excerpt from Remarks by the President on Promoting Community Broadband
by Barack Obama
When I first came into office and we were trying to make sure that we prevented a Great Depression but also start building some foundations
for long-term growth, we built or improved more than 113,000 miles of network infrastructure throughout the country....
But-and this is why I'm here-we've still got a lot of work to do. Right now, about 45 million Americans cannot purchase next-generation
broadband. And that next generation of broadband creates connections that are six or seven times faster than today's basic speeds. And by the
way, only about half of rural Americans can log on at that super-fast rate.
