Address America

I was listening to NPR on the way home and I heard this story about a contest the Constitutional Center held. The National Constitution Center and SMITH Magazine ask participants to help President -elect Obama inspire America. In six words, give him guidance. Offer ideas for his inaugural address. Six memorable words for January 20th.I n six words, a President can say a lot: "To bind up the nation’s wounds" (Abraham Lincoln, 1865) "Pay any price, bear any burden" (John F. Kennedy, 1961).

The winners of the contest are:"Divided by fear, united in hope." (GRAND PRIZE WINNER)Submitted by Donna Formica-Wilsey of Philadelphia, PA
