Obama's second inaugural address and liberal vision for the second term as U.S. president 2013-2016

01/21/2013

A sense of urgency in the second inaugural address in 2012, a sense that the vision and purpose that Obama brought to the presidency four years ago is slipping away after years battling the economic crisis and working to bring health insurance to uninsured Americans. Most of the immigration agenda is still untouched, and only faltering progress in other areas. An even broader agenda with climate change, promoting gender equality, with continuing battles over the deficit and a short window of 2 years leaves less time.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
