George W. Bush was elected in 2000 under many disputes over vote counting. With a slowing economy Bush's focus was on cutting taxes and trying to get the economy moving again. The Terrorist attacks on September 11th 2001 shifted all of the administrations focus from domestic issues towards foreign policies and anti terrorism. The war in Afghanistan and The War in Iraq caused Bush's popularity to plummet. He was re elected and the problems seemed to continue on both foreign and domestic issues. Bush's Presidency came under fire repeatedly for the failing economy and the huge spending on the wars.

On September 11 2001, America felt its vulnerability even to threats that gather on the other side of the Earth. We resolved then, and we are resolved today, to confront every threat from any source that could bring sudden terror and suffering to America.

People make suggestions on what to say all the time. I'll give you an example; I don't read what's handed to me. People say, 'Here, here's your speech, or here's an idea for a speech.' They're changed. Trust me.
