OBAMA SPEECHES
[Hello North Carolina]./And now I calm devil/ Metaphor: see dictionary definition below. Possible translation is: And now I calm your (or my?) destructive emotions.

I am so excited to be back in Raleigh, to [be back in North Carol]ina./I come to guide you/

It is not only [great to be back in Raleigh], it is also nice to get out of Washington./Allow the gab, it was guilt./

I want to thank your own [Governor]./They've got a bug/

I want to thank Steven Mayors, the [??? high school] principal./Folks there I know/

Now there's a lot of [misinformation] about the recovery act or the stimulus, whatever you want to call it, so let me just lay out the facts because I think some folks are confused./I've been ashamed of my sin/

They're saying we should broken ground on all our highway projects on the first day, Well that's impossible. Especially because I wanted to be sure we did our homework and invested our tax dollars only in those [projects that actually] created jobs and jump started the economy./You'll shatter, see doubt/

I mean that's the biggest challe€nge we have right now. People sort of generally have [scepticism about Washington] and I, look I understand that. That's why I ran for President cos I was sceptical about what was happening./Let me show album, this is hex/ (or hexxed?) Metaphor: see dictionary definition below. Possible translation is: Let me show the past, the memories of where we have been.

Even as we worked to address the crisis in our banking sector, and our housing [market and our] auto industry, and by the way there was a flu that came by during that process./And they come/

Now let me just say this about banks. I know it doesn't seem fair to [many Americans to use] tax dollars to stabilize banks that took reckless risks and helped cause this problem in the first place./Seize (or sees?) the crime in em/

We also took steps to help a struggling auto industry emerge from a crisis largely of its own making, again some folks thought [why are we doing that]. There was a strong argument to let General Motors and Chrysler go under./I know you well/

So, just remember of somebody asks you about [the stimulus or] the recovery, one third of it is in your pocket in tax cuts, one third of it is unemployment insurance relief, help on cobra and making sure that states don't have to make cuts that would make things worse./But so we listen/

We decided that the last third should be for short term and long term investments that are putting people back to work and building a strong economy for the future, [and I want you to know], this money is not being wasted. We're seeing the results of these investments here in Raleigh and across North Carolina./Warned and we don't want it/

Because the truth is we have a system today that [works well for the ins]urance industry but it doesn't always work well for you./Clear the foul scroll (or maybe screw?)/ Metaphor: see dictionary definition below. Possible translation is: Clear this very tight and deep dysfunctional behavioural pattern.

No longer will insurance companies be allowed to drop or water down coverage for someone who has [become seriously ill], that's not right, its not fair./Are you serious, mug/

Many of you have been denied insurance [or heard someone] who has been denied insurance because they had a pre-existing condition. That will no longer be allowed. /I must still hope/

That plan doesn't [sound too good]. That's the health care system we have right now. So we can either continue with that approach or we can chose another approach, one that will gradually bring costs down./It was nice/

The first is projected to double your health cares costs over the next decade, make millions more Americans uninsured, bankrupt state and federal governments and allow insurance [companies to run rough shot] over consumers. That's one option. That's called the status quo./The show lowered, see the bugs/

You remember I said two thirds of this can be paid for [though savings in the system al]ready. If we're going to cover everybody then we still got to pay for that one third./I'm assisting, listen to the answers/

Medicare and the VA are both government run health care programs that have very high satisfaction rates, generally, if you look at [surveys] /they have actually very high satisfaction rates./See a verse Metaphor: see dictionary definition below. Possible translation is: I fully believe in this statement I am making down at the level of my soul.

But those are the kind things that can be changed. Now your broader [question may just] be, I don't have confidence in government./So damn the shock/ Metaphor: see dictionary definition below. Possible translation is: Get rid of this trauma.

When I took office in January I asked to receive ten letters, to see ten letters from people across the country every day. They're just selected by the mail woman. We get about 40,000 letters a day. [They send me] about ten a day./They miss your dead/

Here in North Carolina, you know this isn't about politics, it's about people's lives, it's about people's [businesses], it's about the future. I want our children, our grandchildren to look back and say this is when we decided to take the politics out of it./This is it/

2/ Press Conference with Iraqi Prime Minister

I am especially pleased that he intends to visit Arlington [National Cemetery]. That hallowed ground is the final resting place for so many young Americans who have paid the ultimate price to help forge this hard earned progress./Here is the mess, won't shame it/

The United States and Iraq have known difficult times together, now both of us agree that the bonds forged between Americans and Iraqis in war can pave [the way for progr]ess that can be forged in peace./Iraq will fail/

Substantial progress has been made since Prime Minister Maliki's first visit to Washington in 2006 and since the Prime Minister and I [had a chance to sit] down together in Baghdad./This is safe today/

Ultimately we are going to be able to fulfil our commitment to pull out our troops entirely and interact with Iraq as the full [sovereign country] that it is./You f----- your boss/

As I said before, we seek no bases in Iraq [nor do we make] any claim on Iraq's territory or resources./Damn you alone/

It doesn't mean that there aren't still dangers in Iraq [and obviously we've seen] that in some circumstances those who want to sow sectarian division inside of Iraq are going to still resort to the killing of innocents./Miss you, we'll sit on it/

3/ At a rally in New Jersey

Governor Cody is the house. I want to thank the abundant life [church choir for the music]./Bring the foul jerk (church?)/

If you talk to your neighbours and your [friends and your co-work]ers. You call your member of Congress and your Senators. If you re-elect John Corzine, if you work hard. /Go walk on your mouth/

He hasn't avoided doing what's hard. [This isn't someb]ody who's here because of some special interest or political machine./Now must live it/

I want you to know I'm proud to stand with a man who wakes up every day thinking about your future [and the future] of Jersey and that's your Governor, John Corzine. /There's grief in that/

Jersey, I want you to know that's not a [future that I accept], that's not a future that John Corzine accepts, that's not a future that you accept./Lets get out of the grief/

We've always been willing to take great chances and reach for new horizons and [remake the world ar]ound us and that's what we must do again./The Whirl world will damn you/ Metaphor: see dictionary definition below. Possible translation is: The energy in the physical world will cause you harm.

Barack Obama & Larry Sinclair: Cocaine, Sex, Lies & Murder?
By Joy Tiz Tuesday, August 4, 2009


I can’t get a bead on Larry Sinclair. I’ve read his book, Barack Obama & Larry Sinclair: Cocaine, Sex, Lies & Murder? I’ve watched his videos on YouTube. My normally dependable women’s intuition is not sending me conclusive cues about Sinclair’s veracity.On the other hand, I have no question about Barack Obama’s mendacity.Sinclair is conspicuously candid about his ignominious narrative.He conceded his copious incarcerations early on.Sinclair has been in and out of jail on assorted charges of bamboozlement—including passing bad checks; about which he has been forthright.The president, however, has yet to release his college records, medical records, law school records, Illinois State Bar application, early school records, his passport or his birth certificate.

