America is addicted to oil...We must also change how we power our automobiles. We will increase our research in better batteries for hybrid and electric cars and in pollution-free cars that run on hydrogen.

The best way to encourage economic vitality and growth is to let people keep their own money.When you spend your own money, somebody's got to manufacture that which you're spending it on. You see, more money in the private sector circulating makes it more likely that our economy will grow. And, incredibly enough, some want to take away part of those tax cuts. They've been reading the wrong textbook. You don't raise somebody's taxes in the middle of a recession. You trust people with their own money. And, by the way, that money isn't the government's money; it's the people's money.

I understand there are still votes to be counted, but I am in the process of planning in a responsible way a new administration.
I urge the citizens to listen carefully to the instructions provided by state and local authorities and follow them,
Braving deadly attacks and threats of violence, Afghans voted in large numbers,
Even the most destructive storm cannot weaken the heart and soul of our nation, ... America will overcome this ordeal, and we will be stronger for it.
