http://www.archives.gov/exhibit_hall/american_originals/kennedy.html

Extractions: President John F. Kennedy, Berlin, Germany, June 26, 1963 The cold war is the term for the rivalry between the two blocs of contending states that emerged following World War II. It was a series of confrontations and tests of wills between the non-Communist states, led by the United States and Great Britain, and the Communist bloc, led by the Soviet Union, that lasted 45 years and, at one point, drew the world to the brink of nuclear war. In August 1961 the Soviets erected the Berlin Wall to stop the mass exodus of people fleeing Soviet East Berlin for West Berlin and the non-Communist world. The wall was a mass of concrete, barbed wire, and stone that cut into the heart of the city, separating families and friends. For 28 years, it stood as a grim symbol of the gulf between the Communist East and the non-Communist West. In 1989 the Berlin Wall fell, signalling the end of the cold war. National Archives

Online NewsHour: Inauguration 2001
poet Miller Williams read Of history and Hope year s inaugural will be CelebratingAmerica s Spirit Together The presidential Inaugural Committee has final say
http://www.pbs.org/newshour/inauguration/history.html

Extractions: Deeply rooted in tradition, the presidential inauguration marks a new beginning for both the United States and its brand new president. Beginning with General George Washington's 1789 inauguration in New York City, many presidents have added their own unique traditions that will continue into 2001. The oath of office is the main focus of the inauguration ceremony and the only part required by law. In Article II, Section 1, of the U.S. Constitution, the founding fathers provided an oath of office for the President-elect's official swearing in. This 35-word vow has not changed since the 18th century. "I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will try to the best of my ability, to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States." George Washington added the phrase "so help me God" to the end of his oath, and almost every president has added it since. He also followed his swearing-in with the first inaugural address another tradition most presidents have also adopted. "The preservation of the sacred fire of liberty, and the destiny of the Republican model of Government, are justly considered as deeply, perhaps as finally staked, on the experiment entrusted to the hands of the American people," Washington said.
The Japanese-American Relocation - Thirteen Frequently Asked Questions - (FAQ)
Listing of standard arguments used to stir up opposition to the US government's redress and presidential apology for wrongs done Japaneseamerican WW II relocation camp inmates.
http://www.pnorthwestbooks.com/docs/ja_faq.html

Extractions: Additional Information by Bert Webber-MLS 1.Is it true that only Japanese Nationals (adults) were interned, not Japanese-American citizens? These days, the wartime terms "internment" and "relocation" are often confused and used interchangeably. Only enemy aliens were interned, but not all of them. Resident enemy nationals (German, Italian, Japanese) arrested by the FBI on security charges were given individual hearings and either paroled or interned. No Japanese-Americans were interned unless they had first renounced their U.S. citizenship. Internees were placed in Department of Justice camps under Army control to await deportation and repatriation. Non-alien family members (spouses and children) were allowed to accompany them as "voluntary internees." Many enemy aliens were not interned but were evacuated from the West Coast war zones. They either moved elsewhere on their own or, in the case of most Japanese, entered relocation centers. Relocation centers were separately operated by the civilian War Relocation Authority 2. Is it true that the Internment did not applied to the whole country, only to CA?

Extractions: Presidential Policies on Indian Self-Determination and Self-Government Since 1968, every presidential administration has espoused the principles of self-determination and self-government for Indian tribes. In this section are excerpts from speeches and memos from various presidents, each of whom believed that Native Americans could best succeed under a policy of self-determination and self-government. "Special Message to Congress on the Problems of the American Indian: The Forgotten American," March 6, 1968: "I propose a new goal for our Indian programs: A goal that ends the old debate about 'termination' of Indian programs and stresses self-determination... The greatest hope for Indian progress lies in the emergence of Indian leadership and initiative in solving Indian problems. Indians must have a voice in making the plans and decisions in programs which are important to their daily life... "The program I propose seeks to promote Indian development by improving health and education, encouraging long-term economic growth, and strengthening community institutions....

of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and lawsof the United States, do hereby proclaim March 2004 as Women s history Month.
http://www.nwhp.org/whm/2004/proclamation.html

Extractions: NWHP Theme During Women's History Month, we celebrate the many accomplishments of our Nation's women. Women are leaders in American business, government, law, science, medicine, the arts, education, and many other fields. As mothers, sisters, and daughters, they bring compassion and integrity to our communities and help to teach our children the values that make our country great. Women today are following in the footsteps of pioneers such as Sarah Pierce, Emma Willard, Catherine Beecher, and Mary Lyon, who helped open the doors to higher education for women in our country. Their vision and determination changed America forever. Women today also join a long tradition of defending our Nation. During the Revolutionary War, Margaret Cochran Corbin fought as a gunner and was severely wounded at the battle of Fort Washington. Today, more than 200,000 women are serving in our Nation's Armed Forces and working to defend America and advance peace and freedom. We are grateful for their sacrifice and for the military families that support them. This month, we celebrate the many ways women strengthen and enrich America.