It is plausible that Sinclair suffers from some form of psychological disorder. That alone does not make him a liar, nor does it mean he is delusional.In his book, Sinclair cites times spent in custody being denied his medications.I would conjecture that some of his medications were for a psychological condition.If that was the case, the anxiety about his meds could suggest he is a patient who is intending to be well and is being medically managed. We can’t know for certain.But we have far more knowledge about Sinclair’s past than we do about Obama’s. Sinclair asserts that he met Obama twice in 1999.Their rendezvous was orchestrated by limo driver, Jagir Multani.Sinclair avers that Multani may have been in the United States illegally. Sinclair alleges that Obama smoked crack cocaine and directed Sinclair to administer a Lewinsky—which Sinclair obliged. According to Sinclair, the following day Obama materialized at Sinclair’s hotel to solicit supplementary Lewinskyization.That was the entirety of their affair, per Sinclair.Expecting to be serviced with no impulse to reciprocate is certainly consistent with Obama’s consummate narcissism. Sinclair has made capacious efforts to get his story out and his narrative has been unchanging. It would seem the sole witness who could corroborate the limo story would be the missing Multani.There is a plethora of grounds on which to discount Sinclair’s chronicle of events. As a witness, he would be facilely impeached. But he is manifestly more frank about his life story than Obama has been. As with the birth certificate matter, Obama’s lack of candor cannot but lead to supposition.

If Obama habitually enjoyed these sorts of trysts, we would presume others witnesses would surface. To date, no one else has gone public with comparable reports. Maybe the late Donald Young, choir director at Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago could have confirmed that Obama didn’t indulge in this type of conduct. Sadly, Young was murdered on December 23, 2007. The forty-seven-year old choirmaster had attended Obama’s church since the age of twelve.Obama has confessed to using illegal drugs his younger days (Dreams, Pg. 93). Much of Dreams is unadulterated fabrication, thus, we have no way of knowing how profligate Obama’s drug abuse was, nor has he released his medical records. John McCain made public more than a thousand pages of medical records during the 2008 campaign. Obama produced a letter from his physician pronouncing the candidate in excellent health.Doctors routinely query their patients about the use of alcohol, tobacco and drugs, both legal and otherwise. They customarily infer that their patients are under-reporting.Non-Obamanutz should find Sinclair’s book a worthy read.Though I could have lived without yet another detailed description of a president’s private parts.Nature abhors a vacuum. The dearth of fundamental details about most of Obama’s life, leads to supposition.Some of it will be cogent, some of it outlandish. Alternatively, Obama could simply liberate his records and show us who he really is.

Larry Sinclair, Obama, cocaine, gay sex, November 1999, Chicago, Washington DC, Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, MSM wake up, Sinclair’s story May 29, 2008

I have been following and reporting on the Larry Sinclair allegations of drug use and gay sex with Obama in November 1999. My initial skepticism led to my indepth investigation of not just Sinclair’s allegations but also Obama’s past actions and associations. The more I examined Obama, the more credible Larry Sinclair’s allegations have become.So, you are still a skeptic? Well, Sinclair is in Washington DC for interviews, to find out why the DNC has ignored him and some associated with the DNC have attacked him, and to visit the FBI in regard to death threats he has received. Sinclair is persistent and sincere in his crusade to reveal the truth about Obama.When I first began evaluating Sinclair’s claims, I went to the Official Illinois Senate records for November 1999. Sinclair was in Chicago from November 3 to November 8, 1999. Obama was absent from the Senate on November 4, 1999. The Senate did not reconvene until November 16, 1999. It turns out that Obama was at least in Chicago by November 8, 1999. Obama was at Northwestern Law School for a speech on November 8. That puts Obama and Sinclair in Chicago at the same time.Still not convinced? Several months ago I discovered that a former Chicago restaurant owner and chef heard persistent rumors from the gay community that Obama was on the down low. I am in regular contact with this person, who happens to be very intelligent and articulate.

Still not convinced? Reverend James Manning stated in a video and 2 interviews that Obama and Jeremiah Wright are closet homosexuals. He claims to have solid proof. Reverend Manning has stated that his further announcement and proof will be forthcoming soon.Larry Sinclair has contacted many major players in the MSM and has offered to answer any questions. Sinclair will be interviewed tonight by Jeff Rense and there is reason to believe he will be interviewed by a network soon.Many in the public have only made a cursory examination of the claim by Sinclair and have dismissed the allegations after reading the many attempts at discrediting him. There has been a mass effort to discredit Larry Sinclair. If you are in the MSM, you had better wake up.

5TH LD: M6.6 quake jolts Shizuoka Pref., no major damage reported+
Aug 10 06:28 PM US/Eastern


TOKYO, Aug. 11 (AP) - (Kyodo)—(EDS: ADDING DETAILS)
An earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 6.6 shook Shizuoka Prefecture in central Japan and its vicinity, including the Tokyo metropolitan area, early Tuesday morning, with no immediate reports of major damage or serious injuries. Some minor tsunami tidal waves were observed in the prefecture following the 5:07 a.m. quake, which originated about 20 kilometers under the surface of the sea in Suruga Bay, the Japan Meteorological Agency said. Two nuclear reactors at the Hamaoka nuclear plant in Omaezaki, Shizuoka, were suspended automatically, but there was no radioactive leakage. As of 6:30 a.m., no deaths or serious injuries had been reported, according to the National Police Agency. Prime Minister Taro Aso instructed members of a task force set up at the prime minister's office to collect information on the quake, while Chief Cabinet Secretary Takeo Kawamura told reporters the quake does not seem to be related to a massive quake that is feared to hit the Tokai region of central Japan in the future -- the so-called Tokai quake.Local police in Shizuoka said they have received reports about landslides, slight injuries, a fire and a rockfall, while some people were brought to hospitals in Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture. The quake measured lower 6 on the Japanese seismic scale of 7 at several points in Shizuoka, including Izu, Yaizu, Omaezaki and Makinohara, according to the agency. Central Japan Railway Co. has suspended operations of Shinkansen bullet trains and local trains in Shizuoka and parts of Nagano Prefecture, and some parts of the Tomei Expressway have been closed. The surface of the road was lifted up at the Kikugawa interchange on the expressway in Shizuoka Prefecture, according to the local police.In Omaezaki, water pipes burst at several points and water supplies have been cut off, according to the municipal government.The quake came after an earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 6.9 jolted Tokyo and wide areas of eastern Japan on Sunday.

