maher -- the president has been very clear about how strongly condemns this action. >> [inaudible] >>we are interested in outcomes. we are interested in taking the measures that will actually have the desired effect, to get the libyan government to stop the bloodshed. the president is absolutely focused on this. as a secretary clinton and the rest of the national security team. >> we have talked about americans on the ground. >> i do not want to speculate about what might happen. anytime you have a situation like this, you have to gauge what the response will be to the actions you take. it is a fluid dynamic and dangerous situation. we are committed to getting this right so that the libyan people no longer are subjected to the kind of violence that they're being subjected to by the government. >> back on the situation with libya. gas prices are going up here in america. is the administration asking countries in africa that export oil to us -- are they asking canada, mexico, saudi arabia to increase their oil output to keep prices down? >> as whenever you have unrest in this part of th

[cheers and applause] ladies and jump cement, for those of you that are serious about saving our country, destiny has charged and i have the honor of introducing tonight he is one of our greatest leaders in the country and someone remarkably different from that current tenant in the white house. [cheers and applause] let's talk about him for a second. president obama grew up privileged in the greatest country on earth, and yet, a country that has given him, indeed given all of us so much, does so very little to inspire him. how is that possible? in fact, it seems that at every turn, he finds an opportunity to apologize for america and how he believes the very fabric of this nation is inherently flawed. and
