Obama’s speech at Purdue actually addressed nuclear, bio, and cyber threats. The portion addressing proliferation is as follows:

Today, we will focus on nuclear, biological, and cyber threats – three 21st century threats that have been neglected for the last eight years. It’s time to break out of Washington’s conventional thinking that has failed to keep pace with unconventional threats. In doing so, we’ll better ensure the safety of the American people, while building our capacity to deal with other challenges – from public health to privacy.

It starts with the gravest danger we face – nuclear terrorism. One of the terrible ironies of the Iraq War is that President Bush used concern over this threat to invade a country that had no nuclear weapons program. In the meantime, Pakistani scientist AQ Khan was spreading to hostile nations the technology to produce nuclear weapons and the warheads to deliver them. But the fact that the President misled us into a misguided war doesn’t diminish the threat of a terrorist with a weapon of mass destruction – in fact, it has only increased it.

We used to worry about our nuclear stalemate with the Soviet Union. Now, we worry about 50 tons of highly enriched uranium – some of it poorly secured – at civilian nuclear facilities in over forty countries around the world. Now, we worry about the breakdown of a non-proliferation framework that was designed for the bipolar world of the Cold War. Now, we worry – most of all – about a rogue state or nuclear scientist transferring the world’s deadliest weapons to the world’s most dangerous people: terrorists who won’t think twice about killing themselves and hundreds of thousands in Tel Aviv or Moscow, in London or New York. And yet, despite initiatives that cost billions of taxpayer dollars, we still don’t have an adequate strategy for detecting nuclear and biological materials, a problem that’s being discussed at hearings in Congress today.

We cannot wait any longer to protect the American people. I’ve made this a priority in the Senate, where I’ve worked with Indiana’s own Republican Senator Dick Lugar to pass a law accelerating our pursuit of loose nuclear materials. And I’ll lead a global effort to secure all loose nuclear materials around the world during my first term as President.

But we need to do much more. It’s time to send a clear message to the world: America seeks a world with no nuclear weapons. As long as nuclear weapons exist, we’ll retain a strong deterrent. But we’ll make the goal of eliminating all nuclear weapons a central element in our nuclear policy. We’ll negotiate with Russia to achieve deep reductions in both our nuclear arsenals and we’ll work with other nuclear powers to reduce global stockpiles dramatically. We’ll seek a verifiable global ban on the production of fissile material for weapons. And we’ll work with the Senate to ratify the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty and then seek its earliest possible entry into force.

By keeping our commitment under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, we’ll be in a better position to rally international support to bring pressure to bear on nations like North Korea and Iran that violate it. Both of these nations have a history of support for terror. Both should face strong and increasing sanctions if they refuse to verifiably abandon their illicit nuclear programs. And both demand sustained, aggressive, and direct diplomatic attention from the United States, and that’s what I’ll provide as President.”

In a recent commercial business meeting with Chinese colleagues, when discussing my recent global consultant assignments helping US coporate entities win over investors by saving big bucks in my successful “outsourcing” of IT/software development work to India where the value and cost-savings could be realized while to my dismay no one cared that American jobs were being sent overseas as long as the stockholders gained, a discussion ensued about China and India as well as the US and it was interesting to hear from the esteemed Chinese at the table that their leadership is comprised of those having pursued educational and professional training in the science and mathematical disciplines, while those in leadership roles in the west and especially in the US were lawyers.

Therefore, given the fact that on both the Democratic and Republican side of the aisle, our esteemd beltway-boys who may point the finger at George Bush and his administration as the fall guy, but as a global business consultant who interacts with Euroepans and Asians daily, while these Sentators and Congressmen cannot see past themselves their blatent incompetencies portrayed on their watch where we have entrusted them, these “lawyers” and businessmen will never look to the skies, however I trust our astute and highly regarded military leaders who are quite aware of the scientific and mathematical disciplines and are quite cognizant that while nuclear and bio threats are surely a very significant concern, looking to the skies and beyond in the cyber and technological tools becoming available in sophisticated technology in weaponry is hopefully apparent to the Generals we respect so much and appreciate very dearly in our security today and tomorrow when nations will challenge each other in what I refer to as, Above the Clouds Advanced Technology (ACAT), thus cyber threats for me are first on the list paralleling a world which finds no peace under the tree of Life!
