a new businesses in start-ups of all kind, they wonder whether their dollars will be worth anything because of all of these deficits we are running up. trillion dollar deficit. this president broker record.

he has put together almost as much public debt as all the prior presidents combined. if i am president of the u.s., i will recognize that is not both wrong economically, but it is immoral. i will get us on track to a balanced budget. [applause] i am going to get rid of the big cloud of uncertainty that is hanging over all sorts of small businesses. i am going to get rid of the cost of obamacare and return us to personal responsibility in states' rights as it relates to health care. to get this economy going, there is one more thing i would like to do. this economy runs on freedom. not on government. we have to get government smaller and freedom greater.

it we are still a freedom- loving pioneering innovative can do people. you may not see it every day because you do not get to see the places i have been able to see. was with a woman in las vegas who has a business. she rents furniture to casinos and conventioners that come to las vegas. i went into a warehouse. when the president said not to bother coming to las vegas, to go to a company meeting, her business collapsed. she thought she would lose her employees center business. then, she had a candle idea. she said, i'm going to have these people learn how to make furniture. she sells it. she employs her people. that is the kind of attitude that exists in this country. [applause] i met another guy it who said he

was not a great student. he said, dad, i do not want to go to college. his dad told him he wanted to go. he said that want to borrow money from you. he said, i want to borrow $20,000 from you to start a restaurant. his dad said, ok. if you can pay it back at the end of the year, with interest, you can stay in your business. if not, i am sending you a different direction. this kid took the money and started a restaurant here he found out that with $10,000, you could not build much of a reston. the only thing he could make -- hot dogs and hamburgers, everything was too expensive for the money he borrowed. he would decide -- decided to make sandwiches, instead. 's has thousandso

of restaurants. that is the kind of can-do attitude. i met a guy named harold palin. -- harold ham. he saved his money driving trucks to get an education. he gets a degree in geology. he happens to look at maps of the u.s. and concludes there must be some energy in the mountains of north dakota. so, he goes up there and start drilling for oil. first well, nothing. second well, nothing. 16th street, nothing. i am told a dry hole costs $5 million. i cannot imagine where he got the investors to give him that money. on the 17th, there got their return. in this spot and rich, there are about 20 billion barrels of oil. he is doing just fine, by the way.

american entrepreneurship, freedom and free enterprise drives our economy. i am going to bring it back. [applause] this is how the founders saw it. this is how the invasion america. they did not want to have a country that was guided by a government. they wanted to have a country that was driven by free people pursuing their dreams. in the declaration of independence, they said it was the creator that endowed us with our rights. that the government. [applause] -- not the government. [applause] you know those rights. they said we would have the right of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. by virtue of that phrase, they were referring to the reality that here in america, people would be able to pursue happiness as they choose. the government would not tell

them what they had to do. we would not say to people, you cannot achieve your dreams because of the place you are born or the language of your origin. we said, this is the land of opportunity. this is where you can pursue those dreams. that is what has made america what it is. it is free people pursuing their dreams. we want dreamer's here in america. [applause] the president says he wants to fundamentally transform america. it i do not want to transform america. i want to restore the principles that made us the hope of the earth. i will do it. [applause] the consequence of doing this right compared to going down the path we are on could not be more stark. the president has put us on a path to europe. europe does not work in europe. it will never work here.

the right course for america is to restore the principles that made us a power house. economic freedom. small government. taking advantage of our national resources like coal and oil and gas. having traded with other nations. cracking down on those who cheat. building infrastructure that makes us more competitive. there are things we will do. i will do. they will get this economy going again. as a result, we will put people back to work in and convince the american families that their kids will have a bright future. that is what this election is about. getting americans to work again. [applause] e is one more feature, consequence of making the right decision. that is the consequence for freedom itself. here and around the world. i happen to believe that

is essentialtrength to preserve liberty. i was in great britain some time ago and spoke with tony blair and david cameron and other leaders of the government. one of the said something to me -- then sets of the to me. if you are lucky enough to be elected president of the united states and you travel abroad to other countries, you will here what they think your mistakes are. what we all fear the most is a week america. [applause] american strength is essential for liberty here and around the world. [applause] the world has seen that strength time and again. of the world has seen a strong america in the past.

in memorial day, i was in san diego and celebrating with our veterans. the honor associated with those who serve our country and have served in the past. three of the veterans were from the second world war. one of whom was it look out on the uss tennessee on the day of pearl harbor. as he looked up and saw the aircraft, he said his eyes locked on the eye of the pilot bringing an attack. he was injured in that conflict that day. he went on to serve for 33 years in the u.s. navy. the audience applauded as they recognized his sacrifice for america. [applause] these veterans are not as many as they used to be. those that are still with us cannot hold the torch of freedom as high as they used to. it is not america's torch. it is america's duty to hold the torch of freedom and hope and