August 10, 2009 - 8:24 PM Magnitude 7.6 quake hits off India's Andaman Islands

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A massive magnitude 7.6 quake struck in the Indian Ocean off India's Andaman Islands, triggering a tsunami watch for India, Myanmar, Indonesia, Thailand and Bangladesh, the U.S. Geological Survey reported on Monday.The USGS said the quake, initially reported as a magnitude 7.7, was 20.6 miles (33 km) deep and was centered 160 miles (260 km) north of Port Blair in the Andaman Islands.The Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre issued a tsunami watch for the region.(Reporting by Sandra Maler, editing by Doina Chiacu)

Earth Times - Tsunami warning follows 7.6 magnitude quake in Indian Ocean
Posted : Mon, 10 Aug 2009 20:41:46 GMT Author : DPA


Washington - An earthquake measuring 7.6 on the Richter Scale struck in the Indian Ocean, prompting the US government to issue a tsunami warning Monday for South and Southeast Asia. The earthquake was centred about 262 kilometres north of India's Andaman Islands and took place at 1956 GMT, the US Geological Survey in Denver, Colorado, reported. It struck in the early Tuesday morning hours local time. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre in Hawaii issued a tsunami watch for Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, Myanmar and Thailand, saying the earthquake was strong enough to produce a tsunami along coastlines within 1,000 kilometres of its epicentre.

Obama's first North American summit aims at swine flu plan, but makes little headway elsewhere MARK S. SMITH Associated Press Writer 7:43 AM CDT, August 10, 2009

GUADALAJARA, Mexico (AP) —President Barack Obama's first North American summit is proving it's a lot easier to agree on battling a killer flu virus than to untangle knotty disputes over cross-border trade.Obama flew into Mexico's second-largest city late Sunday for a two-day speed summit with Mexican President Felipe Calderon and Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper — a meeting whose main accomplishment will likely be a joint plan of attack for swine flu.But there was little chance of any breakthrough in long-running squabbles over Mexican trucks, or U.S. Buy American rules or how best to curb the deadly flow of drugs across the frontier.The so called Three Amigos summit began over dinner at an ornate cultural center here and was to conclude a mere 17 hours later at a joint news conference.In April, when Obama visited Mexico City, the first swine flu cases were just surfacing. Now, it's a global epidemic that's sickened more than 43,000 people in the United States and is blamed for 300 deaths. The toll in Mexico is at least 15,000 cases and 141 deaths; in Canada it's 10,000 cases and 50 deaths.While the H1N1 virus is in a summer lull in the Northern Hemisphere, it's expected to roar back in the fall. Public health officials are readying medicines and public education campaigns, hoping to curb the flu without disrupting vital cross-border trade and tourism.

We're going to do everything possible to minimize the impact,said John Brennan, Obama's top White House adviser on homeland security. There is going to be a joint statement on how the three countries ... tackle the H1N1 challenge.On other subjects, the summit was more a chance to catch up than make progress.Started by George W. Bush in 2005 near his Texas ranch, the North American Leaders Summit has become an annual showcase on trade. Canada is the top U.S. trading partner, while Mexico is number three.This year, as the U.S. economy struggles out of a crippling recession, the leaders met at the Institutos Cabanas, a 19th-century home for poor children that's now a sprawling art museum with 23 arched courtyards filled with grapefruit and mango trees.Streets around the complex were sealed off by heavily armed federal agents and police in riot gear.The security stemmed in part from the drug wars that have raged in Mexico since Calderon deployed the army to crush the country's notorious cartels. Some 11,000 people have perished in the conflict.In a separate meeting with Calderon, Obama voiced strong support of the offensive, but Calderon expressed concerns about delays in the latest installment of U.S. aid under the $1.4 billion Merida Initiative, a U.S. official reported. The money's been held up by allegations of human rights violations.Calderon also pressed Obama on allowing Mexican trucks access to U.S. highways, said the official, who briefed reporters on condition of anonymity to describe the private talk. Mexicans are convinced the U.S. limits are less about safety — their stated reason — than protecting American hauling companies from competition under the NAFTA free trade accord.Also unlikely to be resolved at the summit were objections from both north and south of the border about the Buy American provisions in Obama's stimulus plan.And immigration remained a sore spot. While Obama has said he'd like to start crafting an overhaul that legalizes millions of Mexican immigrants, there's little chance of Congress acting this year, since even top administration priorities like health care and climate policy are moving slowly amid heated partisan debate.

Obama talks drugs, trade, immigration on Mexico visit.AUG 10,09

GUADALAJARA, Mexico (CNN) -- President Obama said Monday the United States remains Mexico's partner in the fight against drug cartels, despite some calls in the United States to delay counter-narcotics aid because of alleged human rights violations by Mexican soldiers.Prime Minister Stephen Harper of Canada, from left, and Mexican President Felipe Calderon walk with Obama.2 of 2 Mexican President Felipe Calderon reaffirmed his commitment to transparency and human rights in his offensive against the cartels, Obama said.Some $100 million in anti-drug aid, known as the Merida Initiative, could be delayed because of concerns about human rights violations, it was reported last week.We have been very supportive of the Merida Initiative, and we remain supportive,Obama said.Obama also said the United States would work to reduce demand for drugs and stop the illegal flow of weapons south to Mexico.The remarks came at a summit of North American leaders in Guadalajara, Mexico.Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper also expressed support for Mexico's strategy, saying that the drug cartels were a problem shared by all three countries.Turning to immigration, Obama said he is committed to fix the broken immigration system.The three North American countries depend on their borders being safe and secure, Obama said, adding that he supports orderly and legal migration, while respecting the American tradition of welcoming immigrants.

He also responded to critics who say that the United States has not been forceful enough in demanding the return of ousted Honduran President Jose Manuel Zelaya to power, calling them hypocritical.The same critics who say that the United States has not intervened enough in Honduras, are the same people who say that we're always intervening and that Yankees need to get out of Latin America. You can't have it both ways,Obama said.We have been very clear in our belief that President Zelaya was removed from office illegally, that it was a coup, and that he should return,Obama said.The United Nations and Organization of American States, including the United States, have called for Zelaya's return, but more than one month later, the interim government of Roberto Micheletti remains firm and talks between the two sides have so far been unsuccessful.Harper agreed with Obama's stance.The United States has very clearly stated its position while letting a multilateral process take the lead, he said.That's precisely what we want to see from the United States,Harper said.Turning to trade, Obama said a Buy American provision in his economic stimulus plan had little effect so far on the multibillion-dollar trade partnership with Canada.Obama told journalists that Harper has raised the issue every time they have met.Harper has complained the Buy American provision is protectionist and could harm trade relations between the closely linked North American economies.This in no way this has endangered the billions of dollars of trade taking place between our two countries, Obama said, standing beside Harper and Calderon at a final news conference.

Harper responded to the same question by saying the leaders had a good discussion on the issue, and their respective trade ministers also were talking about it.Canada is the top trade partner of the United States, with cross-border commerce worth more than $1 billion a day.The $787-billion stimulus package enacted in February included a provision that only American goods be used in stimulus projects. It also stipulated that the measure would not override existing U.S. trade treaties such as the North American Free Trade Agreement.Obama also talked about comparisons between the U.S. and Canadian health care systems, saying Canada's government-run health care model won't work in the United States. We've got to develop a uniquely American approach to this problem,he said.Opponents of health care legislation in the U.S. House and Senate say it will lead to a single-payer system like the government-run program in Canada, with some warning the Canadian system means restrictions on treatments and long delays.Obama noted the U.S. system is based on employers providing health insurance for most Americans. Throwing that out would be too radical an overhaul, he said.However, he said he expects opponents of health care legislation to continue to make what he called the misleading comparison between proposed U.S. legislation and Canada's system.I suspect that you Canadians are going to continue to get dragged into the debate,he said.

