in the first world war of dough buoys came from all parts of the united states, because to the first world war is the first time that we conscript a mass army from the very beginning of a conflict. so we'd also had drafts before in the past but they had come in the middle of a conflict, and the civil war when voluntary lenment dropped off. the first world war, we enact the draft right from the very beginning, a short window of opportunity to volunteer, and the army, and that closes off, and so what that means is 72% of the armis going to be conscripted and they have to spread the period out equally throughout the united states. every state has a quota, and the idea this really is a men's army that represents the american population. so there were a few reasons america decided to race the army different any in the first world war. the first reason is they expected there to be large casualties. america enters the war in 1917, so the war has been going on for two and a half years, so they understand and in fact they're going to need millions of men, and they're worried that after the fi

united states. for rights purposes, the bill of rights applied to territories in like manner or in the same way that it applied to states, and there's plenty of jurisprudence to affirm this logic. the imperialist tradition, which includes the occupation of native americans, was premised on the strategy of economic and military purposes. territories were selectively occupied, sometimes indefinitely, sometimes treated as foreign in a domestic sense. the constitutional clauses that were used were anything but the territories clause, including the commander in chief clause, the treaties clause, the commerce clause and a whole range of other constitutional clauses, but no occupied territory was governed under the territories clause or the government's power, constitutional source of power, did not emanate from the territories clause. citizenship of birth in an occupied territory was tantamount to birth outside of the united states, and unless congress enacted specific legislation, the children of citizen

we get to pick which refugees are special interests to the united states and bring them to the united states. the asylum program allows people who are already here to apply for asylum and there's no numerical limit on asylum. so if you can claim that you're a refugee and you're already here under our law and international law, we cannot return you to your home country. you qualify for discretionary asylum status in the united states, which can put you on a path to a green card and eventually becoming a u.s. citizen along with everybody else. no numerical limit. so it's very tempting, i think, given the fact that you may be a refugee in a displaced person camp in jordan or turkey and if the u.s. doesn't pick you, you're kind of stuck there. but if you can get yourself into the united states or at the border and make the claim, then you're going to get processed sooner or later. and i think that is a great temp tak temptation. and i think the administration frankly is trying to balance expectations and is deliberately, i think, trying to deter people by imposing some consequences on the

united states, the supreme court of the united states held that that was fine. that the united states had no obligation under its own laws or under international law to conduct asylum interviews on the high seas. so credible fear was a temporary measure, there probably wasn't even necessary in the end. it only lasted for a few months and i was startled to see credible fear appear in the statute of the united states. as part of our expedited removal process. when expedited removal came in, credible fear shows up in the statute. where does that come from? while it was invented as a device to screen out migrants, as has been commented on, it's being used now as a device to screen people in. so they don't have to actually prove their asylum claims. all they have to do is state credible fear. and they're basically in, they join the queue for an immigration judge so they can make their asylum claim in removal proceedings and we know that can sometimes take a long time. and the word is out. this is how you do it. you make a good credible fear claim and you're in. in th

cuba doesn't have to be defined by being against the united states any more than the united states should be defined by being against cuba. and i'm hopeful for the future because of the reconciliation that's taking place among the cuban people. you know, i know that for some cubans on the island, there may be a sense that those who left somehow supported the old order in cuba. i'm sure there's a narrative that lingers here, which suggests that cuban exiles ignored the problems of pre-revolutionary cuba and rejected the struggle to build a new future. but i can tell you today that so many cuban exiles carry a memory of painful and sometimes violent separation. they love cuba. a part of them still considers this their true home. that's why their passion is so strong. that's why their heartache is so great. and for the cuban-american community i have come to know and respect, this is not just about politics. this is about family. the memory of a home that was lost. the desire to rebuild a broken bond. the hope for a better future, the hope for a return and reconciliation. for all of the poli

united.s also why, as president, i will make a firm commitment to ensure israel maintains its qualitative military edge. the united states should provide israel with the most sophisticated defense technology so it can deter and stop any threats. that includes bolstering israeli missile defenses with new systems like the arrow three and david's sling. and we should work together to develop better tunnel detection, technology to prevent armed smuggling, kidnapping and terrorist attacks. one of the first things i'll do in office is invite the israeli prime minister to visit the white house. (applause) and i will send a delegation from the pentagon and the joint chiefs to israel for early consultations. let's also expand our collaboration beyond security. together, we can build an even more vibrant culture of innovation that tightens the links between silicon valley and israeli tech companies and entrepreneurs. there is much americans can learn from israel, from cybersecurity to energy security t

there's no shortage of self-criticism in the united states. certainly no shortage of criticism of its president or it's government or foreign policy. and there's issues where i'm criticized from the left and the right at the same time. although for different reasons. the one thing that i will say is true though is is that everything that we do today is desi designed to take into account transparency, human rights, to speak out on behalf of the issues. and i make a trip to havana and i said the people of cuba had nothing to fear from me but you should know what i really believe. i believe the democracy is better than a one party or one person dictatorship. and i would say the same thing when i'm in china or russia or with some of our allies. and learn some of the lessons that we may not have fully learned at an earlier time. and ultimately more successful in foreign policy. >> no terms of brazil we didn't discuss it extensively other than the fact that we hope brazil resolves it's current political crisis in an effective way. it is a big countr
