Fear, ignorance, racism, tribal hatred -- we may never completely rise above these things. But look at the world around you and you will see how far we have come to recognize that we can and most often do rise above these things. Those polls remind us of the risks we face in losing our values and democratic principles, not because of some foreign invader, but because we are haunted by doubts about our own abilities to live up to the ideals on which the United States was founded -- I do not believe this is the end of these values and principles. Quite the opposite. I think we are being thrust forward into a century where we will learn to project our values globally by reinforcing them at home -- and by respecting the rights and dignity of people in other countries as we learn to appreciate them and live with them in new ways -- including Islam. We are not a country to be admired because we have great wealth or power. We are a country to be admired because we have found something inside ourselves that will never give let us give in to fear and hatred and murder -- and the price we sometimes pay might seem too high. But we will pay it, and the polls be damned.