THE WHITE HOUSE Office of the Press Secretary For Immediate Release August 10, 2009
PRESS CONFERENCE BY PRESIDENT OBAMA,PRESIDENT CALDERÓN OF MEXICO,AND PRIME MINISTER HARPER OF CANADA,Cabanas Cultural Center,Guadalajara, Mexico 11:15 A.M. (Local)


PRESIDENT CALDERÓN: (As translated.) Ladies and gentlemen, representatives of the media, national as well as international. The leaders from the United States, Canada and Mexico have completed two fruitful workdays for the benefit for our co-nationals. The leaders for North America share the vision and insight for the regional community that is safe, secure, and competitive, that can face successfully the challenges of the present and the future.We coincide in pointing out that in an age marked by globalization, the challenges can only be overcome jointly -- thus the importance of keeping the dialogue, trust and cooperation amongst our three countries. Americans, Canadians, and Mexicans have reiterated that the values upon which our societies are founded are democracy, freedom, justice, and respect of human rights.Our three nations have reiterated our decision to combat in the struggle of the transnational organized crime in order to bring about more security to our communities. The struggles we have led in Mexico for the rule of law and the security of our Mexican people forces us to stop the traffic of weapons and of money that go from north to south that strengthen and nourish organized crime gangs. The notion of responsibility, co-responsibility, accountability, the exchange of information, and the building of our institutions should be the guidelines for our cooperation.

In this international crisis context, the three states that make up the North American region have to take the leadership and foster and boost the necessary measures to recover our economic growth. In our task we have had to implement countercyclical measures in the three countries that have been put into action. And in a coordinated manner we can stabilize our economies and bring about trustworthiness and certainty in regard to the future of the global economy.It is also necessary to build our financial international institutions such as the World Fund, the International Monetary Fund, which are fundamental to guarantee the flow of the financial resources. In the case of Latin America, the support that will enable us to recapitalize the Inter-American Bank for Development will be the best action for help and commitment in regard to the poor countries in the region on behalf of the North American countries.I am certain that at the next G20 meeting that shall take place in Pittsburgh, United States, will be a great opportunity to build the necessary agreements to reform these organizations that are key in the recovery of our economies and our reprisal. I thank President Obama for fostering this meeting in Pittsburgh.And likewise, the United States, Mexico and Canada have tools to restart our agreements. We recognize that it is essential to abide by NAFTA and to resolve the pending topics that impede us to reach greater regional competitiveness. And it is important to see how we are going to fulfill our commitments in regard to the environment and in regard to our labor domains linked to the commercial agreements, the trade agreements we have amongst our countries. I am convinced that only in tapping the advantages offered by our economic complementary -- (inaudible) -- in terms of interest -- labor, technology, and natural resources -- we shall be successful in a world that is ferociously competing.

At this summit we have reached important agreements such as boosting the standardization of the regulations and certifications of our products, as well as the sanitary procedures and -- fight for sanitary procedures that can be simplified, as well as increasing without any losses, increasing the economic competitiveness of our region. The objective is to have secure and efficient conditions. These procedures to be implemented with no bureaucratic or far-fetched red tape in our offices. And this will diminish, decrease the prices for the staples and food, and improve the competitiveness of our economies.On the other hand, on the bilateral aspect, Mexico and the United States will launch modernization initiatives at our common borders with determined terms in order to promote the regional competitiveness actions. And Mexico commends and is pleased to say that we're going to inaugurate the first international bridge that is currently being built after so many years between the United States and Mexico.The United States, Mexico and Canada have coincided in the importance to face the repercussions of pragmatic change. The cost is very high but the price we shall pay for lack of action is not to be calculated -- cannot possibly be calculated. We coincide that we have to foster the global agreement in Copenhagen and the instrumentation for a green fund that will finance and support mitigation and adaptation actions in regard to the global -- (inaudible) -- of climatic change. We need to make progress in regard to clean energies and technologies as well as the development of our carbon market in order to have a regional market.North America has to be recognized as a responsible region and must set the example for the world in terms of environmental cooperation amongst countries with different levels of development.Cooperation and solidarity amongst the North American region has to prevail at all moments, and thus it was demonstrated last April when our three countries faced the emergence of this new virus, H1N1. And working together, we showed our highest expressions of responsibility, accountability and transparency. And because we alerted timely the other regions in the hemisphere, they had the opportunity to implement preventive measures in order to abate the propagation of the virus and to avoid as far as possible its lethal repercussions.H1N1, as we know, will be back this winter. We are getting prepared, all three countries, to face in a responsible manner this contingency and abate its impact for our people.First Minister, Mr. President, ladies and gentlemen, at this summit the representatives of the United States, Canada, and Mexico have held an open and straightforward dialogue as countries that share values, that were to consolidate the right conditions for development and that have been able to found a successful society based on brotherly and responsible relationships. We believe in a North American region that is united, that is prosperous and wealthy, that is able to build a better future for the forthcoming generations.And I want to give the floor now to Mr. Stephen Harper, Prime Minister for Canada.

PRIME MINISTER HARPER: (As translated.) Thank you, President Calderón. Thank you to the Mexican people for their hospitality, for their warmth. And thank you to President Obama for your straightforward exchanges -- so positive on our priorities. These -- (inaudible) -- consisted mainly of the economy, health, and security in the North American region, and focused on energy, environment, and climate change in regard to the North American economy and the global economy.And thanks to the solid results in Canada with regard to financial regulations and fiscal actions -- have been very positive contribution. It's been important that since we are getting close to the G20 meeting, we have to underscore that countries have to go on with the reinforcement of their financial national/international institutions and to take the timely financial measures and to keep the markets open and to resist against protectionism.In regard to the health domain and in regard to the influenza H1N1, it has been a threat, but the excellent cooperation amongst our three countries has helped to restrain the repercussions of this outbreak and we shall focus on that even more.In regard to security, Canada recognizes the courageous commitment taken by President Calderón to combat organized crime in Mexico. We commend him for his efforts and his actions have touched all of us.And we are still making the greatest efforts in Canada to find a pacific resolution for Honduras. We have to restate the democratic government and the rule of law in that country.In regard to the energy and climate change, and since our economies are integrated, we have discussed about the importance of working together on a North American focus against climate change and in order to assure and guarantee a new international covenant that is efficient and truly global.And to finish, Canada, the United States and Mexico are good neighbors and good friends, too. As sovereign countries in a modern world, we are independent and interdependent both, and I can't wait to see you at the G20 and to welcome you at the summit in Canada for the Leaders of North America next year.(The Prime Minister repeats his remarks in English.) Thanks also to President Obama for candid and constructive exchanges on our priority issues. Those priority issues fitted into three broad categories: the economy; North American health and security; and energy, environment and climate change.On the economy, because of Canada's strong record of financial regulation and fiscal management, we provided an informed voice at these meetings. As we approach the G20 summit in Pittsburgh, we continue to emphasize the countries must strengthen financial regulations and institutions, continue to implement timely economic stimulus, and maintain open markets to resist protectionism.

