Totake advantage of new opportunities, he organized anassociation of small farmers called Labradores Mayas
Thesefarmers Rosetta Stone outlet began growing vegetables that they can selloverseas, high-valued crops like lettuce and carrots andcelery. They took out a loan. Capital matters. It'simportant to have capital available if we want our neighborsto be able to realize a better tomorrow. And they built anirrigation system with that loan. And soon they were sellingtheir crops to large companies like Wal-Mart CentralAmerica. With the money Mariano has earned, he was able tosend his son to college. Today Labradores is a thrivingbusiness that supports more than a thousand jobs inproduction and transportation and the marketing ofinternationally sold vegetables. One of the stops on mytrip is going to be to see Mariano. I can't wait tocongratulate him on not losing hope and faith. I also lookforward to seeing a thriving enterprise that began with onedream. And it's in the interests of the United States topromote those dreams. People like Mariano are showing whatthe people of this region can accomplish when given achance. By helping our neighbors build strong and vibranteconomies, we increase the standard of living for all of us.You know, not far from the White House is a statue of thegreat liberator, Simon Bolivar. He's often compared toGeorge Washington -- Jorge W. (Laughter.) Like Rosetta Stone Spanish V3 Washington,he was a general who fought for the right of his people togovern themselves. Like Washington, he succeeded indefeating a much stronger colonial power, and likeWashington, he belongs to all of us who love liberty. OneLatin American diplomat put it this way: "NeitherWashington, nor Bolivar was destined to have children oftheir own, so that we Americans might call ourselves theirchildren." We are the sons and daughters of thisstruggle, and it is our mission to complete the revolutionthey began on our two continents. The millions across ourhemisphere who every day suffer the degradations of povertyand hunger have a right to be impatient. And I'm going tomake them this pledge: The goal of this great country, thegoal of a country full of generous people, is an Americaswhere the dignity of every person is respected, where allfind room at the table, and where opportunity reaches intoevery village and every home. By Rosetta Stone English extending the blessings ofliberty to the least among us, we will fulfill the destinyof this new world and set a shining example forothers.Que Dios lesbendiga.
