I realize that what I am asking is that not only the Executive
Branch in Washington but even this Congress will have to change
by giving up some of its power.
1. Change is hard.
(1) But without change there can be no progress.
(2) And for each of us the question must be, not
"Will change cause me inconvenience?" but
"Will change bring the country progress?"
2. Giving up power is hard.
(1) But I would urge all of you, as leaders of this
country, to remember that the truly revered
leaders in world history are those who gave power
to people, not those who took it away.
/
3. As we consider these reforms we will be acting,
not for the next two years or the next ten years,
but for the next hundred years.
(1) So let us approach these six great goals with
a sense, not only of this moment in history,
but also of history itself.
