Section 3. Recognizing the main idea.
1. 2 years ago, when I landed on your soil, I said to the people of the Philippines, Whence I came, I shall return.
Tonight, I repeat those words, I shall return.
2. I have a dream, that one day one the red hills of Georgia,
sons of former slaves and the sons of the former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.
I have a dream, that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice,
sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.
I have a dream, that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not judged by the color of their skin,
but by the content of their character.
3. One thought him indestructible, so overpowering was he in his energy, warmth and his deep faith in man's inherent goodness.
For 25 years, he had been my friend, my older brother, my inspiration and my teacher.
4. I have said this before, but I shall say it again, and again and again.
Your boys are not going to be sent into any foreign wars.
5. I have never been a quitter.
To leave office before my term is completed is abhorrent to every instinct in my body.
But as a president, I must put the interests of America first.
America needs a full-time president and a full-time Congress, particularly at this time, with problems we face at home and broad.
To continue, to fight through the months ahead for my personal vindication
would almost totally absorb the time and attention of both the President and the Congress
in a period when our entire focus should be on the great issues of peace abroad and prosperity without our inflation at home.
6. In the past several months, I have been living in purgatory.
I have found myself the recipient of undefined, unclear,
unattributed accusations that have surfaced in the largest and the most widely circulated organs of our communications media.
I want to say at this point, clearly and unequivocally, I am innocent of the charges against me.