On North America health and security, we talked about our shared and effective response thus far to H1N1. It is a cross-border threat to all of us. The excellent cooperation among these -- our three countries was effectiveness in helping to manage the initial outbreak, and we will continue our cooperative efforts.On security, Canada recognizes the courageous commitment of President Calderón in taking on the drug traffickers. We are supporting these efforts, as it is a shared challenge for all of us in North America.Also, on international peace and security, Canada supports ongoing OAS efforts to find a peaceful resolution to the political crisis in Honduras. We must restore both democratic governance and the rule of law.Sorry, excuse me, I just about missed energy and climate change. Given the integrated nature of our economies, we did talk at some length about the importance of working together on a North American approach to climate change, and also on doing our best to ensure that out of Copenhagen and going forward we reach an effective and genuinely international new world protocol on greenhouse gas emissions.To conclude, Canada, the United States and Mexico are good neighbors and also good friends. As sovereign countries in a modern world, we are both independent and interdependent. I'm looking forward to seeing both President Calderón and President Obama at the G20; looking forward to hosting both of you next year at Canada's summit in our great country.

Thank you.

PRESIDENT OBAMA: Good morning and buenos dias. I want to thank my great friend, President Calderón, for his hospitality and for hosting us at this important summit, as well as my good friend, Prime Minister Stephen Harper. And I want to thank the people of Guadalajara and Mexico for the incredible warmth they've shown us on this, my second trip to Mexico as President.Here in Mexico, the word is juntos. And in Canada it's ensemble.But no matter how you say it, we come here today --three nations, one continent -- because of the challenges and opportunities that we will be facing together.Like our magnificent surroundings today, this city could not be a more fitting venue. Here in Guadalajara we see all the richness of Mexico's heritage -- its arts, its architecture, its vitality and its culture. And we also see all the possibilities of Mexico's future -- the innovation, high-tech industries and entrepreneurship that makes this one of our hemisphere's most dynamic cities.Here in Guadalajara we also see our continent coming together -- Mexicans, Canadians, Americans -- as tourists, as neighbors, educators and business partners; each bringing their unique traditions; each bound by mutual respect. Indeed, in the 21st century, North America is defined not simply by our borders, but by our bonds. And that is the spirit that defined the very productive summit that we had here today.

First, we agreed that we had to work together to restore our common prosperity. The global recession has cost jobs and hurt families from Toronto to Toledo to Tijuana. So we renew our commitment to work together in Ottawa, Washington and Mexico City. Building on our progress at the G8 and G20 summits, we agreed to continue to take aggressive, coordinated action to restore economic growth and create jobs for our workers, including workers in the North American auto industry.Because so much of our common prosperity and millions of jobs depend on trade that flows across our borders -- billions of dollars worth of trade every day -- we reaffirmed the need to reject protectionism. We recommitted ourselves to the infrastructure investments, the common-sense regulations and intellectual property protections upon which trade thrives. We are among each other's largest trading partners. As we work together towards lasting prosperity, we need to expand that trade, not restrict it.I would note that our common prosperity also depends on orderly, legal migration. All three of our nations have been enriched by our ties of family and community. I think of my own brother-in law who's Canadian. I think of the many Mexican Americans from Jalisco who found a home in Los Angeles and Texas and in my hometown of Chicago. At the same time, Americans, Mexicans and Canadians all expect their borders to be safe and secure. And that is why my administration will continue to work to fix America's broken immigration system in a way that is in keeping with our traditions of being both a nation of laws and a nation of immigrants.And because our future prosperity also depends on clean energy economies, we built on our bilateral efforts to invest in renewable energy and green jobs, and we recommitted ourselves to the historic goals announced last month in Italy. Nations like the United States and Canada will take the lead by reducing emissions by 80 percent by 2050, and we will work with other nations to cut global emissions in half. Indeed, we made progress toward the concrete goals that will be negotiated at the Copenhagen climate change summit in December. And I again want to commend Mexico for its leadership in curbing greenhouse gas emissions and President Calderón for his innovative proposals to help developing countries build clean, sustainable economies.Second, we reiterated our abiding commitment to the common safety and security of our people. In response to the H1N1 pandemic, our three governments have worked closely, collaboratively and responsibly. With science as our guide, we resolved to continue taking all necessary preparations and precautions to prepare for the upcoming flu season and protect the health of our people. And this challenge transcends borders and so must our response.We also resolved to continue confronting the urgent threat to our common security from the drug cartels that are causing so much violence and death in our countries. As I've said on many occasions, I heartily commend President Calderón and his government for their determination and courage in taking on these cartels. And the President reaffirmed his government's commitment to transparency, accountability and human rights as they wage this difficult but necessary fight.The United States will remain a full partner in this effort. We will work to make sure Mexico has the support it needs to dismantle and defeat the cartels. And the United States will also meet its responsibilities by continuing our efforts to reduce the demand for drugs and continuing to strengthening the security of our shared border -- not only to protect the American people, but to stem the illegal southbound flow of American guns and cash that helps fuel this extraordinary violence.

Third, we reaffirmed our abiding commitment to our common values, including peace, democracy and human rights. And in particular, we discussed the coup in Honduras. As has been mentioned, our three nations stand united on this issue. President Zelaya remains the democratically elected president. For the sake of the Honduran people, democratic and constitutional order must be restored. And we will continue to work with others, especially the Organization of American States, to achieve a negotiated and peaceful solution.And finally, we pledged to continue all these efforts. I look forward to welcoming Prime Minister Harper to Washington in September. I look forward to welcoming both my friends at the G20 Summit in Pittsburgh, where I hope to reciprocate President Calderón's hospitality.Our progress today is a reminder that no nation can meet the challenges of our time on our own. Our common aspirations can only be achieved if we work together. And that's what the nearly half-billion people in North America expect from us, so that's what we will do.

Thank you very much.

PRESIDENT CALDERÓN: (As translated.) Let's move on to the question-and-answer session. This will be one question per country, and we'll start off with Mexico.

Q Good afternoon. President Obama, there are certain questions about violation of human rights here in Mexico and all these problems fighting drug trafficking. Are you going to certify Mexico? And how can we move forward with the Merida Initiative? We've also been concerned about any attempt against Felipe Calderón's life. We know about certain threats and insecurity that prevails. This of course is certainly related to your country. We're concerned about the visa problem, too. What comments would you have regarding all these questions?

PRESIDENT OBAMA: I didn't get a translation on that one. (Laughter.) So it sounded like a very good question. (Laughter.) Here, I think it's coming. Go ahead.

