Okay, he talked about US and our allies, then called N. Korea, Iraq and Afghanistan an "axis of terror". What's with the WWII references?
I still don't feel comfortable with Homeland Security. This is how it begins, reasonable assurances of safety to a scared populace, and before you know it, we are losing civil liberties in the name of national security. Look at all those Asian Americans interred during WWII.
Still, a serious look at restructuring Social Security is good, Freedom Corps sounds like a good thing as long as it isn't required (like military service in some countries), and the teacher shortage has been predicted for at least 20 years so it's time to do something about that, though I think raising salaries would go a lot further than rhetoric.
Could be worse.
