 do for your country1 and asked the     
nations of the world to come together to
 fight the common enemies of man3       
tyranny1 poverty1 disease1 and war      
itself2 ,whereas the ,president         
understood the importance of service to

family for their commitment to the      
,nation and the generations they        
inspired to also enter into public      
service2 and ,whereas ,may #bi1 #bjad1