Q We're concerned about the violation of human rights here in Mexico as we fight against drug trafficking. What are your concerns regarding this? And we'd also like to know if Mexico is going to be certified, and if you will help and apply resources for the Merida Initiative? We've also heard about some attempts against the life of President Felipe Hinojosa Calderón. Do you have any knowledge of this? And we're also concerned about national security, we're concerned about visas, et cetera. We'd like to know, is there any possibility that you might turn this around, that we might not have any limit on visas?

PRESIDENT OBAMA: Well, I'll just address the first two questions that seem to apply to the United States. Number one, we have been very supportive of the Merida Initiative and we will continue to be supportive. And we have already seen resources transferred, equipment transferred, in order to help President Calderón in what is a very courageous effort to deal with a drug cartel -- set of drug cartels that are not only resulting in extraordinary violence to the people of Mexico, but are also undermining institutions like the police and the judiciary system that, unless stopped, will be very damaging to the country.Now, with respect to the conduct of this battle against the cartels, I have great confidence in President Calderón's administration applying the law enforcement techniques that are necessary to curb the power of the cartels, but doing so in a way that's consistent with human rights. And we discussed this in our bilateral meeting and I am confident that as the national police are trained, as the coordination between the military and local police officials is improved, there is going to be increased transparency and accountability and that human rights will be observed.The biggest, by far, violators of human rights right now are the cartels themselves that are kidnapping people and extorting people and encouraging corruption in these regions. That's what needs to be stopped. That's what President Calderón is committed to doing, and that's what I'm committed to helping President Calderón accomplish as long as he is President of Mexico.

PRIME MINISTER HARPER: On the question of visas, it's important to understand the imposition of visa is due to one thing and one thing only, and that is the dramatic rise we have seen over the last few years, and this year in particular, in the number of bogus refugee claims being made from Mexico into Canada.It's important to understand that this decision, first of all, has nothing to do with the actions of the Mexican government. The Mexican government has cooperated with us in efforts to stem this particular problem, to limit this particular problem. It continues to work with us in ways we might reverse it.But the underlying problem, as I said to President Calderón and others, the underlying program -- problem is in the Canadian refugee laws. It is simply far too easy in Canada to make a bogus refugee claim as a way of entering the country. And we have to change that. It is unfair to those who are legitimate refugees. It is also unfair to the hundreds of thousands of people who are working through our immigration system to become immigrants to this country -- to our country.So as I say, we will continue to work with Mexican authorities to try and limit this problem. But in the absence of legislative change, it is very difficult for our governments to control this other than through the imposition of visa. It is the only tool available to us right now. So we need additional tools from our parliament to stem the flow of bogus refugee claimants and also to have additional tools to deal with this kind of problem.

PRESIDENT CALDERÓN: (As translated.) Let me address these three topics, which are very important to us. First of all, my government has absolute categorical commitment with human rights. The struggle, the battle, the fight against organized crime is precisely to preserve the human rights of the Mexican people -- right to safety; to security; to personal safety and integrity; and the right to have a safe family; the right to work without being really molested or disturbed -- the struggle for the security and safety of the Mexican people.Obviously we have a strong commitment to protect human rights of everybody, the victims and even of the criminals themselves. And this is how it has been, this is how it will continue to be, and this is how the federal police will act, the attorney generals and armed forces will act. In all of these cases, there has been a very scrupulous effort to try to protect human rights in all cases.And anyone who says the contrary certainly would have to prove this -- any case, just one case, where the proper authority has not acted in a correct way, that the competent authorities have not punished anyone who has abused their authority, whether they be police officers, whether they be soldiers, or anyone else. We have a clear commitment with human rights. We have met this commitment, and we will continue to do so -- not because of any money that might come or come through the Merida Initiative or what's said in the Congress; because we have the strong commitment to human rights. And I certainly in a personal sense for several decades now, I have always had this commitment.I have some details about what you have pointed out, but in any case, it certainly won't be the first or the last occasion on which we might hear something about an attempt against my personal -- about my life, my person. But once again, the governments can't stop -- (inaudible) -- we know that we are destroying their criminal organizations. We're hitting them hard. We're hitting at the heart of their organizations. We're making them back away. And they know that we're not only taking an initiative in the struggle against crime, but we are actually being able to protect and defend our country better as time goes by.

This is not a type of vengeance of getting back at anyone, but we want to make sure that Mexico is a safe place to live in, that we will be able to move forward in this. We're not just talking about this organization, but whether our basic objective is to provide security, safety for the Mexican people. This is something that Mexican people are entitled to; that their families and their children can go out into the streets, they can go out to play, they can go to school, they can make progress and to fulfill their aspirations; that Mexico be a free country, free of delinquency, free of violence; that Mexico will be a safe country. And in the struggle we're not going to be intimidated, nor are they going to put a stop to our efforts.Once again, I certainly hope that Mexico's society recognizes all of the efforts we're making along these lines -- the police force who have been victims of attempts and of cowardly acts by the criminals; all the efforts carried out by Mexican marines, by soldiers, and the different attorney generals, all of this, because we are committed to this ideal to have a safe Mexico, to have a safe country. And these are values that we believe in, and it's certainly stronger than any threat that could be made against us about any type whatsoever.So once again, we have had dialogues with Prime Minister Harper on several different occasions as we did on this occasion at the summit on the matter of visas for Mexican visitors. We've talked openly, frankly, and certainly Mexico, certainly, feels very bad about this decision, about this rejection, even though, of course, it is a privilege of the Canadian government to stipulate this. But it certainly gets in the way of a good relationship, of what Prime Minister Harper and I are doing to have good relations between our two countries. And the explanations that Prime Harper has mentioned, there certainly is a problem with bogus refugee claim problem, and this has led to an abuse of the system.

So we're going to try to work together to collaborate together. We're doing this here in Mexico to try to do away with the underlying causes of this abuse regarding the general system for receiving refugees in Canada.Once again, for me it's very clear that as the President of Mexico, that I certainly have the obligation of ensuring that a specific topic on the bilateral agenda not deter reaching our full potential of other matters on the agenda.And once again, here lies the great opportunity in this particular area of economic complementarities of the three countries' economies, and that this will take our whole region up to a higher state of competitiveness to the benefit of our people. These are the lines we've been working along, and I think we have been making great strides in this sense, and we certainly will continue to work along these lines in a frank and open way with Prime Minister Harper and President Obama.

Q Let me preface this by saying we only get one question each, so I will proceed to be longwinded. (Laughter.) It's actually a two-parter. And the first part is a question for the three leaders, primarily President Obama. And I'd appreciate it --

PRESIDENT CALDERÓN: Could you use the microphone?

Q And I would appreciate it if the Prime Minister, for the benefit of my Francophone colleagues, could answer in French, as well.

The Buy American caused considerable concern outside the United States. I am wondering what you discussed about "Buy American" at this meeting, and also what power you personally have to rescind this measure, and whether you intend to use that power.Now, on a not completely related topic, health care has been an issue of tremendous debate in your country, and Canadians have looked on with some fascination as our health care system has become a political football in your country. I'd like to ask Prime Minister Harper and President Obama whether there are elements of the Canadian health care system, particularly the public model, which are worth emulating.

