If You Are Not Criticized, You May

Many People Around The President Have Sizeable Egos Before Entering Government, Some With Good Reason. Their New Positions Will Do Little To Moderate Their Egos.

Whatever New Threats And Challenges May Emerge, Our Nation Will Be Able To Face Them Squarely, Deal With Them, And Yet Allow Our People To Continue To Live Free And Unafraid. The Decisions You Make, The Courage And Creativity You Bring To Your Responsibilities, Will Determine America's Future. Liberty And Our Way Of Life Are Fragile Gifts - Their Care Is In Your Hands. We Thank You For Stepping Forward To Shoulder That Immense Responsibility. Your Country Is Grateful, And Proud Of Each Of You.

The Price Of Being Close To The President Is Delivering Bad News. You Fail Him If You Don't Tell Him The Truth. Others Won't Do It.

The United States Isn't Going To Do Anything That It's Not Capable Of Doing. And If We Do Something, We'll Be Capable Of Doing It.

It's A Difficult Thing Today To Be Informed About Our Government Even Without All The Secrecy.
