Shared responsibility

Barack Obama (http://www.salon.com/news/primary_sources/2009/01/20/obama_inauguration/index1.html), 2009:
What is required of us now is a new era of responsibility - a recognition, on the part of every American, that we have duties to ourselves, our nation, and the world, duties that we do not grudgingly accept but rather seize gladly, firm in the knowledge that there is nothing so satisfying to the spirit, so defining of our character, than giving our all to a difficult task. George W. Bush (http://www.pbs.org/newshour/election2000/gopconvention/george_w_bush3.html), 2000:
A hundred years from now, this must not be remembered as an age rich in possessions and poor in ideals.
Instead, we must usher in an era of responsibility.
Bill Clinton (http://www.bartleby.com/124/pres64.html), 1993:
We must do what America does best: offer more opportunity to all and demand responsibility from all.
It is time to break the bad habit of expecting something for nothing, from our government or from each other. Let us all take more responsibility, not only for ourselves and our families but for our communities and our country.