PRESIDENT OBAMA: Well, first of all, with respect to the "Buy American" provisions, I want to assure you that your Prime Minister raises this with me every time we see each other. So that's important to note, that he is expressing I think his country's concerns.

I think it's also important to keep it in perspective that, in fact, we have not seen some sweeping steps toward protectionism. There was a very particular provision that was in our recovery package, our stimulus package. It did not extend beyond that. It was WTO-compliant. It was not something that I thought was necessary, but it was introduced at a time when we had a very severe economic situation and it was important for us to act quickly and not get bogged down in debates around this particular provision.Prime Minister Harper and I have discussed this and there may be mechanisms whereby states and local jurisdictions can work with the provinces to allow for cross-border procurement practices that expand the trading relationship. But I do think it's important to keep this in perspective. This in no way has endangered the billions of dollars of trade taking place between our two countries. It's not a general provision, but it was restricted to a very particular aspect of our recovery package.With respect to the health care debate, we are having a vigorous debate in the United States and I think that's a healthy thing. The reason it's necessary is because we are on a currently unsustainable path. We spend far more per person on health care than any nation on Earth. Our outcomes in terms of various measures of well-being don't rank us at the top. We're not doing better than a lot of other advanced developed countries that are spending much less per person.Individual families are being bankrupted because of the lack of insurance. We've got 46-47 million people without health insurance in our country. And for those who do have health insurance, they are always at risk of private insurers eliminating their insurance because of a preexisting condition or because they lose a job or they have changed jobs.So the final aspect of it is, is that our health care inflation is going up so rapidly that our federal budget simply can't sustain it -- nor can businesses that are increasingly having to make decisions whether they hire more workers or eliminate health care; whether they stop providing coverage or they force more costs on to their workers. So the whole system is not working well.

Now, how do we change it? When it's one-sixth of the U.S. economy, there are going to be a lot of opinions. And Congress has moved forward and we are closer to achieving a serious health reform package than we have been in the last 40 to 50 years. But there is going to continue to be a vigorous debate.I've said that the Canadian model works for Canada; it would not work for the United States -- in part simply because we've evolved differently. We have a employer-based system and a private-based health care system that stands side by side with Medicare and Medicaid and our Veterans Administration health care system. And so we've got to develop a uniquely American approach to this problem.This, by the way, is a problem that all countries are going to have to deal with at some level because if medical inflation continues at the pace that it's going, everybody's budgets are going to be put under severe strain.And so what we're trying to do is make sure that we've got a sensible plan that provides coverage for everybody; that continues the role of the private marketplace, but provides people who don't have health insurance or have fallen through the cracks in the private marketplace a realistic and meaningful option. And we've got to do it in a way that also changes our delivery system so that we're not engaged in the kind of wasteful, inefficient medical spending that is so costly to us.So I suspect that we're going to have continued vigorous debate. I suspect that you Canadians will continue to get dragged in by those who oppose reform, even though I've said nothing about Canadian health care reform. I don't find Canadians particularly scary, but I guess some of the opponents of reform think that they make a good boogeyman. I think that's a mistake. And I suspect that once we get into the fall and people look at the actual legislation that's being proposed, that more sensible and reasoned arguments will emerge, and we're going to get this passed.

Sorry to take so long on the question.

PRIME MINISTER HARPER: (As translated.) With respect to your first question, yesterday we discussed this problem. I'm very happy to recently see that it's an agreement among the provinces and the federation to have a common front with respect to this problem. There have been a lot of discussions among American and Canadian ministers, ministers of trade, and also our public officials. These talks will continue once I meet again with President Obama over the next couple of months.With respect to health care, the only thing I could say is the Canadians certainly support their own system, and the rest is really an American debate.And it's up to the provinces, for example, in Canada -- this whole thing about "Buy American", we had quite a bit of discussion on this, as President Obama has already mentioned, and I'm very glad to see that our provinces and the federal government have reached a recent agreement on this concern.And once again, all of the cross-border procurement process is interesting. I think when our trade ministers have gotten together -- the ministers are talking about this as well -- and President Obama and I will discuss this topic at future meetings.With respect to the debate on health care in the United States, as you well know, we as Canadians support our own system, but with respect to the rest of the question this is up to United States and once again we do have certain jurisdiction in the provinces.Ginger.

Q To President Obama, given the fight that you're having to wage for health care, I wonder if you can tell us what you think the prospects are for immigration reform, for comprehensive immigration reform, which you've said is your goal; and whether you think that the blows you're taking now on health care and that the Democrats are likely to take around the midterm elections will make it hard, if not impossible, to achieve comprehensive immigration reform in this term -- and what you've told President Calderón about that?

President Calderón, I'd like to hear a little bit about your thoughts on Honduras. There have been some in Latin America who have said that the United States has not acted strongly enough to return President Zelaya to power. And I wonder if you could talk a little bit about how you feel about what the United States should be doing or could be doing to restore democratic order in Honduras.And, Prime Minister Harper, a few months ago the Homeland Security Secretary of the United States went to Canada -- or at least aggravated Canadian sensibilities when she compared the Canadian border to the Mexican border. And I wonder what you think about that and how you feel about the United States using some of the enforcement strategies adopted on the southern border in the north. Thank you.

PRESIDENT OBAMA: That's all? (Laughter.)

Q That's all, Mr. President.

PRESIDENT OBAMA: Well, first of all, Ginger, I don't know if you're doing some prognosticating about the outcome of the midterm elections, which are over a year away. I anticipate we'll do just fine. And I think when all is said on health care reform, the American people are going to be glad that we acted to change an unsustainable system so that more people have coverage, we're bending the cost curve, and we're getting insurance reforms so that people don't get dropped because of preexisting conditions or other issues.So understand, though, I'm not acting based on short-term political calculations. I'm looking at what's best for the country long term. If I had been making short-term political calculations, I wouldn't be standing here as President, because nobody calculated that I could win the presidency.With respect to immigration reform, I continue to believe that is also in the long-term interests of the United States. We have a broken immigration system. Nobody denies it. And if we continue on a path we're on, we will continue to have tensions with our Mexican neighbors; we will continue to have people crossing the borders in a way that is dangerous for them, unfair for those who are applying legally to immigrate; we're going to continue to have employers who are exploiting workers because they're not within a legal system, and so oftentimes are receiving less than minimum wage, or don't have overtime, or being abused in other fashion. That's going to depress U.S. wages. It's causing ongoing tensions inside the United States. It's not fair and it's not right, and we're going to change it.Now, I've got a lot on my plate, and it's very important for us to sequence these big initiatives in a way where they don't all just crash at the same time. And what we've said is in the fall when we come back, we're going to complete health care reform. We still have to act on energy legislation that has passed the House, but the Senate, I'm sure, is going to have its own ideas about how it wants to approach it. We still have financial regulatory reform that has to get done because we don't want a situation in which irresponsible actions in the global financial markets can precipitate another crisis. That's a pretty big stack of bills.Fortunately, what we've been able to do is to begin meeting with both Democrats and Republicans from the House and the Senate. Secretary Napolitano is coordinating these discussions, and I would anticipate that before the year is out we will have draft legislation along with sponsors potentially in the House and the Senate who are ready to move this forward, and when we come back next year, that we should be in a position to start acting.

