Last Friday, we learned that during the second quarter of 2007, the economy grew at a 3.4 percent annual rate. Real Gross Domestic Product has now expanded for 23 consecutive quarters, or nearly six years. The economy is now 17 percent larger, after inflation, than it was when President Bush took office.

Good Afternoon. It is a pleasure to be with you to discuss todays White House Conference on the Americas, and our nations broader commitment to the social, political and economic advancement of the Western Hemisphere. We recognize the great importance of our neighbors to the South; in fact, when I became Under Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy, President Bush asked me to make Latin America one of my priorities.
