"In the end, then, what is called for is nothing more, and nothing less, than what all the world's great religions demand - that we do unto others as we would have them do unto us. Let us be our brother's keeper, Scripture tells us. Let us be our sister's keeper. Let us find that common stake we all have in one another, and let our politics reflect that spirit as well." "A More Perfect Union" Remarks of Senator Barack Obama Constitution Center Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Tuesday 18 March 2008