Now, am I going to be able to snap my fingers and get this done? No. This is going to be difficult; it's going to require bipartisan cooperation. There are going to be demagogues out there who try to suggest that any form of pathway for legalization for those who are already in the United States is unacceptable. And those are fights that I'd have to have if my poll numbers are at 70 or if my poll numbers are at 40. That's just the nature of the U.S. immigration debate.But ultimately, I think the American people want fairness. And we can create a system in which you have strong border security, we have an orderly process for people to come in, but we're also giving an opportunity for those who are already in the United States to be able to achieve a pathway to citizenship so that they don't have to live in the shadows, and their children and their grandchildren can have a full participation in the United States. So I'm confident we can get it done.Oh, excuse me -- I know this wasn't directed at me, but I just want to make one quick point on Honduras, because you repeated something that I've heard before. The same critics who say that the United States has not intervened enough in Honduras are the same people who say that we're always intervening, and the Yankees need to get out of Latin America. You can't have it both ways.We have been very clear in our belief that President Zelaya was removed from office illegally, that it was a coup, and that he should return. We have cooperated with all the international bodies in sending that message. Now, if these critics think that it's appropriate for us to suddenly act in ways that in every other context they consider inappropriate, then I think what that indicates is, is that maybe there's some hypocrisy involved in their approach to U.S.-Latin America relations that certainly is not going to guide my administration policies.

PRESIDENT CALDERÓN: (As translated.) Thank you. I will now make the most of this question. Now, in regard to migration, actually many of the people who work in the United States, who live in the shadow, live in the state or come from Jalisco, the state. These are people who have migrated in order to build a better future for their families. All of them, or most of them, have enormously contributed to the American society and the American economy, and it is unthinkable to see that the U.S., the main power, the main economic power in the world, without the contribution of the Mexican laborers and workers. This is not only a goodwill statement.And during our meeting, we handed the delegations the benefits of North America and what the Mexican population represents in terms of age in regards to the total population in the U.S. The only way to have sustained progress throughout the North American region, especially, is allowing for the natural economic processes, for integration can happen, and this implies a labor mobility that cannot be determined by mandate or by decree.This is what we have underscored with President Obama during this meeting, to keep on invoking the protection for the Mexican laborers, whatever their migration conditions are in the United States. And our highest commendment to the way President Obama has tackled this migration issue now.Now, aside from defending the rights of the Mexican laborers in the United States, that one day instead of the Mexican people to have to leave their country because they're hungry or because they have to live their lives, we need an economic scheme where we have great investments coming from the U.S., hailing from Canada, and opening here the labor opportunities that the Mexicans so need.I think President Barack Obama has responded to the topic on -- or to the issue on Honduras -- what we have discussed and agreed as what needs to be done to build the international actions that have been taken in order to reestablish democracy in Honduras; to strengthen the OAS and the delegation that is about to meet in Tegucigalpa -- to build the mediation actions that Oscar Arias, President for Costa Rica and Peace Nobel Prize, is carrying out in order to reestablish the constitutional law in Honduras.This is not about a person or another. This is not about President Zelaya himself, or per se. It is about the constitutional and democratic life that ought to be defended in regard to the international legal framework that we have all agreed upon.And once more, I coincide in the contradiction highlighted by President Obama -- those who have rejected or who have argued about the intervention of the United States in the region are those who now are claiming for the determination or the intervention of the U.S. in the region, no matter how legal this action might be.So we have to resort to international law and international instances beyond the intervention of one single state -- or even more, the intervention of one single person -- to resolve such a dispute and such an issue. This is the path to be taken.

Today we congratulate ourselves that President Obama is leading the administration of the United States. But in the past that happened, but in the future we don't know who might be President next. And I am not of those who share the idea that the U.S. elected as the ultimate judge. And the ultimate resolve is through the intermediation of the affairs in our countries.Yes, we have to open the path to the OAS, to the international organizations, to the regional group that we have formed, such as the Rio Group, such as the groups that are friends of North America, the countries that befriend Honduras, that befriend Central America, that befriend Guatemala. These countries must act on our own accounts, but in observance of the international law and the rules we have settled ourselves. We have to form a group of friends of Honduras that through -- with the help of Oscar Arias and with the help of the OAS and their corresponding actiona.

PRIME MINISTER HARPER: Just briefly, Minister Van Loan and Secretary Napolitano have been -- and our officials have been meeting regularly on management of our shared border. I think we have a good, cooperative relationship in that regard. There's obviously always work to be done.Let me be very clear: From the Canadian perspective, we look at our border as a line between the two closest countries on Earth. We have the largest trading relationship of any two countries on Earth, but we also share security concerns. I've said repeatedly, I say again, there is no such thing as a threat to the security of the United States which is not a threat to the security of Canada. That is why Canada has been a steadfast ally of the United States in NAFTA and NORAD for many, many years.We want to address all the same security issues that the United States wants to address, and we want to do so in a way that doesn't impede commerce and doesn't impede the great social interaction which has made our two countries so close over the decades.I'm just going to also weigh in a little bit, as a friend of the United States, on a question that was posed to President Obama. If I were an American, I would be really fed up with this kind of hypocrisy -- you know, the United States is accused of meddling except when it's accused of not meddling, and the same types of -- same types who are demanding the United States to somehow intervene in Honduras, the same type of people who would condemn longstanding security cooperation between Colombia and the United States, which is being done for legitimate security and drug traffic reasons that is, frankly -- that are in the interests of all the countries of this hemisphere.Mexico and Canada are involved in the mediation effort in supporting -- directly supporting the mediation effort of President Arias. I think the United States has been a -- very, very forcefully, articulated its concerns and its desired outcomes in that regard, and has been very supportive of those of us who are working in the multilateral process to deal with this serious issue in the hemisphere. So I think that's precisely what we want to see from the United States, is a United States that leads on issues of values, but is very supportive of multilateral attempts to deal with challenges that we all face.

PRESIDENT OBAMA: Thank you.

PRESDIENT CALDERÓN: Thank you. Gracias, todos.END 12:36 P.M. (Local)

DOCTOR DOCTORIAN FROM ANGEL OF GOD
then the angel said, Financial crisis will come to Asia. I will shake the world.

JAMES 5:1-3
1 Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you.
2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.
3 Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.

REVELATION 18:10,17,19
10 Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.
17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,
19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.

EZEKIEL 7:19
19 They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be removed: their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the LORD: they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bowels: because it is the stumblingblock of their iniquity.

REVELATION 13:16-18
16 And he(FALSE POPE) causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:(CHIP IMPLANT)
17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.(6-6-6) A NUMBER SYSTEM
