his people at the nlrb said the boeing can i build a factory in south carolina because there is not a union factory. they are wrong. we believe in free enterprise. [applause] the president seems to be pursuing a policy internationally of appeasement. perhaps sensing that other nations are growing stronger and that america cannot lead during the next century as we need to be nice to everybody because we all share common interests. i do not agree. i think some people than not share our interests. some seek to suppress other people. that thing some have the intent of expanding their power to other nations. i believe the right course is not to appease other nations are to assume that america will be in decline, but to recognize this century must be an american century and we must continue to lead the world. [applause] the president's path is one of declining investment and the military. i hope you saw the significance of this decision to cut $350 billion out of our military budget and his plans to go ahead and cut of the 650 billion. we will cease from being able to engage into conflicts
